Can You Really Buy a Home with $0 Down Using a VA Loan in Brevard County?

If you’re stationed at Patrick Space Force Base, recently retired from the military, or relocating to Florida’s Space Coast — the VA loan is one of your strongest homebuying advantages.

The most well-known feature?
$0 down payment required
No monthly mortgage insurance
Flexible credit guidelines

That means many veterans in Melbourne, Viera, Palm Bay, Cocoa, and Titusville can become homeowners sooner — without waiting years to save a large down payment.


Why $0 Down is a Game-Changer in Brevard County

Home prices in Brevard County have continued to rise as the Space Coast grows.
More local demand = higher local rents.

With a VA loan, instead of spending years paying rent in:

  • Melbourne

  • West Melbourne

  • Viera

  • Rockledge

  • Satellite Beach

  • Cocoa Beach

…you can build your own equity right here in the Space Coast community.

Even if home prices increase — you benefit, instead of paying a landlord more every year.


Do VA Loans Still Have Closing Costs?

Yes — every home purchase includes closing costs, such as:

  • Appraisal

  • Florida title fees

  • Homeowners insurance

  • Property taxes

But with VA loans, you can reduce upfront expenses using:

Seller-paid closing costs
Lender credits
Negotiated concessions
Builder incentives — especially with new construction in Viera & Palm Bay

We help structure VA offers that sellers in Brevard say YES to.

Some of our Space Coast veterans close with very little — or even $0 — due at closing.


Who in Brevard County Qualifies for $0 Down?

Most veterans and active-duty service members stationed locally qualify, including those who:

  • Served at least the minimum active-duty requirement

  • Served in the National Guard or Reserves

  • Are PCS’ing to Patrick SFB

  • Are eligible surviving spouses

Even if you’ve already used a VA loan before, you may still qualify again here in Florida.

We’ll help you get your Certificate of Eligibility (COE) quickly — no paperwork stress.


Why Use Your VA Benefit on the Space Coast?

Brevard County offers:

🏡 Affordable Florida homeownership opportunities
🚀 Strong job growth from aerospace & tech
🎯 BAH (Basic Allowance for Housing) that stretches further here
🌴 A coastal lifestyle with investment upside

This region is growing — and your benefit helps you grow with it.
