Veterans Lending Group- Lakewood Bridgeport Way, Lakewood

Mark and the folks over at Veterans Lending Group are true professionals that make the home buying experience a pleasant one! Ryan was my lending agent and walked me through every step of the way. Since it was my fist time purchasing a home, I felt like I was always asking questions. Ryan was awesome about answering all questions and making sure I wasn’t going in blind or uncertain. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking to buy a home to go through them!

We approached VLG through a mutual acquaintance, our realtor. She had provided her personal recommendation. The good: we eventually succeeded, VLG got us through and we bought a house. The bad: Through much of the homebuying process from August to September, I was left out of the loop on important & time sensitive correspondence from Veterans Lending Group with every person we dealt with there. I was annoyed, and my spouse was offended and equally annoyed, so we both sent the team emails requesting that they please include me on future correspondence. They very generously cc'd me on most of the emails after that. Needless to say on the many pieces of paperwork that the buying and lending process necessitates, we were denoted as a married couple (however neither of us wished to legally change our names; apparently this was incomprehensible). We closed at the end of September, and every single dollar of our transaction throughout the process came directly out of *my* savings account (WA is a communal property state, so it is both of our money, but all of the $$$$ the agency, seller, etc received from us came from an account with only my name on it). Yet today I get home to see they sent a congratulatory gift with *only* my spouse's name on both the note and the gifts. We recognize it was intended to be a nice gesture and we did not expect a gift at all (successfully navigating the home buying process was plenty), but this feels like one final slap in the face. And hey, they sent two items, couldn't just one have had my last name??? 😂

Mark & his team are AMAZING! Mark is a shark when it comes to VA loans (in the best way!) Mark and his team were always available to answer any and all questions. They ALWAYS respond quickly and make the process less stressful. They always keep you informed every step of the way and they always have your best interest in mind and make sure EVERY little detail is taken care of. Will ALWAYS recommend them! Mark, Joshua & the rest of the team are great, honest, reliable, knowledgeable and polite!

My husband and I worked with Mark Villano to be able to close on our house earlier this year! He took over from a different mortgage company that wasn’t valuing our business . He and his team took the time to really understand what our needs were and they were able to exceed our expectations. I would recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a home.

Mark and Team truly professional! They take the time to ensure you understand everything and have excellent response time. There’s not a lender I’d deal with Nationwide..

If is not for mark and he's team me and my wife might not get to buy my first house they was comunicating with me along the all the process of buying very Profesional team

My wife and I worked with Mark Villano and his team. They were the best to work with. They contacted me within an hour of getting my info. They also had us pre approved within 24 hours! Another lender didn't even contact me for 3 days!!!. The entire team was so helpful, polite, and knowledgeable. I wouldn't recommend any other team in the area!

Everyone, if you are reading this. Don't go anywhere else. Mark and his team have not only helped me with my loan needs, several times over. I will work with no one else. Period. I will go well out of my way to work with his team. If you are looking for some assistance with a VA loan, you found your team. They have your back.

They were professional, did what needed to be done, and the entire process went smoothly. What more can you ask for?

Most relatable and trustworthy people to work with. The entire team is truly there for you!
