Michael Aguado is a Navy veteran and mortgage loan originator with Trident Home Loans for over six years but has been in the mortgage industry for 10-plus years. He is nationally ranked in the Scotsman’s Guide for Loan Originating. Mike has created a wealth-building class that you created with his team called Wealth Building with your BAH.

The class was established because we wanted to show active-duty military members how to use their Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) and how to develop passive income with it. Our main goal is to get this class out to as many active-duty members as possible. Having us able to come to them, come to their base, and show them how to use their B.A.H. and growing generational wealth is allowing us to spread knowledge. So far, there has been one class held in Pensacola, Florida. There was another in Savannah, Georgia. We plan to do more in Camp Pendleton, probably in Kansas, Fort Leavenworth, and Fort Riley in the upcoming year. We are also looking at North Carolina, Fayetteville, Fort Bragg, and Southern Pines.

The biggest obstacle we have is getting the word out regarding these classes; you know, being a loan officer or loan originator here at Trident Home Loans, we have developed a lot of trust with our clients and a lot of local realtors. We plan to promote more through social media, Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook, and try to reach those areas to let people know that we are out here. Honestly, we have to keep up with the times and ensure that we continue to get that word out to every client we have.
