For Veterans

There are no minimum credit score requirements

At Veteran MortgageOne, we believe that for all you and your family have sacrificed, you deserve to be seen as more than a number. Although you may have heard 580 or 620 credit scores associated with VA loans — we do not require a minimum credit score. As a direct lender, we have the flexibility and resources to look beyond your credit score and create a loan that fits your unique needs and timeline.

What does the VA require?

The Department of Veterans Affairs established a handbook which requires lenders to follow the guidance laid out in the pamphlet. Regardless of what you read online or what your friend or Realtor tells you, the VA handbook is the final decision.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked
Questions

Everything you need to know about VA loans and how Veteran MortgageOne works.

What are the minimum credit score requirements for a VA loan?
+

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.

Why can you offer VA loans when others can't?
+

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.

Does a lower credit score affect my VA loan closing costs?
+

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.

What is the next step to get started?
+

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.

How fast can I close on my home?
+

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.

Can I get a VA loan if I've had a bankruptcy or foreclosure?
+

Yes — in many cases. VA guidelines are more flexible than conventional loans when it comes to past credit events. Many veterans qualify for a VA loan just 2 years after a Chapter 7 bankruptcy or foreclosure if they've maintained clean credit since. Our all-time lowest approved credit score for a VA loan is 447. Call us — the answer may surprise you.
