The loan must be for an eligible purpose
The veteran must be a satisfactory credit risk
The veteran must occupy or intend to occupy the property as a home within a reasonable period of time after closing the loan
The income of the veteran and spouse, if any, must be shown to be stable and sufficient to meet the mortgage payments, cover the costs of owning a home, take care of other obligations and expenses, and have enough left over for family support
