Working to Your Report Date
The Mike Webb Team is Mike and Claudia Webb, with RE/MAX Allegiance, and we have more than 34 years in real estate. We have helped many VA buyers, military buyers and veterans, and we love working with them.
Orders can leave you very little time. We build the search, the offer and the closing around your report date. If you are still at your current station, we tour Barcroft homes for you on FaceTime, inside and out. When you visit, we show you the park, the Four Mile Run Trail and Columbia Pike in person.
You get a consultation, a search set up to your criteria, a home value report before every offer, negotiation, inspection help and support through the final walk-through and closing. Before we tour homes, you get pre-approved, and we sign a written buyer agreement together so you know exactly how we will work with you.

VA Loans and Barcroft's Older Homes
VA home loans help Veterans, service members and their survivors buy, build, improve or refinance a home. According to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, nearly 90% of VA-backed loans are made with no down payment. You will need a Certificate of Eligibility, or COE, and your lender can help you get it.
According to the Barcroft School and Civic League, the central part of Barcroft has homes from the 1880s to the 1980s, many built by Walter O'Hara and his son Robert starting in 1918. With an older house, ask your VA lender early what the loan will require of the home, and have the inspection look carefully at the roof, wiring and plumbing. We can coordinate the inspection, or you can schedule it yourself. If you are considering a duplex or a home in an owners' association, ask your lender whether it works with a VA loan.
We will connect you with lenders who do VA financing if you need one. They explain your options and what you qualify for. This page is general information, not lending advice.
