Randy Watkins | Willow Bend Mortgage

Many times Randy can find ways to utilize the back doors of financing, enabling people to get in the front door of their next home.

You could say his specialty is VA loans but more than that, his specialty is making friends and persevering in the face of what appear to be obstacles. Randy keeps his clients apprised of every step during the process; sometimes so much that people think he’s a pain for pushing them into not giving up on their dreams.

Originally from North Carolina, Randy came to Texas in 1997 on recruiting duty for the Marines. He stayed in Dallas until 2001 and returned later after retiring from the Marines. Randy’s background in the Marines as a recruiter and recruiter trainer gave him the sales background necessary to be a Residential Mortgage Loan Originator. His experience also enables him to be of service to other veterans, finding ways to get them to home ownership status and save money in the process.

When Randy is not working, you can find him running, reading, participating in several Veteran non-profit organizations or enjoying spending time with his wife. He is an active member of the Dallas-Uptown Rotary Club and will serve as the incoming President in 2015. A couple of Randy’s personal goals for the future are to run a marathon in under four hours and experience the cuisine and culture of Scotland and Ireland.

When he’s gone, Randy wants people to say that he made a positive impact on their life. He hopes they see him as someone who helped them, had integrity, and most of all, he wants people to remember that he truly enjoyed life.
