Thinking about buying a home using your VA loan benefits? Join us for an informative and relaxed Q&A night designed specifically for veterans and active-duty service members who want to better understand the VA home buying process and how they can put the benefit they’ve earned to good use.
This event will be co-hosted by Bryan Brown, VP of Mortgage Lending with The Bryan Brown Team at Rate, and Lauren Moore, Realtor with Century 21 Custom Home Realty. Together, they’ll answer your questions about how VA loans work, what your VA entitlement really entitles you to, what to expect when buying a home in the current market—and anything else you may be wondering about when it comes to your VA loan options!
We’re excited to host this event at The Garrison Speed Shop, a veteran-owned business. Refreshments will be provided.
🏡 What We’ll Cover:
How VA loans work and who is eligible, including income and credit requirements
Buying a home with $0 down, great rates, and no PMI
