VA vs. FHA vs. Conventional Loans: Which Saves More?

Compare VA, FHA, and conventional financing by down payment, mortgage insurance, closing costs, and the full monthly payment.

The direct answer

No loan type wins every time. Eligible Veterans often benefit from a VA loan because it can offer no required down payment and no monthly mortgage insurance, but the right comparison must use the same purchase price, rate structure, costs, and holding period.

What this video covers

  • How VA, FHA, and conventional loans differ
  • Why the monthly payment matters more than one advertised rate
  • Which costs deserve a side-by-side comparison
