Working with Veterans is great.  With the Kirtland AFB here we work with many.  They come and purchase then in a few years we list and they move on.

Same as other borrowers.  Some have been great, others not so much.  I would say they tend to be more punctual than average, but I've worked with Vets who were dream clients, and the client I had to get out of jail for settlement was also a Vet.....so I'd say they're just like other people....lots of them are tremendous, others are not so tremendous.
