Colorado Springs Military Relocation

If you are relocating to Colorado Springs and are in the military, contact me for a free relocation package and I can assist you with finding a home that meets your needs. I have experience working with VA buyers and understand factors that impact the minimum property requirements required by VA.

Only going to live here a few years and not sure if you should buy? With so many homes to choose from around each military base, buying a home can be a great option even if you are only going to live in it for a few years.

When moving time comes around, I can assist you as your Colorado Springs Realtor in listing your home. Living in the home for a few years allows the opportunity for your home to build equity until the time comes to sell, and homeowners cannot be taxed on the sale of their home after living there for two years. If you need to move before two years due to being moved for military reasons, you can still avoid capital gains taxes on the sale of your home; contact your CPA for details.

Feel free to contact me for more information on available Colorado Springs real estate before you make the move out here. Don't forget to take a look at web resources for VA home buyers in Colorado Springs.

The VA loan limit for Colorado Springs is currently $417,000. This temporary increase is good through December 31, 2011.

VA loans have many advantages:

• No Down payment required
• Assumable mortgage with release of liability
• No monthly Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI)
• No pre-payment penalty
• Financial counseling for homeowners in distress

If you are interested in making your home Green and Energy-Efficient, VA offers Energy-Efficient Mortgages to borrowers. There are also Housing grants available to Veterans who qualify.

If you are active duty Military I would like to show my appreciation for your serving our country by offering you 10% of my commission earnings back at closing. You can use the additional monies to apply towards your closings costs. Fill out the form to pre-qualify for this offer.

Please note: I cannot give you cash back at closing as it is required to be reflected on the HUD-1 Settlement Statement at closing. Offer is contingent upon lender approval.
