How much does my job factor into the type of home loan i get?

I work for a non profit agency the runs homeless shelters around southern california and my specific job is covered by a grant from the VA. I've been with the agency for 4 years and have no intention on leaving.

Will the bank look at me as a risk because of this?

After 4 years, maybe not. Lenders are looking for stability. VA isn't going out of business, however, your specific job responsibility may be what limits you. Are you minimum wage or a manager or major decisionmaker?

VA home loans are a unique way of extending support to the US war veterans, who committed their lives in safeguarding the interests of the country. Therefore, understanding these loans is beneficial. VA housing loan program provides financial assistance to veterans so that they can purchase home at a favorable rate of interest and convenient loan terms. Loans provided by the VA are fixedproperty in a safe locality. Next, the veteran has to go to a lender and apply for a home loan. VA guaranteed loans are provided by private lenders that include banks, mortgage companies and savings and loan associations. No prepayment penalties and long amortization terms are another advantage of these loans.
