His mission? Turning renters into proud homeowners with a simplified, affordable process that meets the needs of today’s buyers.
Here are some key takeaways from this insightful episode:
From the Marine Corps to Real Estate
Geromy’s journey is nothing short of inspiring. After serving as a scout sniper in the Marine Corps, he transitioned into banking before finding his true calling in real estate. Today, he uses his experience to guide veterans and first-time buyers toward homeownership, making the dream of owning a home accessible for those who may have thought it was out of reach.
Breaking Down Barriers for First-Time Homebuyers
At LGI Homes, the focus is on making the home-buying process easier and more affordable. Geromy explains how the company simplifies the experience for first-time buyers, offering move-in-ready homes without the need for costly upgrades. With everything included—from stainless steel appliances to ceiling fans—homebuyers know exactly what they’re getting, and they can move in within 30 days. This no-surprises approach is a game-changer for those looking to make the leap from renting to owning.
Veteran Support and the VA Loan Advantage
Geromy is passionate about helping veterans navigate the complexities of the VA loan process, ensuring they receive the benefits they deserve. With LGI Homes, veterans can avoid the common pitfalls of the VA loan system—like sellers refusing offers due to appraisal concerns—and secure their future in a home built for them.
A Realtor-Friendly Approach
Realtors play a crucial role in the home-buying process, and Geromy makes sure they are supported every step of the way. Unlike many builders, LGI Homes protects realtors’ commissions, even if the client walks in without them. This realtor-friendly model makes working with LGI a win-win for both agents and buyers.
Spec Homes and 30-Day Closes: The LGI Difference
One of the biggest challenges in real estate is the long wait time for new construction. LGI Homes solves this problem by building homes first, allowing buyers to move in within 30 days of falling in love with a property. Geromy explains how this “spec home” approach offers peace of mind and quick closings, making it easier for families and veterans to settle into their new homes without the long delays typical of custom builds.
Affordable Housing Solutions
In today’s challenging housing market, affordability is key. Geromy discusses LGI’s commitment to keeping homes affordable, from lowering interest rates to covering the majority of closing costs. For first-time buyers and veterans alike, these programs open the door to homeownership, often at a lower cost than renting.
Veterans, VA Loans, and Affordable Solutions
Geromy’s focus on veterans doesn’t stop at the front door. With LGI Homes offering interest rate reductions and affordability programs, veterans have a clear path to homeownership. Geromy shares how his experience as a veteran and former mortgage expert allows him to guide his clients through the process with ease, ensuring they get the best possible deal.
