Aligning with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) recently announced expansion of eligibility, [Plaza Home Mortgage](http://www.plazahomemortgage.com/?utm_campaign=Wholesale%20News%20%2B%20Updates&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-8vF8rO9jMxBsrgtrtcnS_LcYOVvVzPeN7mgHuwxOC-OlmC4VIpQoJJJAIqGPLdk5kerOn8)® is now able to extend VA home loans to certain members of the Army National or Air National Guard. Eligible National Guard members must have performed at least 90 cumulative days of full-time National Guard duty, of which, at least 30 of those days must have been consecutive. This change applies to current and former National Guard members, regardless of service dates. Plaza’s VA guidelines have been adjusted to reflect the change.
