Colorado Springs mortgage lender
Home loans for Colorado Springs and El Paso County

Colorado Springs is home to Fort Carson, Peterson and Schriever Space Force Bases and the U.S. Air Force Academy, so VA loans come up often. If you're a veteran, on active duty or relocating on orders, I can walk you through how VA financing works and whether it fits better than your other options.

The VA funding fee
Most VA borrowers pay a one-time funding fee, which can be added to the loan. Veterans who receive VA compensation for a service-connected disability are generally exempt.
Using your benefit again
If you still own a home bought with a VA loan, you may have remaining entitlement for another one. Your Certificate of Eligibility shows where you stand.
Relocating on orders
If you're moving to Fort Carson, Peterson, Schriever or the Air Force Academy, tell me your report date. Starting the pre-approval early gives you time to shop before you arrive.
