Thank you Home.com for reaching out and asking me to share my expertise as a REALTOR. Here’s what I said:
“Because they don’t need to put any money down on the loan, these buyers often have more cash at their disposal to pay for their closing costs or appraisal differences.”
“One of the most rewarding things about accepting an offer with a VA loan is knowing that you are showing a veteran that you appreciate his or her service,” Serviss said. “It can seem like a small gesture, but it can have a huge impact on that service member or veteran.”
They can negotiate with the buyer to find a number that works for both parties. However, the seller must pay a portion of the buyer’s escrow fee, according to REALTOR® Nicole Serviss, and the cost can vary from state to state.
The whole article is a very thorough rundown of everything you need to know about why you should accept an offer with a VA loan. See the full article —> HERE
