A move to Central Virginia gave Six33 Mortgage’s broker a new local beginning

Joel Battige brought a long lending career to Central Virginia, but a move from Florida still meant building new professional relationships. That transition was among the subjects of his July appearance on the local podcast Talk Local To Me.

Battige operates Six33 Mortgage from Forest. His brokerage’s published loan programs range from conventional home loans to FHA, VA and USDA options, along with refinancing and home equity loans. He also works with one-time-close construction financing, a different starting point from buying an already completed home.

The podcast’s description of the conversation traces more than two decades in lending and the challenge of earning the trust of local real estate professionals after relocating. It also highlights the role of the Central Virginia Business Alliance in supporting his business, placing his brokerage within the region’s network of independently operated firms.

Six33’s own introduction identifies Battige as licensed in Virginia and Florida. That connection preserves a link to his earlier market while he develops the business in his current home state. His public contact goes directly to him, rather than to a national call center.

For Central Virginia borrowers, the firm offers a local point of contact for purchases, refinances and construction-related financing. Six33 Mortgage can be reached at 434-760-5622 or Joel@Six33Mortgage.com.
