OUR EDUCATIONAL SERVICES
My name is Christine Hamilton, I am the founder and Executive Director of EOD Home Buying. I am passionate about helping service members to understand the process when buying a home. I would like to offer an opportunity to your unit(s) where my team and I can share our knowledge and resources with those interested.
-
We can tailor the amount of information and time to meet your intent, desired level of understanding, and available training time.
-
Historically, the average educational course would last approximately 90 minutes, 60 min of information sharing/instruction and 30 minutes for Q&A.


Intent:
It is our goal to educate service members about the VA loan process, the benefits and resources afforded to them through their service, and to address common misconceptions about the VA loan. The education we provide can protect service members and their families from predatory services and financial strain.
Resources:
Former Air Force EOD Technician, and lending officer, Justin Hamilton will speak on the VA loan, how to use the VA loan, and how it benefits your soldiers when buying a home. One of our real estate agents will speak on all the services and responsibilities to be expected from a real estate agent when buying or selling a home. We can work with you to target content provided specific to your installation and specific area.
We provide a short survey to identify the impact our course made on service members' understanding of the VA loan and the home buying process. These results can be shared with your leadership.
We are also able to supplement your SFRG program by offering some financial help and other resources to host events as part of our program when we are invited to provide our instruction if you would like.
Help and resources include; but are not limited to, financial help for catering, take home resources, rented party toys for kids, and many others. All of this can be discussed and agreed upon as a part of our instruction planning process.
Time:
We have found that leaving 30 minutes following the class to go over specific questions has been most beneficial to people since each group varies in their level of experience and understanding in the home buying process. We also recommend an informal meet and greet afterwards for individual concerns or questions.
