Average Veteran Buys Older Home in Past Year Portland - Compared to his fellow veterans who bought their homes with GI loans In 1961, the average veteran home buyer in 1962 was a little older, a bit better off financially, and more Inclined to buy an older home, accord ing to R. J. Novotny, manager of the Portland Veterans Ad ministration regional office. The percentage of veteran home buyers 30 years of age or over increased from 70 per cent in 1961 to 78 per cent in 1962, according to a sample survey of GI home loans re cently completed. by the VA. The average monthly in come (after taxes) of the vet eran home buyer in 1962 varied from $428.80 for those under 25 years of age to SSI 1.38 for those in the 40 year old and over age brack ets. The overall average for all age groups was S477.7S, up slightly from the $471.50 average in 1961, Novotny said. Purchase Oldar Home About half of the 1962 vet eran home buyers purchased older homes. In most previous years, a majority of veterans bought newly constructed houses. This shift was proba bly related in some degree to the softening of selling prices for used homes, VA officials believe. They also feel that the favorable mortgage mar ket in 1962 made it possible for more veterans to obtain GI financing on existing homes. The overall average price of homes bought with VA guaranteed loans in 1962 was $14,655. The average price for new homes was $15,595, while existing homes aver aged $13,585. Most veterans (67 per cent) bought homes in the $12,000 to $19,999 price range. About 25 per cent paid less than $12,000 for their homes and 8 per cent paid $20,000 or over, the VA re ported. Approximately 20 per cent of the veterans in the sample survey made down payments averaging about 10 per cent of the purchase price. The other 80 per cent of the vet eran borne buyers made no down payment, but paid clos ing costs when these costs were not absorbed by the sell er. The overall average down payment was slightly more then 2 per cent of the pur chase price. The monthly housing ex penses of the 1962 veteran home buyer averaged $136.30 -equivalent to slightly more than 28 per cent of his month ly income. This amount in cluded the principal and in terest payments on his loan, taxes and insurance, and esti mated fuel, utility and repair and maintenance costs.
