Quick answer — VA loans let eligible Las Vegas Veterans and active-duty buyers purchase with $0 down and no monthly PMI. With full entitlement there is no VA loan limit in Clark County (2026); most buyers pay a one-time VA funding fee (usually financed into the loan, and waived for service-connected disabled Veterans). Valley West Mortgage prices and underwrites your file with a local Las Vegas team. See VA loan requirements in Nevada or the down-payment assistance guide to stack Nevada programs with your VA benefit. Updated July 2026 · Reviewed by Vatche Saatdjian, NMLS #65506.
Who a VA loan is for

Common questions
VA loans, answered.
For first-time use with $0 down, the funding fee is 2.15% of the loan amount on the 2026 schedule; subsequent use is 3.3%. Veterans receiving compensation for a service-connected disability are typically exempt. The fee can be financed into the loan rather than paid in cash.
Correct. VA loans never carry PMI or monthly mortgage insurance — one of the biggest monthly-payment advantages over a low-down conventional or an FHA loan, where insurance can add hundreds per month.
The Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan is the VA streamline. If you already have a VA loan, it lets you refinance to a lower rate with minimal documentation — often no new appraisal and no income verification.
A big bank hands you one rate sheet and a 1-800 number. Valley West is a local mortgage lender — we put a local team on your file to fit your file, guide you through every step with a Las Vegas team, and answer the phone when you call. Fewer hands in your file, local guidance, and straight answers from people who know Clark County.
Most VA purchases in Clark County close in about 30 days from accepted offer. IRRRL refinances frequently close in 15–21 days, depending on appraisal scheduling, title, and document turnaround.
The VA sets no minimum credit score — the lender does. We work with many files in the 580–620 range and up, and a stronger score earns a lower rate. Residual income and your overall profile weigh as heavily as the number itself.
Yes. Your VA entitlement can be restored and reused — typically after you sell and pay off a prior VA loan, and in some cases while keeping one. Many veterans finance several homes with the benefit over a lifetime.
Your COE confirms your VA loan entitlement. We pull it for you electronically in most cases — often within minutes — using your service details. You can also request it yourself through the VA's eBenefits portal.
Your eligibility is

One application. One local team, and a clear path to your strongest VA option — $0 down, no PMI, handled by your local team.
