Closest to base. Quick commute, strong military presence, best value for your VA dollar. Most popular with active-duty families.
I'm Christian Chacon — Air Force veteran and licensed California Realtor® with JetSet Homes. I help active-duty service members and veterans buy and sell homes near Travis AFB using every benefit they've earned. I've been stationed. I know the move.
Stationed at Vandenberg SFB & Keesler AFB. I write VA offers that win in this market.
Six years active-duty Air Force across Vandenberg SFB and Keesler AFB. SFSU Business-Finance grad. Now I show up for military families the way I wish someone had shown up for me — with straight answers, no pressure, and a plan built around your timeline.
I'm fluent in PCS orders, VA entitlement, BAH math, and the kind of offers that actually win — from Solano County down to the East Bay (Oakland, Walnut Creek, Dublin, Fremont). You served. Let me serve you back.
Whether you're incoming to Travis AFB, PCSing out, or a veteran ready to plant roots in the Bay Area — I've got you covered.
Full buyer process — from VA pre-approval to keys. I work with lenders who know how to close military buyers in a competitive market.
Got orders? I sell fast and clean so your move isn't delayed. Your timeline runs the play — not mine.
Not active duty but ready to use your VA benefit? I help veterans maximize entitlement — including first-time users.
The VA loan is one of the most powerful financial benefits the government offers. Most service members never use it to its full potential. Let's fix that.
Conventional buyers need 20% down near Travis — on a $600K home that's $120K. Your service already paid that.
PMI can cost $200–400/month on conventional loans. VA loans have none — thousands saved every year.
VA loans consistently price below conventional. Over 30 years that's tens of thousands in your pocket.
When you PCS, your buyer may assume your VA rate — making your home easier to sell and more valuable.
VA disability comp may exempt you from the funding fee — thousands saved upfront at closing.
Your entitlement doesn't expire. PCS again — use it again. It can be restored throughout your life.

Fresh numbers from the national, East Bay, North Bay & Peninsula single-family markets — pulled from this month's JetSet Homes Market Update. No fluff, just what's actually happening on the ground.
Single-family data, May. MSI = Months of Supply Inventory. Under 3 mo = seller's market, ~3 mo = balanced, over 3 mo = buyer's market. Source: NAR + Bay Area MLS aggregates.
Both Alameda (+2.96%) and Contra Costa (+2.50%) posted year-over-year single-family gains for the first time in over a year. Momentum is shifting back toward sellers across the East Bay.
East Bay single-family inventory is down 27.38% year-over-year. Fewer homes on the market means stronger competition — strategy and a sharp offer matter more than ever.
Single-family homes in both Alameda and Contra Costa are moving in roughly two weeks — about 7% faster than this time last year. Pre-approval and tour readiness are non-negotiable.
Alameda condos sit at 4.4 months of supply and Contra Costa at 4.2 — both buyer's territory. If a condo is on your radar, leverage is on your side right now.
"Inventory is tight and good single-family homes are gone in under two weeks across the East Bay. If you're PCSing in, the play is simple: get VA pre-approved early, tour fast, and write a clean offer. If you're sitting on a home and thinking about selling — the leverage is yours right now. Let's talk strategy before the next move."
