VA loan entitlement is an amount of guarantee made by the US Department of Veteran Affairs. The standard VA Loan Entitlement is either $36,000 or 25% of the loan amount. The $36,000 home loan entitlement is based on a loan of $144,000 or less. For VA home loans above $144,000, the VA Entitlement will be increased to 25% of the loan amount. There is a restriction on the total loan amount that is set by county or municipal boundaries.
