About Matthew

Combat Veteran. Mortgage Broker. Colorado Springs Local.

My career began with eight years of active duty in the US Army — Infantry, Staff Sergeant, three combat deployments including Afghanistan (OEF) and Iraq (OIF). When I transitioned out, I landed in Colorado Springs with my wife and kids and a conviction that people deserve a straight deal on the biggest financial decision of their lives.

I became a mortgage broker because I hated watching people get steered into the wrong loan by someone chasing a commission. With access to 60+ banks, I don't have that problem. I find the best fit. no surprises, no middleman, and always the most competitive rates.

Today, I specialize in VA loans for the military community I served alongside — active duty at Fort Carson, Peterson SFB, USAFA, and Schriever SFB, plus veterans and surviving spouses throughout Colorado.

Verifiable Facts

How to Verify My License

The mortgage industry has its share of bad actors. I welcome verification. Here's how to confirm my credentials:

  1. Go to NMLS Consumer Access — the official federal database
  2. Search for "Matthew Hager" or NMLS #1906682
  3. You'll see my license status, employment history, and any disciplinary actions (there are none)
  4. You can also verify Xpert Home Lending Inc. at NMLS #2179191

My Philosophy

In the Army, the mission came first. That hasn't changed. Your mission — getting into the right home at the right price with the right loan — is my mission now. I don't push products. I don't use high-pressure tactics. I give you the facts, shop 60+ lenders, and help you make the best decision for your family.

As a combat veteran who's used a VA loan myself, I know the system inside and out. I know what it's like to PCS with a family. I know what it's like to buy a home near a military base. And I know that veterans and active duty families deserve better than the generic treatment they get from big banks.
