what's the max amount i can borrow with a VA loan that will still get me 100% financing?

the area i live is relatively pricey and homes i'm looking at are $600-$700K. Would I be able to borrow up to those amounts on a VA mortgage and still pay no money down? fico = 734 by dropdeadgoji78462... from Ojai, California. Jun 9th 2014 Reply

Assuming you have 100% of your entitlement available, then Ventura County has a maximum loan amount of $598,000. Anything above that you will need to put $$$ down.. I'm a Broker here in Scottsdale AZ and I only lend in Arizona. If you or someone you know is looking for financing options, feel free to contact me or pass along my information. William J.

You will most likely have to put money down depending on the county.

Hi Ojai buyer,The maximum Ventura County guarantee is computed based on the now REVISED Ventura limit of $598,000. The Maximum Guaranty and Entitlement Available is 25% of this amount, or $149,500. For a $700,000 purchase, you would need a guaranty of 25% of the purchase price, which would be $175,000. The difference between the $175,000 needed, and the $149,500 available would need to be paid in cash as a down payment. In other words, with a $700,000 purchase, you could not get 100% financing in Ventura County. But you could purchase that house with as little as $25,500, which is still pretty amazing. The $600,000 house would require a 25% guaranty of $150,000, and the available is $149,500, so you would need to put down $500. A $650,000 purchase would need a 25% guaranty of $162,500, so you would need to put down $13,000. I am very close to you in Santa Barbara, and an expert on VA loans, so call or email me via my profile. I can help.Sincerely, Dan Marchiando

Unfortunatly in your county that is not possible, you would need a 25% investment for every dollar over the 598K VA County loan limit.....I am a fellow veteran and have specialized in VA lending since 1998 feel free to contact me direct for a no obligation consultation...
