VA loans are home loans for the purchase of a primary residence available to Veterans who have served or are presently serving in the U.S. military. While the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) does not lend money for VA loans, it backs loans made by private lenders to Veterans who qualify.
This is a standard Conventional Mortgage that allows for less out-of-pocket cash. Great for FIRST TIME HOME BUYERS with stronger credit and can avoid the mortgage insurance premiums that are common with FHA loans.
Through the Home in Five Advantage program, individuals or families who qualify are able to obtain a 30-year fixed rate loan with a non-repayable 5% down payment/closing cost assistance grant. Financing is available on new or existing homes in Maricopa County on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Please take a few minutes to fill out our simple prequalification form. Once we have received your application, we will review and contact you as soon as possible.

Kari has impressed me and my husband infinitely. She worked wonderfully with my realtor and kept all of us in the loop for the whole process. She was the only lender that was actually willing to put in the work with my husband’s limited credit with manual underwriting. She was the only one who didn’t just look at his credit and take the easy way out to turn us down. She has gone above and beyond five star service and I would be more than happy to be a reference for her services. Kari made even the boring, yucky paperwork exciting with her outgoing and positive attitude. My husband and I are now first-time home owners thanks to her. You can’t go wrong with Kari Zurn. Keep up the good work!
Kari went above and beyond for my wife Diana and I. I could not be more grateful for her hard work, friendship, and honesty! I appreciate everyone from Academy mortgage for making this happen!
From the minute my husband and I called Kari for guidance with refinancing our home, she took us from point A to Z in record breaking time! We were so pleased with how she held our hand along the way and gave her personal attention to each detail! She not only saved us money but she gave us her undivided attention and support through the process. Kari is extremely professional and her passion for what she does makes getting a loan from “The Loan Gal” a fabulous experience.
I have had the opportunity to observe Ms. Zurn as she presents to moderate scale audiences (100-200 people), and she truly commands a comfortable presence on the stage as she professionally articulates content in a concise, efficient manner. In addition to her proficiency in attending to details, Kari Zurn has a knack for integrating the information she has learned and is able to utilize this knowledge effectively in various networking environments.
Kari Zurn, Matt Remus of the Red Stone Mortgage team were AMAZING through the whole process. They went above and beyond all my expectations. They completely walked us through the process and kept us up to date. I would recommend them to anyone looking to buy a home. I would and or will do business with them again.
Kari and Robert were very easy to work with and made the process so easy and simple
Kari Zurn was amazing!
I loved how nice everyone was during the entire process. Kari was extremely fast at answering questions and was in constant contact with me.
The whole team was very good at communicating what was needed from us in a way that we would understand it.
They took care of me every inch of the way they made me fill like i was their only customer and my loan was the only one they were working on Kari and Alex was totally team Williams
