Before you choose
Entitlement calculations, funding fee exemptions and VA appraisal rules reward a loan officer who closes VA loans often.
- How many VA loans have you closed in the last year?
- Can you check my remaining entitlement and funding fee status?
- How do you handle a low VA appraisal or the tidewater process?
How this list is ranked
Specialty evidence carries the most weight (production data, then lender page, then self-reported). Loan officers are listed when a LA license is confirmed with the state regulator (check mark), LA is listed on their lender page, or they work at a bank or credit union (likely federally registered; verify at NMLS). Then branch location, experience (licensed since, per the regulator records we hold) and profile completeness. Disciplinary history is not yet checked by LenDb; verify at NMLS Consumer Access. No paid placement. Methodology.
Same list as JSON: /api/v1/loan-officers?specialty=va&state=LA. Not a lender. Not a referral service. Verify licenses at NMLS Consumer Access.
