The best loan product in the market right now is a VA loan, but a VA construction loan is one of the most difficult loan products to find..But it sounds like you're looking for a VA rehab loan, which is even more difficult to find. Understand that VA does not lend money, they only insure loans against default.. the lenders, or those with the $$$, will oftentimes have their own set of rules above what VA calls for.. it's these "Overlays" that make financing options different from one lender to another.. so for that reason, most will opt out of doing VA construction and rehab loans.. so if your looking for a home, and foreclosures are ok.. so long as the home is in satisfactory condition, you can buy it with VA and no money down, but you will need to use your own funds to do the improvements... unless you find that "needle in the haystack" lender who actually does VA construction/rehab loans..
