Virginia Housing Programs

Virginia Housing loans can be extremely attractive to first-time homebuyers

It can be hard to come up with the money to buy your first home. We understand that.

The agency offers an array of special rates and loan programs for first-time homebuyers to make homeownership more affordable. The qualifying guidelines are different from other loans, too, with most requiring little or no down payment. Your Atlantic Union Bank Mortgage Loan Officer can help you figure out which option might work best for you. Additional resources from Virginia Housing can be found here.

Representative example of a Virginia Housing Loan with 97% Financing: A down payment of three percent (3%) of the purchase price or appraised value (whichever is lower) may be required. Example: For a loan amount of $388,000, monthly principal and interest payments of $2,112.61 at a 5.794% APR (Annual Percentage Rate), fixed for 360 months. The monthly payment does not include amounts for taxes and insurance premiums; the actual payment obligation will be greater.
