The va home loan program unused by millions—who is quietly benefiting from this oversight? As veterans struggle with housing costs, nearly 90% of eligible borrowers have not used their benefit, with a disproportionate impact on minority and low-income service members. While the Department of Veterans Affairs touts the program’s low interest rates and zero down payment requirement, data reveals that aggressive lender fees, confusing eligibility rules, and a preference for conventional loans are funneling billions in profits to big banks and mortgage giants. Critics argue that these barriers are not accidental but designed to exclude the very people the program was intended to help, leaving a critical safety net untouched while lenders rake in record profits.
