VA provides 21.7% more home purchase loans in Montana in 3rd quarter

Re 12

There were 494 VA home purchases in Montana in the third quarter of the VA's fiscal year 2021, totaling $178.8 million in loans, according to figures provided by the Veterans Affairs Home Loans Index.

By comparison, there were 406 VA funded home purchases in Montana for the second quarter, totaling $141.2 million.

The VA assists service members, veterans, and eligible surviving spouses in achieving homeownership through loans provided by banks and mortgage companies.

A portion of the loan is guaranteed by the VA, which allows the lender to provide better rates.

Several VA housing programs can help members buy, build or repair their homes. Benefits may include home purchase loans, interest rate reduction refinance loans, and adapted housing grants geared toward veterans with a service-connected disability.

The VA's fiscal year stretches from Oct. 1 to Sept. 30.
