As a branch manager and the leader of this team, I expect each staff member to bring their best effort every day. I realize that you are trusting us to assist with a marquee moment in your life, and understand the significance of that.

Prior to this career, I was a public servant. My experiences serving both my country and local community have shaped the paradigm from which I approach mortgage lending, and my unique experiences allow me to take a different approach toward problem-solving than others in the industry.

Whether your goal is to build, purchase, or refinance a home, we will forge a path to get you to that objective.

When other lenders have turned down challenging VA mortgages, One Time Close Construction Loans, Investment properties, and other difficult home loans, I have embraced those challenges and made a name for myself as someone who can navigate lending guidelines to solve puzzles other lenders won’t even attempt.

Finding our page was the first step in your journey. Tell me your goal, and our team will stop at nothing to get it done.

Ready to build your dream home?

Our team offers Conventional, FHA, and VA one time close construction loans up to $4 million, so that virtually everyone has an option to obtain land and build their dream home with as little money down as possible.

Whether you are looking to build a traditional stick built home, or something more unique like a custom “barndominium” or tiny container home, our low down payment construction loans can provide a cost effective option to get there in a single transaction.

Reverse Mortgage
A reverse mortgage* is a way for seniors to turn their home’s equity into cash to meet any financial need. Unlike traditional home equity loans, a reverse mortgage does not require repayment until the home is sold, or the last borrower permanently leaves the home. Borrowers are responsible to cover taxes, insurance, HOA fees, and property maintenance, just like any other mortgage.

   The borrower(s) continue to own the home (the bank does not own it!).
   The borrower(s) can never owe more than the home is worth.
   There is no prepayment penalty.
  The reverse mortgage must be paid back when the home is no longer the borrower(s) primary residence.
