Wow! It seems as though summer quickly passed us by and we are straight into fall. The session of MAW was powerful!! In August we hosted a great webinar entitled, “Veteran’ s Home Loan Benefits,” with guest presenter Mike Alberico of AMG, Alberico Mortgage Group powered by UMortgage. Mike lives in Raleigh, NC and provides mortgage products for both North Carolina and South Carolina. He has been working in the mortgage industry for many years, so he brings a great wealth of knowledge and information to purchasing property. One of Mike’s specialties is the VA Home Loan product, where he does a great job of educating borrowers and agents on the best way to maximize your benefits. This power packed webinar provided great information to Veterans and their family members. If you missed this webinar. I’ll be glad to send you a replay video, just send me an email to: militarywomen@nfbpwc.org and request the replay and I will be glad to forward the credentials to you.
