Veteran Tip: VA Loans Provide Flexibility

If you’re a veteran or active-duty family, here’s a benefit you may not know: VA loans don’t restrict where you buy based on ZIP code, district, or community. That means you can focus on what matters most - your budget, your commute, and your family’s goals.
