THANK YOU VETERANS!
We thank you for serving our country, and putting your life on the line to protect us here at home. We commend your bravery and selflessness. We are proud to work with veterans, including those that work in our company. One of the great VA benefits is the VA home loan. This allows a veteran, or surviving spouse, to purchase a home with no money down, no mortgage insurance, and if disabled, no funding fee. Rates are typically better than conventional loans. Closing costs can be paid by the seller. So, you can purchase a home without putting any money...

COUNSEL MORTGAGE HAS VETERAN LOANS
We thank our veterans and proudly employ veterans at Counsel Mortgage Group. Our veteran originators specialize in VA loans and have closed many VA loans. Recently some of our clients have contacted us questioning why they’re being heavily solicited. Truth is, many lenders know the VA Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan (know in lending as IRRRL) requires minimal effort to process and close. Be careful, and make sure the refinance benefits you, the veteran, not the lender. To be eligible for the loan you must already have VA loan, are using the IRRRL to refinance the VA loan, and certify...

VA-GUARANTEED MORTGAGE SOLICITATION
Veterans get solicited with mortgage refinancing offers quite a bit. Offers known as Interest Rate Reduction Refinancing Loan (“IRRRL”). Lenders like to make these loans for various reasons, one being minimal underwriting requirements. Veterans should scrutinize these advertisements to make sure the terms offered are true. Recently The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau issued a consent order against a lender as a result of their deceptive practices.

VA INTEREST RATE REDUCTION REFINANCE LOAN
We thank our veterans for their service and we are proud to have veteran employees. Our veteran employees specialize in assisting fellow service men and women, and we have closed many VA loans. Unfortunately, once a VA loan closes, veterans are deluged with solicitations from many lenders to refinance. Some of our clients have called and questioned why they are being solicited so heavily. It is because many lenders know the VA Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan (known in the lending world as the IRRRL) requires little effort for them to process and close. Be careful and make sure the...

WE HAVE CLOSED MANY VA LOANS
One of the best mortgage loans is the VA loan; if you are a veteran, you should consider this loan. For conforming loans, the VA loan allows 100% financing and does not have mortgage insurance. Instead, there is a one-time funding fee that can be paid at closing in cash or rolled into the loan. If you are a disabled veteran, you may be exempt from the funding fee. There is also a VA jumbo loan, which requires a down payment, but may be less than is required by conventional financing. There are certain costs that cannot be paid by...
