Glenn Leach (NMLS 112932 & 1907) is a Top Producing Loan Officer with the largest VA lender in the country. He has been doing mortgage lending for 22+ years. He is a certified teacher with endorsements in History, Economics, Social Studies, English, & Language Arts, and he just completed a Master’s Degree in Strategic Communications from Washington State University (April 2025 – Building this website was one of his final projects for that degree).
The “VA Battle Plan” book series (Find out more in the “My Books” section) was written to educate and encourage VA clients and the Real Estate Agents who want to serve them. Inspiration came from these horrifying statistics
“Only 24% of VA-eligible borrowers who apply for a home loan actually end up doing a VA loan”, and “Only 13% of Veterans EVER utilize their VA Home Loan Benefit”.
There is no excuse for this. The VA loan is almost ALWAYS the best lending option for Veterans, and the percentage of eligible borrowers who don’t get one points to way too much industry complacency and ignorance.
Glenn began his career as a Loan Officer in 2002. From 2010-2014 he was awarded the Premier Partner honor from Washington State Housing Finance Commission for being Top 10 in the State of Washington for Down Payment Assistance originations. In 2015 he began his focus on VA loans working for the largest VA purchase lender in the country.
He met his Bride of 40+ years at a music competition during high school and they have been making beautiful music together ever since. He loves spending time with his 3 adult children, his two incredible grandchildren, and misses his long-time companion wiener dog Lily. Time spent singing, gardening, and hiking outdoors with his wife in the beautiful Pacific Northwest and National Parks around the country, and running on his NordicTrack Treadmill bring joy and balance to the hectic life as a producing loan officer.
His business motto:
“And my people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting places.” Isaiah 32:18
