Location rule and boundary evidence
Where the reviewed rules apply
No buyer address is selected. These maps do not establish financial eligibility, funding availability, or property approval.
No current, human-approved coverage policy is available. Imported location labels and provider offices are not proof of coverage.
What would paying it back look like?
You never pay this back — it's a grant. It covers closing costs only, and you use it alongside an eligible Virginia Housing VA or USDA loan.
These terms describe the assistance. Any mortgage used to buy the home has its own repayment terms. Check the provider's documents before accepting an offer.
Could this be a fit for me?
