  • America's #1 Female VA Lender Analyzes Dave Ramsey's position on VA loans.
    Dave Ramsey is not known to be the biggest advocate for VA loans. He and his team shake their heads and often look flabbergasted when a Veteran says they are doing a VA loan with zero down. What is this all about? In this video I cover each of Dave Ramsey's points about VA and examine if they make sense.

    Thanks for the video. I listen to the Ramsey show and agree sometimes, but disagree other times. Just have to use what works for you. Ramsey is very one-size-fits-all approach when in reality that’s not the case. And since he’s made sooo much money, why would he change what he says? “Follow the money!”

    • @JenniferBeeston
      @JenniferBeeston  Před 8 měsíci +1

      Yeah, if he actually gave advice that was relevant to today, he would make less money because it would be similar to what everyone else is saying. His stringent approach and my way or the highway rationale is what’s made him a multi multi multimillionaire so my guess is, that is why he sticks with it. Agree with you 100%

    Great Video, but I have question to ask. As a Veteran using my first VA loan and assuming a 20% down payment, will my funding fee be reduced by less than the 2.5 % ??

    • @JenniferBeeston
      @JenniferBeeston  Před 8 měsíci +1

      If you are doing VA and putting down 20% and do not receive VA disability the funding fee is 1.25% . If you get VA disability the funding fee is waived. You want to make sure the lender is showing you rate and fees on both conventional and VA and discussing the refinance options down the road. Always happy to show both sides 707-478-0637 Also here is the link to the VA funding fee chart www.va.gov/housing-assistance/home-loans/funding-fee-and-closing-costs/

    Great Video! Your right on all the points you made about VA, I do disagree to the whole message about Ramsey not being nuanced & allow a 0% down payment. We’re missing the point, no one should choose a lender that offers 0% you’re not ready to buy a home if you can’t put at least %3 You will struggle.
    Example ( 400k home 3% Down = $12,000 ) There’s 7 baby steps for a reason

    I have $100k to throw at it that I’ve been growing in a brokerage account.
    My coworkers say put 0 down, and I intend to keep this house as getting restationed in Texas is very likely as USCG

    • @JenniferBeeston
      @JenniferBeeston  Před 4 dny

      I think it really depends on what the potential rental amount is long-term. If you’re likely going to be moved… can the house with a renter cover the mortgage payment? If it can do so with zero down, I would keep the money in your bank. Ultimately though you have to do what you’re comfortable with. It is very rare that conventional makes more sense than VA but if for instance, you’re thinking you may end up in California and need your full and entitlement that would be a different story. Overall, it’s a a conversation, feel free to reach out. we’re happy to get you on the path home 707-478-0637

    Ramsey is a fraud. He makes millions telling people to stop spending and pay their bills and then calls his self a financial guru. Ramsey is being sued for millions because he pushed garbage products on his clients and the few times I have heard him speak, made me cringe and shake my head. He thinks everyone should follow his advice when almost all of it is either common sense, or nonsense.

  • @StapletonUSMC
    @StapletonUSMC Před 8 měsíci

    What you are missing is that when you have to sell for an extenuating circumstance during market downturn, be ready to bring large amount of cash to closing or you are trapped. Essentially you are insuring that during a market downturn you are not trapped. I’m with Ramsey, and a USMC Veteran. Don’t get trapped.

      @StapletonUSMC Před 8 měsíci

      Extenuating circumstances are the name of the game while your in. If you served you would know. After leaving I prefer to keep my money instead of paying tons in interest. Conventional loan with 20% down, 15 year fixed then close the loan. Even better, A FEW DAYS after closing add 10% additional cash to principal and then make the payment as scheduled. If it is your primary home it is the safest way to do it. I wish the VA home loan was better but honestly it is not. Some exceptions exist but it’s the best way to not pay 150% interest over the course of the loan. Save that money and invest.

    I use to love Dave’s content until this past year or two. They’ve loaded their roster with squishy weak personalities who appear to be divorced from reality. They just blow off how bad inflation has been for those who do not have much assets. Home affordability is at all time lows but believes anyone can do a 15 year fixed payment less than 25% of their take home pay with a 20% down payment. Less than 10% of the population can do that on an AVERAGE home.
