We want to help veterans get great homes.

If you’re a veteran, you may be eligible for a mortgage loan with Easthigh Credit Union guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). This special program for veterans makes it easier to finance the purchase of a new home. The VA guarantees repayment of loans made to qualifying veterans, often with no down payment.

Perfect for you if:

You have served our country in the armed forces.
You’re looking for a home you can afford.
You need a mortgage with low or no down payment.
