I'm currenlty working on several loans for Veterans (VA & CalVET) and each will be completed in its own time frame. If you are in or are planning to get into a 45 day escrow, please give me a call tomorrow morning after 9:30am (916/985-3403) and we'll let you know what to expect. Thanks Bill B The Mortgage Mentors (c) Great Advice. Great Alternatives.

They closed in thirty days no problem. I felt they were protecting the vet .

That equals almost 60 calendar days. I have yet to see one close within that time frame.Sat, 02 Aug 2008 23:01:17 -0700
