by Marie Mccarty, Googlet Review

Thank you Robert for all your Amazing help with our loan! Robert walked us thru each step, and explained the different types of loans, answered all our many questions and always took time with us to figure out the best loan for us! I recommend him highly! Very professional and knowledgeable! Thank you very much!

Highly recommended!

by Sean Moore from Encinitas, CA, Zillow Review

I recently refinanced my mortgage with Robert and he was extremely knowledgeable and always took the time to answer my questions. This was the second time I’ve worked with Robert and will definitely do so again in the future!

Professional Reliable Knowledgeable

by basehittr6 from Lakewood, CA, Zillow Review

Robert was recommended to me to secure a reverse mortgage. I read everything I could online about the process which was somewhat complicated. Once Robert got the paperwork started he walked me through the tedious procedure. I had refinanced before but this was more difficult. Any time I called or texted or emailed him he responded quickly and courteously. He is truly a professional and I recommend him highly if you need a mortgage broker.

What you need to know

Frequently VA Loan asked questions


Get Started

Hey fellow vets, let’s talk about getting your VA loan Certificate of Eligibility (COE), the key to unlocking those VA loan perks. Here’s the lowdown on what you need for eligibility based on your service:

  • Wartime? You’ll need at least 90 straight days of active duty.
  • Peacetime duty calls for a bit more, with a requirement of 181 days.
  • Reservists and National Guard? Six years of service gets you in the door, but if you were called up during wartime, it’s back to the 90-day rule.
  • Lost a spouse in the line or due to service injuries? You might qualify, too.

Getting Your Hands on a COE

  • The quick way: Jump on the eBenefits portal. It’s speedy and gets the job done.
  • Through your lender: A lot of us can pull your COE fast through the VA’s system.
  • Old-school mail: Still an option with VA Form 26-1880, but it’s gonna take a bit.

What’s the COE Do For You?

It’s your ticket to the VA loan show but doesn’t automatically mean you’ll get the loan. It’s about proving you’re in the club. The real magic is in the VA loan benefits like zero down and skipping the PMI.

Why Bother?

Knowing the ins and outs is key, especially in places like San Diego where the housing game is tough. It’s about getting you prepped and ready to make your move.

I’m here to walk you through it, cut through the jargon, and get you on the path to owning a home in San Diego. Let’s make it happen.

In San Diego, thanks to the Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act of 2019, most veterans with full VA loan entitlement won’t face borrowing limits, allowing for greater flexibility in this high-cost market. However, exceptions exist for those carrying multiple VA loans or with a history of default, where certain limits still apply. Essentially, while the act broadens borrowing potential, especially in pricier areas, lenders will still scrutinize financial health, ensuring loans match what veterans can afford. So, whether you’re aiming for a beachfront property or a suburban home, the path to owning in San Diego just got a bit smoother, provided you navigate the financial checks wisely.

  • Zero Down Payment: Forget scraping together a down payment; VA loans got you covered.
  • No PMI: PMI? Never heard of her. Save that cash for something else.
  • Better Interest Rates: Lenders often give us vets a break on rates, making that monthly bill a bit easier to swallow.
  • Easier Credit Rules: A few credit hiccups won’t necessarily boot you out of the running. VA loans are all about giving vets a fair shot.
  • (POS) Point of Sale option
  • Contact info: Name, Address, Phone, Email, Hours
  • Menu with online ordering & reservations optimized
  • Great images of your food, restaurant interor & exterior
