The VA issued 315 Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loans in Kentucky during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, according to the Veterans Affairs Home Loans Index.

The loans issued in Kentucky equaled $89.9 million.

The VA assists service members, veterans and eligible surviving spouses to achieve homeownership through loans provided by banks and mortgage companies.

A portion of the loan is guaranteed by the VA, which allows the lender to provide better rates.

Several VA housing programs can help eligible individuals buy, build, or repair their homes. These include Purchase Loans, Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loans (IRRRL), and Adapted Housing Grants, which are designed for veterans with service-connected disabilities.

The VA’s fiscal year stretches from Oct. 1 to Sept. 30.
