VA Loans — Valor Program

The VA home loan benefit is one of the most valuable — and most underutilized — financial tools available to those who served. Blue Arrow Lending's Valor Program is dedicated to helping veterans, active-duty service members, National Guard members, reservists, and surviving spouses make the most of this earned benefit. Our team specializes in VA loans — we understand the COE process, VA appraisal quirks, and every nuance that affects your closing.

The Valor Program Difference

At Blue Arrow Lending, we don't just process VA loans — we specialize in them. Our Valor Program means Jenn's team deeply understands how to structure your loan, communicate with VA appraisers, and navigate the entitlement system to your maximum benefit. Veterans deserve to work with a team that treats this benefit with the respect it has earned.

VA Funding Fee: What You Should Know

Most VA borrowers pay a one-time funding fee: 1.25%–2.15% for first-time use with 0% down (lower if you put something down). The fee can be financed into the loan. Critically: veterans with a service-connected disability rating of 10% or higher are exempt from the funding fee entirely — a fact many lenders fail to proactively communicate. Our team verifies your exemption status upfront, every time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Generally: veterans with 90+ consecutive days of active duty during wartime or 181 days during peacetime, National Guard/Reserve with 6+ years of service, and surviving spouses of veterans who died in service or from a service-connected disability. Our team will verify your eligibility quickly.

Our team handles this for you. We can often obtain your COE electronically within minutes using VA's WebLGY system. You don't need to obtain it yourself before applying with us.

Yes. Your VA entitlement is reusable. If you've paid off a prior VA loan and sold the property, your full entitlement is restored. You can also have more than one VA loan simultaneously in some circumstances.

The VA funding fee may be deductible as mortgage interest. Consult your tax advisor for guidance specific to your situation. Veterans with a service-connected disability rating may have the fee waived entirely.
