VA seller concessions are one of the most powerful — and misunderstood — benefits available to veterans buying homes in Brevard County. With a VA loan, sellers can pay all buyer closing costs and contribute up to 4% of the purchase price in additional concessions, helping many veterans move into a home with little or even $0 due at closing.
What Closing Costs Does the VA Allow Sellers to Pay
With a VA loan, sellers are permitted to cover:
✔ All Buyer Closing Costs
There is no cap on seller-paid closing costs, which may include:
Appraisal fees
Title and settlement charges
Lender fees
➕ Up to 4% in Seller Concessions
In addition to closing costs, VA loans allow sellers to pay up to 4% of the purchase price toward certain expenses, such as:
Prepaid property taxes
Prepaid homeowners insurance
Escrow items
Debt payoff needed for loan approval
Temporary or permanent rate buydowns
This structure creates one of the lowest cash-to-close pathways of any mortgage program available today.
Closing Costs vs. Seller Concessions (VA Rules)
Closing Costs
Examples: appraisal, title fees, lender fees
VA Limit: Seller can pay 100%
Seller Concessions
Examples: prepaid taxes, prepaid insurance, debt payoff, rate buydowns
VA Limit: Capped at 4% of the purchase price
When these are combined properly, many veterans are able to preserve their savings while still securing competitive home financing.
