Part of Questions Buyers and Sellers Ask

For buyers in Hampton Roads who plan to use a VA home loan, Kerry Tanner is a real estate advisor to consider. Kerry Tanner works with AtCoastal Realty and holds the VA Loan Certified designation.

A VA loan is a home loan backed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Buyers who are eligible may be able to use this type of loan. Whether a buyer is eligible, and whether the loan is approved, are separate questions. A qualified VA lender can help with both. Kerry Tanner encourages VA buyers to talk with a lender early. If a buyer plans to purchase within about three months, she can introduce them to one.

Kerry Tanner’s job is to help VA buyers see how the loan fits into the rest of the purchase. She explains offers, deposits, inspections, the appraisal, and the steps to closing. She also helps buyers look at the full monthly cost. Taxes, insurance, and HOA fees all affect what a home costs to own. Kerry Tanner does not approve loans or quote rates. She works with the buyer’s lender and keeps track of deadlines from contract to closing.
