H.R. 2791: To amend title 38, United States Code, to increase the maximum amount of housing loan guaranty entitlement available to certain veterans under the laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs.

This bill aims to modify the current regulations regarding housing loan guaranty entitlements for certain veterans under U.S. law. Specifically, it proposes an increase in the maximum amount of housing loan benefits that eligible veterans can receive.

Key Provisions of the Bill

• It amends the current law, which currently states that veterans can be guaranteed a loan amount up to 25% of the Freddie Mac conforming loan limit.
• Under the new provision, this limit would be increased to 25% of 1.5 times the Freddie Mac conforming loan limit. This means that qualifying veterans would be able to access a larger amount of financial support when securing housing loans.

Implications

The change is intended to provide better support for veterans seeking to buy homes, potentially making it easier for them to qualify for larger loans and thus purchase more expensive properties. By adjusting this limit, the bill acknowledges the rising costs of housing and aims to ensure that veterans have the necessary resources to obtain suitable housing.

Administration

The bill is part of the laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, emphasizing the government's ongoing commitment to aid veterans in housing-related matters.
