Camp Lejeune VA Loans

Obviously because of the marine corps base, VA home loans are the most often used mortgages.  In addition to active service members, there are a lot of military Veterans here as well.  So area Realtors and sellers must be informed of VA loans and be accommodating to military buyers.  This includes allowance for seller paid costs and concessions, plus making sure the home is in great condition.  Camp Lejeune BAH plays a key role in qualifying for a VA loan.  Not only is the income used, but we are able to gross up this nontaxable income source.  This feature helps service members qualify better for a house payment.  So BAH and VA loans are key to the lives of a military family in the Camp Lejeune and Jacksonville market.
