VA raises GI loan rate to five and a half percent
The Veterans Administration lifted the rate on VA insured home loans from five and a quarter to five and a half percent effective immediately to match FHA moves and improve private lending availability amid tight money conditions. About 275,000 borrowers will be affected this year, while existing 4 million VA loans remain at five and a quarter percent. The GI bill now requires a one half of 1 percent principal insurance premium paid at loan start.
