You go to a commercial lender and tell them you will be doing a VA Loan. You get your eligibility letter from the eBenefits website.

VA doesn’t give you the loan. They underwrite it so you don’t have to have a down payment. Process was not any more painful than a conventional loan. Buying a house can be painful.

I bought my first home with VA in 1974. Sold it 4 years later. Bought again in 1982, Sold that one in '87. Bought again in 1991. Sold it in 2004. Bought my present house in 2016.
All VA. All easy as can be.
No money down, great interest rates. IMO, the only way to go.

My experience was good. The Realtor did most of the work. The company that serviced my loan even recommended a refinance when the interest rate dropped. Just be sure you can afford the house. Do not take a mortgage that goes over 30 years. Do not take one that has a balloon payment.
