18 VA Funding Fee CHART 18
19 Veterans Can Use the VA Home Loan Benefit Multiple Times! Here s how it works: VA provides each qualified Veteran with at least $104,250 in entitlement and extra entitlement in select high cost counties. Entitlement has a 25% rule you have to have 25% of the loan amount in entitlement to guarantee the loan. When a Veteran obtains a VA loan, a portion of the entitlement is charged to the loan as a guaranty to the lender in the event of default 19
20 How to calculate entitlement Entitlement Examples Full Entitlement Reduced Entitlement High Cost County (Camden, NJ) Non-High cost County Loan Amount $200,000 $200,000 $940,000 $940,000 Value $200,000 $200,000 $940,000 $940,000 Entitlement Available Entitlement Required Equity or Down payment needed Max Loan Amount $104,250 $25,000 $235,000 $104,250 $50,000 $50,000 $235,000 $235,000 $0 $25,000 $0 $130,750 $200,000 $175,000 $940,000 $809,250 All qualified Veterans start out with: $36,000 in basic entitlement; and $68,250 in bonus entitlement or $120,375 bonus in AK and HI Extra entitlement for high cost counties available to county limit (see chart in GURU) Note: Bonus entitlement can only be applied to loan amounts > $144,000 The math: $104,250 in entitlement x 25% = $417,000 20
21 Pricing a VA Loan 21
22 How You Earn Your compensation Client Paid Compensation (Direct) VA mandates that total origination charges not exceed 1%.

31 VA Survival Guide Underwriting and Structuring the loan 31
32 basic underwriting: The Diff Military Income Active Duty Additional income may be used for qualification BAS, BAH, OHA, Combat Pay, etc. Cannot be grossed up Look for allotments on LES If ETS is < 12 months from closing date Client must prove re-enlisted, or Civilian offer letter Assets Only need reserves if using rental income or if loan is Refer/Eligible 32
33 basic underwriting: The Diff Only one Qualifying Ratio = 41% To exceed 41% ratio, the veteran must have 20% additional residual income above the required amount and obtain Approve/Eligible Findings Residual Income requirements must be satisfied Residual income must be greater or equal to amount established for applicable region, income level, and family size Residual is calculated by number in family, geographic location and square footage of subject property Include all household members in family size 33
34 Key Questions for residual income calculation Are you located within 30 miles of a military base? Reduction in Residual Income calculation How much are your monthly tax withholdings? (Federal/State/SSI/FICA) How many dependents do you have? What are their ages? Residual calculation is dependent on number in household How much are your monthly child care expenses? Required for children ages 12 and younger What s the square footage (gross living area) of your home? Utilities and Maintenance expense is $0.14 x GLA 34
35 Residual Income chart 35
36 5 instances allow a veteran to get more than one VA loan: 1. They can use left-over entitlement that was not charged to a prior loan. 2. They can sell the property to pay off the previous VA loan and restore the entitlement. 3. They can pay off a VA loan (by paying it down or refinancing), and restore the entitlement. VA allows entitlement to be restored using this method only once. 4. They can refinance the old VA loan into a new VA loan to reduce the rate and payment or convert your ARM into a Fixed. In this case, the entitlement from the prior loan transfers to the new loan. 5. Another qualified Veteran can assume the prior VA loan (subject to lender approval) and substitute his/her own entitlement. 36
37 PURCHASE MONEY: Seller Concessions 4% Max Seller Concessions Does not include normal and customary closing costs or discount points of up to 2% 4% includes: Paying over 2% in discount points Paying veterans debt to qualify for the loan Payment of veterans judgments Funding Fee Prepayment of property taxes and insurance 37
