Policy Pursuant to 38 U.S.C. § 3703(d)(3)(A), a VA-guaranteed loan must be secured by a first lien on the realty.

Eligibility A loan to purchase property subject to unpaid delinquent taxes, special assessments, prior mortgage indebtedness, or other obligations secured by effective liens that the Veteran agrees to pay or which constitute encumbrances on the property is not eligible for guaranty, if the loan amount, plus these unpaid obligations, exceeds VA’s reasonable value of the property.
