Jon Zolsky, Daytona Beach, FL ... while I am experienced in VA lending, I am not licensed in Florida ... however, I thank all those that mentioned my name to you and their consideration.

Spot Approvals have not been performed for quite a while on condos.  They are presently in the act of re-visiting that decision, but as of this date, nothing has changed regarding them.

If I can answer any questions or be of assistance, please ... do not hesitate to contact me.  I'd also be happy to provide a referral, should you need one ... but I'd be surprised if one of the LOs referred to you here was not able to assist.

Best of luck with this transaction,

Gene

I'm in CA and getting a building VA approved is doable if HOA budget is acceptable, but FHA and VA approval takes time, even if they promise 30 days, usually it is closer to 3 months.
