Q: The Veterans Benefits Act of 2004 - How does the Veterans Benefits Act change my loan process and entitlements?
A: The Veterans Benefits Act of 2004 made many changes to the VA loan process. If you haven't had to get eligibility or otherwise deal with the VA for a loan since the act passed, you may be surprised at the changes. One of the major differences; the maximum guaranty amount of $60,000 has been modified. Now, for qualifying loans in excess of $144,000, the maximum is a sum equal to 25 percent of the Freddie Mac conforming loan limit, which is determined under the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation Act. If you feel your VA mortgage may be affected by changes created by the Veterans Benefits Act, contact your lender for more information.
