My Customers Have Spoken:

Tai is what made it great. Her knowledge, care and compassion helped to make this traumatizing home buying experience smooth as could be. She held our hands every step of the way and broke down the entire process to us, several times. Every time something was changed or updated she let us know. She responsed so quickly to any questions, concerns or requests we had. Tai made us feel like her top priority even though I know she has other clients.

Tai is the 3rd lender that my family and I have worked with in the past 8 years while searching for a home of our own. The previous lenders that I had been connected with never made me feel at peace with the process. A year ago a mortgage lender friend of mine introduced me to Tai, whom was her mentor. From the start I was able to relate to Tai on so many levels and her expertise in the industry helped to ease my nerves thru the process. Every step of the way Tai was there to explain things to me no matter how many times I asked. The numbers in our purchase agreement changed so many times, and Tai would just roll with the punches. Everytime something changed, Tai would breakdown the new numbers and how they would affect us. This purchase was mentally and emotionally draining as we were purchasing my grandmothers house and it was an extremely toxic environment. I believe Tai went above and beyond during this process to make sure everything went as smooth as possible for us. Taking time out of her busy day to calm my nerves and make me feel secure that everything that was needed on our end was taken cared of. I would 100% recommend Tai to anyone who is in the housing market. Not only will she get the job done, but she will take care you you 100%.

Jennifer was very knowledgable and friendly to work with. She communicated expectations and the process clearly and helped us close on an amazing home we never thought we'd ever have. Estimated cash-to-close was nearly dead on, and she helped us close early. Thank you Jennifer!

We are so very fortunate to have worked with Jennifer Gustafson, our VA lender. Her knowledgeable service was far beyond what we had expected for our Ohana getting approved for the mortgage loan. She was always able to answer any questions we had and effectively executed every task in a timely manner. We would highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking to purchase a home in the future. Mahalo for your service.

From start to finish. Everything was explained, convenience of electronic signatures, secure site to transfer documents, appraisal/termite appointments were easily made and convenient location for final signing/notarization. I was impressed by the service. Thank you for your awesome service!

Jennifer Gustafson assisted with several of my transactions to successful closings, including a challenging one just recently when no other lender could do it, I am happy to tell you that together we closed the FIRST STATED INCOME TRANSACTION since the bad mortgage era back in 2000-2007. I am thrilled that VA HomeLoans now partners with a new investor for the self employed buyers. I highly recommend VA HomeLoans! Thank you again dear Jennifer Gustafson for your continued efforts to assist the Home 🏡 Buyers! I wish you success, ALWAYS! We’ll do it again! With Aloha & Gratitude! Susana Poulin
