# Ask us about FHA loans to Remodel for Veterans

Counter card from the Federal Housing Administration inviting veterans to ask about home-remodelling loans, with star borders and an eagle badge. It states terms (up to $5000, low cost, long term, pay out of income) and uses patriotic framing for a loan offer; the technique is faint here, mainly the flag-and-eagle styling.
