No,you are not required to pay the buyers closing costs by the VA or any bank loan.It is a sales tactic.They are already getting a no money down loan from the VA and now want you to pay the rest of it for them to make it a home run of a deal for them.Simply counter to them by stating you will pay none of the closing costs.They are gambling that the house doesn't have any other offers and won't anytime soon and are trying to force you into making less money.Everything is negotiable.Offer 1/2 the costs if you want.Also remember that the VA is notoriously slow to fund the deals and escrow can take up to 60 long days to finish with no guarantee they will be approved until the end.
