Happy 4th of July from VetNet! 🇺🇸

Today we celebrate the freedoms that unite us and remember the men and women who have defended them through generations of service and sacrifice.

At VetNet, we're proud to serve those who served by connecting Veterans with the resources, opportunities, and community they need to thrive long after the uniform comes off. Freedom isn't just something we celebrate once a year. It's something we honor every day through service to one another.

Whether you're spending today with family, friends, or fellow Veterans, we wish you a safe, meaningful, and memorable Fourth of July.

Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸

VetNet Ocala CADRE - Housing & Finance Summit Hispanic Business Council of Ocala

Marion County's 2nd Annual Reverse Trade Show Hey there! The Marion County Reverse Trade Show flips the script by having buyers visit booths hosted by government agencies.

VetNet Ocala is proud to cohost the CADRE - Housing & Finance Summit on May 28 at The Elliot Center. 🏠🇺🇸

This event is about connecting Veterans, military families, caregivers, and the organizations that serve them with real local resources that can make a difference.

The Marion County Homebuyer Purchase Assistance Program is just one example of the valuable information being shared. Eligible buyers may qualify for help with down payment and closing costs, and many people simply don’t know these programs exist.

That’s exactly why events like this matter.

At the summit, attendees will hear from local professionals and resource providers on topics like:

✅ Homebuyer assistance
✅ VA home loans
✅ Credit repair
✅ Estate planning
✅ Financial readiness
✅ Local Veteran support services

VetNet exists to help Veterans move from Service to Success by connecting them with trusted businesses, professionals, nonprofits, and community resources. Cohosting this summit is another way we’re helping strengthen those connections right here in Marion County.

Service to Success 🇺🇸

🏠 Affordable homeownership may be closer than you think.

This is exactly why the CADRE Housing & Finance Summit matters.

Marion County has local programs that can help eligible buyers with things like down payment and closing cost assistance, including support up to $100,000 through the County’s Homebuyer Purchase Assistance Program.

And this is just one of the many local resources that will have representatives in the room! Not a website, not pamphlet, but a real person that can give you real guidance on how to use these resources.

Whether you’re just starting to think about buying a home, working on your credit, planning for your family’s future, or looking for the right local support, this summit is designed to give Veterans and their families practical information they can actually use.

✅ Housing resources
✅ VA home loan information
✅ Credit repair guidance
✅ Estate planning
✅ Financial readiness
✅ Local Veteran support connections
