📐 How VA loans work

VA loans are backed by the Department of Veterans Affairs with unique benefits. Here's how the costs break down:

VA loan costs:

Total Monthly Payment = PI + Funding Fee + Tax + Insurance + HOA
Funding Fee = Loan Amount × Fee Percentage
  • PI = Principal & Interest (standard mortgage)
  • No PMI = VA loans have no mortgage insurance!
  • Funding Fee = One-time fee (0-3.6% depending on down payment)
  • VA Benefit = Zero down payment available
Example: $350,000 home, 0% down, 6.5% rate
Base payment = $2,210/mo
No PMI = $0/mo
Total payment = $2,550/mo (incl. taxes/insurance)

Key insight: VA loans offer the best terms available - no down payment, no PMI, and competitive rates. This can save you thousands compared to conventional or FHA loans.

Formula Used

Monthly payment = P × [r(1 + r)^n] ÷ [(1 + r)^n − 1]
P = principal, r = periodic interest rate, n = number of payments.

How the formula is applied

The calculator applies the entered principal or balance, periodic interest rate, repayment term and any supported fees or extra payments. Payment and interest figures depend on compounding frequency, payment timing and which taxes, insurance or charges are included.
