FHA and VA rates are upped for Hawaii

By
Real Estate Agent with KW Kauai

 The loan limits for FHA and VA have increased again and that is helpful for buyer's using those types of programs. There are additional incentives in the government's new programs to make it easier to buy homes using these programs. FHA only requires 3.5% down PLUS they have programs where you can also finance any upgrades or improvements you wish to make to the home.

Some of our Kauai lenders have more experience and focus on these types of FHA and VA loans. If you qualify for any of these programs, it may be worth checking out.

I am glad they held the limits ups for Hawaii.  With the high dollar value of homes here it is so important.

I agree. Sounds like because of your market focus you do a lot of VA stuff. I have not done one yet, but vets sure have a good thing going.
