Brent:
I want to personally
thank you for the tremendous service you provided to us in the purchase and
financing of our new home in Georgia.
This was my first
venture into VA financing. As a retired senior naval officer, I should
have been a bit more prepared for the various minefields and obstacles
associated with a VA loan. There were moments when I came on pretty
strong, and vented my frustrations over the seemingly endless and short fused
requirements. You took the flack, weathered the storm and kept the ship
on course. I'm not sure if 1st Mariner pays it's front line combat troops
"hostile fire pay", but they should, because you earned it.
Your professional
knowledge of the market and the funding landscape is unquestionable. You
have the ability to see the storms brewing before they happen, and thus provide
the client a "heads up". That is invaluable.
Having purchased and
sold several homes (all conventional funding), my take away from all this is:
It takes a dedicated funding professional to handle the emotional surges
involved in a major purchase. It takes a sensitive, yet unbiased
professional to stand alongside the client during a highly challenging
situation. It takes a seasoned professional to deal with the myriad of
time sensitive details involved in a VA deal. It takes a confident and
competent professional to advise a client to "stand down" and dial
the emotions back.
You excel in every
category.
I will gladly refer your
services to my network, and to referrals that may need to hear it from one who
has just weathered the storm.
Additionally, I want to
thank you for your service to my fellow veterans in obtaining loans and funding
options. Sadly, there are those in the market who turn away from VA
loans. You stood tall for both my navy veteran daughter in law, and for
me. You and Piper Harris are now considered "shipmates", a
unique navy honor, which you have both earned through trust and loyalty to us.
Best personal wishes,
and continued success in the future.
