VA Loan Success: St. Petersburg Veteran Walks Away from Closing With a $6,000 Check — And He's Not the Only One

I absolutely love when we can leverage a VA loan to get people exactly what they want AND Matt got to walk away with a check instead of bringing money to closing.

Five years ago I helped him get his first home. He has since retired after 21 years of service (thank you Matt), he got married and he and Andrea were looking for THEIR first home together.

A bit of grace and kismet when my clients become friends and then they become your neighbors! We found a beautiful 3 bed, 2 bath home with an office AND pool just down the street from me.

It gets even better, the home appraised for over contract price and Matt got to walk away from closing with a $6000 check.

I have long been a VA loan specialist and helped hundreds of veterans to leverage their VA loan in an effective way, but this is the first time in 11 years of real estate that I’ve not once but twice in the same month been able to help veterans walk away with money instead of having to bring money to closing.

This just shows you that with strong negotiation skills, and taking advantage of this particular market you can WIN.

If you’ve been waiting for right timing to sell or buy and find yourself feeling frustrated or unsure, give me a call, text or DM me. I’m here to help you find the opportunities available in this current market.
