What it does

The House Our Heroes Act would authorize the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to offer educational courses to veterans with delinquent or foreclosed VA-guaranteed home loans, covering topics such as credit improvement, financial management, and loss mitigation options. It would also allow the Secretary to make partial claims and consent to loan modifications for certain VA-guaranteed loans in default due to missed payments between May 1, 2025, and November 28, 2026, bypassing the usual procedural sequence. The bill applies specifically to veterans with VA-guaranteed housing loans under chapter 38 of title 38, United States Code, that are delinquent or in foreclosure. It aims to provide targeted assistance to help veterans avoid losing their homes through education and flexible loan workout options.
