Buy with your VA benefit

From contract to closing

The last steps, and what to read before you sign.

5 minute read

Before closing

  • A VA-approved appraiser appraises the home as part of the loan.
  • Your lender must give you a Closing Disclosure before closing. Read it carefully: loan terms, fees, closing costs and monthly payment.

At closing

  • Closing may be at a title company, escrow office or attorney's office. Take time to read everything and ask questions before you sign.
  • Your lender, title and escrow handle transaction specifics. Vanguard's role is education.
