We could not be more satisfied with our experience working with Kyle! From our very first interaction...If you're looking for someone who provides expert guidance, timely responses, and gets it right every single time, Kyle is your guy. He made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and confident. Highly recommend!
I bought a home near Nellis AFB. I used Matt Elliott Mortgage Loan Originator, a Marine Veteran as my Lender, and Air force Veteran Jonny Cosca as my realtor. They made the process quick, simple. and easy. Jonny and Matt are an outstanding team and I highly recommend using them to help purchase a home near Nellis and Creech AFB!!
I worked with Mortgage Loan Originator and Marine Veteran Matt Elliott for a year before I PCS’ed to Fort Hood...bought a home and the process was made easy! I highly recommend Mortgage Matt Elliott and PCS JOES for all your PCS home buying needs.

MRP Training + Real Military Experience
An MRP-certified agent has completed specialized military relocation training, including foundational education about VA financing. It is a valuable credential—but it is not the only measure of whether an agent understands your move.
Some PCS JOES Realtors are MRP certified. We do not require the designation because all PCS JOES Realtors are veterans or military spouses with firsthand experience navigating military life, PCS timelines, and the realities facing military families.
A certification provides foundational training. PCS JOES adds lived military experience, local real estate expertise, and veteran VA loan officers whose work is focused primarily on VA borrowers.
Why That Matters for Your PCS

Guidance shaped around orders, reporting dates, deployments, and remote home searches.

Our veteran loan officers primarily process VA loans and understand VA eligibility, appraisals, property requirements, benefits, and closing from the inside out.

An agent who understands military family priorities because they have lived the lifestyle.

Help comparing neighborhoods, schools, commute times, and access to your installation.
