A one-time fee of 2.15% (first use, zero down) charged at closing. It can be rolled into the loan balance. Veterans with 10%+ VA disability rating are completely exempt. With 5% down, the fee drops to 1.5%. With 10% down, it drops to 1.25%.

For veterans with full entitlement, there is no loan limit โ you can borrow any amount a lender will approve with zero down. Veterans with reduced entitlement (existing VA loan) may have limits based on county conforming loan limits.
