Certificate of Reasonable Value

DEFINITION

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut elit tellus, luctus nec ullamcorper mattis, pulvinar dapibus leo.

EXPLANATION

The value that the Veterans Administration places upon a property, which is defined by the   Certificate of Reasonable Value, is directly tied to the maximum value of a loan the VA is willing to guarantee for the purchase of that property.

-Example

Verne Veteran has picked out a home he would like to purchase and is planning on using a VA   guaranteed home loan to do so. Before he can take out the loan, the Veterans Administration examines an appraisal of the home’s value, determining it to be $540,000. Therefore, the maximum value of a VA loan on that property would be $540,000.
