Why Kelly Jackson and the KJAX Group

I am not just an ordinary Military Relocation Specialist. I come from a military family. My father served in the Air Force as a Pilot. My son served in the Army as a Medic. My brothers have worn the uniform. My inlaws served in the Marine Corps. My nephews are serving.

 

I know what a PCS move costs a family, not just financially, but emotionally. The rushed timelines. The schools you're leaving behind. The uncertainty of starting over in a new city.

 

That's why I built the KJAX Group to serve military families the way I'd want my own family served, with honesty, urgency, and deep knowledge of the DMV market, VA loans, and base housing alternatives.

 

When you work with me, you're not just getting an agent. You're getting someone who has sat at the kitchen table with people just like you.

 

I hold the Military Relocation Professional (MRP) certification, partner with VA-savvy lenders, and offer a military discount, because service should be rewarded, not just thanked.

We Know VA Loans Inside and Out.

The VA Home Loan benefit is one of the most powerful financial tools available to service members and veterans, and one of the most misunderstood.
 
KJAX Group partners exclusively with VA-savvy lenders who close VA loans on time, every time. Here's what we help you navigate:

No down payment required on VA-eligible properties

No private mortgage insurance (PMI), saving you hundreds per month

Competitive interest rates typically below conventional loan averages

VA loan entitlement, including second-tier and restored entitlement

VA funding fee exemptions for service-connected disability ratings

Properties that meet VA appraisal and MPR (Minimum Property Requirements)

Timing your closing around PCS orders and BAH effective dates
 
And just as important, this is not a one-time benefit. Qualified buyers can use their VA loan more than once over their lifetime, making it a long-term strategy, not just a single transaction.
You earned this benefit. We make sure you use it to its full advantage.
 
VA loans are one of the most powerful tools available to military buyers. If you want to review official eligibility guidelines, you can visit the VA’s loan resource page.

PCS timelines don't wait. Neither do we. Here's exactly how we work with military families from the moment orders drop to the day you get your keys. We offer comprehesive buyer services to ease the stress of a PCS move.


1. Orders drop. We activate immediately
Contact Kelly & Keith as soon as you receive PCS orders. We begin your home search remotely so you're not starting from zero when you arrive. Virtual tours, video walkthroughs, and market briefings are available from day one.


2. Pre-approval with a Top VA Lender
We connect you with lenders who specialize in VA loans in the DMV; people who understand military pay, BAH, and closing on a tight PCS schedule.


3. Neighborhood matching based on your base and lifestyle
We narrow your search by commute to base, school ratings, BAH range, and family priorities. Every recommendation is intentional.


4. Offer, negotiation, and VA-specific contract terms
VA transactions require specific contract language. We negotiate terms that protect you, including VA appraisal contingencies and seller concession strategies that maximize your savings.


5. Closing coordinated around your report date
We work backward from your report date to set a closing timeline that keeps you on track, whether you need 21 days or 60.


6. Settling in support
Need a referral for movers, utilities, schools, or local resources? KJAX Group's military family network has you covered well after closing day.

We ended up with a stronger offer and a smooth closing. If you want real results, Kelly Jackson and the KJAX Group is the one to call.

Silver Spring Happy Home Seller

I had done my research on FSBO and was ready to list myself. Kelly offered a free valuation with no strings and showed me I was about to underprice my home by $40,000. I listed with her and closed above asking in 9 days. The data she brought to that first conversation changed my decision entirely.

Leslie M.

Kelly brought a clear strategy from the beginning and executed at a high level. The entire process felt controlled and professional from start to finish. Her preparation, communication and negotiation skills made all the difference. I would recommend you cal her first.

Military Relocation in the DMV | Frequently Asked Questions

What is a PCS move and how does it affect buying a home?

A PCS (Permanent Change of Station) move is a military reassignment to a new duty location. Service members typically have 30–90 days to report. Most use their VA home loan benefit to purchase a home at the new duty station, often buying before or shortly after arrival. A specialized military relocation agent can help coordinate the purchase around the PCS timeline.
