Is Co-Signing Possible with VA Loans?

Are you thinking about getting co-signed loans? This is also possible with VA loans. A veteran who wants to get a VA loan can have his or her legally married spouse to co-sign the loan. There are also other possible co-signing options. For example, two unmarried persons can co-sign on VA loans provided that they are both unmarried memvers of the military.

Co-signing will not affect the loan in any major way. You still get entitled to the VA guaranty program, and lenders will still consider you as a low-risk borrower endorsed completely by the VA.

However, if you want to get a VA loan co-signed with an individual not related to you and is not a member of the military, this is also allowed but the VA will guaranty only the veteran/military member’s part or interest in the said property. This, however, is not supported by all lenders, so you have to find a lender that allows it if you want this kind of mixed loan setup. You may have to check out several different lenders first before you can find a lender who is willing to grant the said loan.
