New American Funding, an Orange County Home Loan Lender has launched their VA Home Loan Center, a microsite dedicated to the Veterans, active duty personnel, selected Reservists, and National Guard members of our Armed Forces.

After Obama announced that all U.S. troops would be coming home from Iraq and Afghanistan at the end of October last year, waves of soldiers have been arriving home, and according a New York times article, 22,000 troops are expected to return home from Afghanistan by the fall 2012.

In response, the Orange County mortgage banker felt it would be helpful and patriotic to provide these returning soldiers a site where they could learn more about their VA Home Loan benefits. Current New American Funding Loan Officer, and former National Guard member, Kerrick Patterson, explains that “there’s so much that Vets don’t realize they’re entitled to, and in the case of those on active duty, they can take advantage of their Basic Allowance for Housing to help pay their monthly mortgage.

The site features an inspiring story from Gregory Thomas, an Army Veteran that received a home loan from New American Funding for his first home purchase.

Also on the site is information regarding VA home loan eligibility requirements, the Basic Allowance for Housing, and the VA Home Loan process. New American Funding offers VA Home Loans for many states across the nation including Maryland, Colorado, and Texas, to name a few.
