I can’t recommend this VA loan specialist enough! After working together for nearly two years, I’m incredibly grateful for the patience, guidance, and unwavering support this honest mortgage broker provided throughout the entire process. Not only did he thoroughly explain every step of my VA loan options, he made sure I secured a great interest rate that worked for my budget and long-term financial goals. His depth of knowledge about VA loans and genuine commitment to veteran clients truly set him apart from other brokers I’ve encountered. If you’re looking for a reliable, responsive, and dedicated professional, look no further—Elias is your guy!

I had an exceptional experience working with Elias. I’ll admit, I thought his “Eli the VA loan guy” moniker was kind of cheesy. However, a VA loan specialist Hawaii is exactly who he is. After working with him I can say he earned his moniker! He guided us through every step of the process. He is a broker, so he was able to offer a much lower interest rate than we were quoted. His honest advice and good communication made us feel confident and informed throughout the entire journey. If you're looking for a trustworthy mortgage loan officer for your Hawaii VA loan, I highly recommend him!

I highly recommend this VA loan expert for anyone looking for a mortgage here in Hawaii. Elias was great and handled my unique VA loan circumstances with ease. He’s a veteran himself and his experience in VA loans showed. He locked me in before rates spiked and had great communication throughout the process. He also had a lowest interest rate compared to other folks I shopped him with.

Elias has consistently been my top choice for expert guidance on VA home loans in Hawaii. Whenever I have inquiries about interest rates, mortgages, or any aspect related to VA home loans in this state, he's the person I turn to for reliable assistance. His invaluable advice and assistance even extended to a year before we relocated to the island, making him an integral part of our home-buying journey!

First thing which drew me to Elias was he is also a veteran. He educated me on the home loan process. From pulling my COE to getting pre-approved, Elias is an expert on VA loans. I shopped rates, and he was able to save me over $7,000 from his competitors, including the one my realtor recommended. Highly recommend Elias. If you have qualify for a VA home loan, you need to speak with him!

Elias was a huge help during our VA loan refinance. He's very knowledgeable, honest, and trustworthy. The process was incredibly smooth and he stayed in constant communication throughout. Even when we had questions on the weekends or after-hours, he was accessible and timely. We hope to work with him again.
