Colorado Springs Realtor BJ Burns Helping Veterans Qualify for VA Financing
Colorado Springs, CO (PRWEB) May 01, 2017 -- Real estate professional BJ Burns, of The Platinum Group, Realtors, recently launched the Burns-Edling Family Foundation, located in Monument, CO. It is a 501© (3) organization dedicated to raising funds for local military families so they can repair their homes.
“It is our organization’s goal to purchase a home in the next 12 months for a veteran and their family. Once the home is purchased we will use gift cards to fix it up and have volunteers do the work,” said Burns, a Certified Military Relocation Specialist. “Once the repairs are done to the standard for VA loans the veteran will be able to purchase the home at a reduced cost. The Burns-Edling Family Foundation is eager to launch its project so we can improve the community and help a military veteran and their family.”
In the Colorado Springs area, there are three large military bases and a sizable population of military veterans and their families. With the influx of more active military coming to the Colorado Springs community, high rent rates and low volume of VA-qualified homes on the market, there is a substantial need to assist military families in finding homes.
“Homes are difficult to pass qualifications to receive a VA loan,” concluded Burns. “It is crucial that we support our veterans and help them on their journey to finding safe and affordable housing.”
