Do VA loans have monthly mortgage insurance?

VA loans generally do not require monthly mortgage insurance. A one-time VA funding fee may apply and can vary by service history, loan use, down payment, and exemption status. Other housing costs, including homeowners insurance, taxes, and association dues, still affect the monthly payment.

What else should I know?

Compare the complete payment and cash-to-close, not only the mortgage-insurance line. Confirm any funding-fee exemption with official documentation.

First Equity provides calm, specific guidance based on verified current requirements. Final approval depends on a complete application and underwriting.
