Many Veterans when searching for an Arizona VA Home Loan rarely stop and ask if the company in which they are seeking financing specializes in Arizona VA Home Loans.
This is not a question that typically comes to mind when applying for a loan, however I can assure you it’s one that it should.
The reality is that there are a lot of lending institutions that may be able to originate a VA Home Loan, but it does not automatically mean that they know exactly what they are doing.
I see this time and time again when Veterans come to me frustrated, and feeling defeated because the lender in which they started with seems rather lost and unfamiliar with the process creating feelings of uneasiness and anxiety.
When explaining why Veterans should use a Mortgage Banker that specializes in Arizona VA Home Loans, I often times use this analogy:
The United States Marine Corps is famous for every Marine being a basic rifleman. However, within the Marine Corps there are certain specialities that exist.
For example you have Infantry Rifleman who trains daily for the front lines of combat, and on the other hand, you may have a Marine who’s job is to work on the electronics of an aircraft.
I think it’s safe to say that you would not want the Infantry Marine working on the aircraft, and the Aircraft Marine shooting highly technical weaponry.
Why is this? Each Marine has been trained in their own area of expertise and may not be 100% familiar with how each others job works.
Keep in mind they are both Marines yet have 2 totally different jobs.
That’s kind of like how the Mortgage industry is. Just because somebody is a Mortgage Banker or Broker does not automatically make that person qualified to originate your VA Home Loan.
