What it does
The bill limits the VA to buying 250 home loans per year. The VA Secretary must write a plan within 180 days. The plan must show how to sell those loans to private companies. The bill aims to protect the VA Home Loan Program. It does this by reducing how many loans the government holds.
Who it affects
Veterans keep their VA home loan guarantee. The VA can buy fewer loans when they fail. The VA must sell loans to private companies instead of keeping them.
One thing to notice
The bill does not say what price the VA must accept. It does not say what kinds of companies can buy loans. A 250-loan limit may not help all veterans during a housing crisis.
