Oregon Veteran programs information has been added to this site.

I have posted several veteran programs links to this site, including both home loan programs from the national Veterans Administration and the Oregon VA.  I recently took advantage of the IRRRL program, shaving one percent off our own mortgage with no closing costs thanks to the help of Kelly Parkman at the Northwest Mortgage Group.  There are also links for veterans from the department of Housing Urban Development, US Department of Agriculture, and the Small Business Administration.  Counseling information for veterans possibly facing foreclosure has also been listed.  Finally, there is information for veterans and their spouses to determine their eligibility to use a VA home loan or to determine if their home purchases, renovations, or improvements are eligible under the VA home loan program.

If you have any questions or need assistance in utilizing these programs, please contact me at:

The Realtors & Industry Networking Group of the Portland, OR area

This week, I attended my first large networking opportunity with TRING, The Realtors & Industry Networking Group.  The Summa Real Estate Group hosted the event as a grand opening to their new office in Beaverton, OR.  Besides having the opportunity to meet with other real estate agents from other brokerages, I was also introduced with title and escrow agents, mortgage bankers, and other professionals in the real estate field.  The first-time home buyer’s credit, mortgage refinancing, and of course the current market were popular topics.
