VA provides 31.1% fewer home purchase loans in South Dakota in 2nd quarter

Re 6

There were 277 VA home purchases in South Dakota in the second quarter of the VA's fiscal year 2021, totaling $78.8 million in loans, according to figures provided by the Veterans Affairs Home Loans Index.

By comparison, there were 402 VA funded home purchases in South Dakota for the first quarter, totaling $111.6 million.

The VA assists service members, veterans, and eligible surviving spouses in achieving homeownership through loans provided by banks and mortgage companies.

A portion of the loan is guaranteed by the VA, which allows the lender to provide better rates.

Several VA housing programs can help members buy, build or repair their homes. Benefits may include home purchase loans, interest rate reduction refinance loans, and adapted housing grants geared toward veterans with a service-connected disability.
