Pretty self explanitory, Has anyone here used the VA to buy a home? If so, was it a pain and is it worth it?

Personally speaking it's a good experience in all aspects. My spouse and I bought and paid for our first home thanks to a VA Loan. After losing my spouse in a car accident, I relocated to a different state to be near family. Their I purchased a second home using a VA Loan. As long as you make your paments on time, you'll have no trouble. That's how it is with any loan, but VA has the best interest rates!

Yes and it is worth it long as you have verified income and good credit just what ever you do buy what you want to in sure the market supports the price and make sure of the taxes land rights what they are and local laws where you buy , and know when you get done paying down the down payment your good with VA at that point and if you feel like refinance I would not unless you get at least 2 points because in times like this interest rates dropped so far that most the time not always you get a automatic drop to current low
