What are the guidelines on gift of equity on VA LOANS. What are the VA GUIDELINES on purchasing a home from a family member under market value.

Trying to see if buyer that has been renting home for 14 years , with option to purchase. How can he get in home with no down payment. Home is worth 245,000 selling 180,000 seller paying closing cost and prepaids . They are not related but have been good friends like his grandfather prior to renting.
