At Veteran MortgageOne, we believe that for all you and your family have sacrificed, you deserve to be seen as more than a number.

Everything you need to know about VA loans and how Veteran MortgageOne works.
The Department of Veterans Affairs does not set a minimum credit score for VA loans. At Veteran MortgageOne, we have no minimum credit score requirement. We evaluate your full financial picture — including your last 12 months of payment history — rather than relying solely on a credit score number.
By following the guidelines as written by the VA with no lender overlays. In addition, we originate your loan in-house, from processing to closing and servicing. All of these services allow us to offer loans to veterans without taking credit scores into consideration.
While other lenders charge points or additional fees to veterans with a lower credit score, the cost for your home loan will be very similar to other veterans with high credit scores. Most of our clients purchase a home with no money out of pocket at closing.
Now that you understand the VA does not require a credit score, reach out to us. We will talk about your goals, timelines, and put together a customized mortgage game plan. We would be honored to serve you.
Because everything is handled in-house from processing to closing, we have been able to close in as little as two weeks in urgent situations. Speed and reliability are our specialty.
Yes — in many cases. VA guidelines are more flexible than conventional loans when it comes to past credit events.

Call us — the answer may surprise you.
