I’ve heard this one more times than I can count: “I’m not sure I qualify because I never saw combat.” That’s a myth, and it’s one that’s costing veterans real money. You do not have to have been deployed to a combat zone to use your VA loan benefit. Understood.
Michael and Joshua break down the actual VA loan eligibility requirements, what types of service qualify, how long you had to serve, what the different discharge statuses mean, and why stateside duty, non-combat zones, and desk assignments all count. The VA home loan was designed for people who served. Period. Not people who served in a specific way.
If a veteran in your life passed on this benefit because they thought they didn’t qualify, send them this episode. Subscribe to Home Buying Made Easy every week for more myth-busting.
