$50,000–$1,000,000+ for Vermont housing track
Vermont closing costs + cash-at-closing requirements (typically $13K-$30K) lock VA-loan-eligible Vermont veterans out of homeownership. $50,000 funds 4-7 Vermont-resident grants over 6-12 months. $250,000 underwrites a Vermont-specific track for one year. $1M+ funds a Vermont-pipeline scaling.
A Vermont veteran with stable income, good credit, and a VA Certificate of Eligibility can still be locked out of homeownership by a $13K-$25K cash-at-closing requirement. The VA loan covers 100% of mortgage but does not cover closing costs.
