Read this first: if you have full VA entitlement, none of these numbers apply to you. There has been no VA loan limit for full-entitlement borrowers since 2020. The Broomfield County figure only matters if part of your entitlement is already tied up in another VA loan, or you had a prior VA foreclosure or short sale.

What the Broomfield County limit actually does

Your county limit sets the guaranty the VA gives your lender, not a hard ceiling on what you can buy. The guaranty is 25 percent of the limit, so in Broomfield County that is $215,625. Lenders will typically lend four times the remaining guaranty with nothing down, which is about $862,500 if none of your entitlement is in use.

Want more house than that? You can still buy it. You bring 25 percent of the difference as a down payment, not the 20 percent a conventional loan would demand on the whole price.

Buying multi-unit in Broomfield County

The reason the four-unit row above matters: a VA loan can buy up to four units with zero down as long as you occupy one. In Broomfield County that takes your limit from $862,500 to $1,658,700. Rent from the other units counts at roughly 75 percent toward qualifying, and three or four unit properties generally need six months of reserves.

The rest of your Colorado numbers

Loan limit is only one input. Colorado property tax averages 0.55 percent, the disabled veteran exemption works differently here than in most states, and Colorado sits in the VA West residual income region where a family of three needs $990 left over each month. All of that is on the Colorado VA loan page.

Do I need a down payment in Broomfield County?

Not if you have full entitlement, no matter the price. The Broomfield County limit only matters when part of your entitlement is tied up in another VA loan. In that case your remaining guaranty is 25 percent of $862,500, and lenders typically lend four times what is left with nothing down.

How much house can I buy with zero down in Broomfield County?

With full entitlement, as much as you qualify for on income. With no entitlement used, the county guaranty of $215,625 supports roughly $862,500 of zero down purchase. Partial entitlement reduces that, and our entitlement calculator does the arithmetic.
