No overlays. No minimum credit score. Just real VA loan approvals for buyers across the Valley.
VA Loans with No Minimum Credit Score in Phoenix
VA Loans with No Minimum Credit Score in Phoenix — serving Veterans, active-duty service members, and surviving spouses across Maricopa County. We retrieve your COE, confirm entitlement, and provide strong approvals for purchases and refinances, with $0 down potential, no PMI, and manual underwriting available when AUS is limited.
Why “No Minimum Credit Score” is Different Here
Many lenders add overlays requiring fixed credit scores. We don’t. VA guidelines allow approvals without a set minimum when other factors are strong — like stable housing history, residual income, and low payment shock. When AUS doesn’t approve, we evaluate for manual underwriting, documenting compensating factors to get your file across the finish line. Read about our VA no-minimum credit score approach.
Eligibility, COE Retrieval, and Entitlement
We start by confirming your VA eligibility and pulling your Certificate of Eligibility (COE). With full entitlement, VA doesn’t cap your purchase price; with partial entitlement (from an existing VA loan), we calculate down payment needs using the Maricopa County conforming limit ($647,200 for standard VA, $806,500 for high balance in 2025). Ask us to pull your COE.
