VA Home Loan Affordability Act

Introduced·4/27/26

The VA Home Loan Affordability Act amends the Department of Veterans Affairs' housing loan program to align with Federal Housing Administration.

The VA Home Loan Affordability Act makes several changes to the Department of Veterans Affairs' housing loan program. It expands guaranteed loans for condominiums, sets maximum closing costs and seller fees for guaranteed loans, and requires a review of appraisal minimum property requirements. The bill also prohibits the requirement of third-party verification of lender fees, mandates regular prescription of debt-to-income ratios, and requires a minimum experience of an appraiser.
