The time to buy is not always now and no one should shame you if renting is your choice. I help people by listening to them and working with them in the context of their own worldview. I help by taking the time to educate and counsel – and by connecting them with other resources, which may include attorneys, certified legal document preparers (CLDPs), real estate agents of like-philosophies, and e
ven other lenders if I am not a good fit. I have experience in all aspects of first mortgage lending for purchase or refinance – forward or reverse mortgages, and some pretty sexy niche products like our checking account loan (Home Select). I also have excellent second mortgage and home equity loan products that may be used in conjunction with a new first mortgage, or as stand-alone loans for any number of purposes, including debt consolidation. Second mortgages and home equity loans are extremely helpful in a higher and rising first mortgage rate environment because they can help with the consolidation of debt that is prime rate-driven, making some people’s lives a nightmare trying to keep up with minimum payments. I do not advocate using home equity recklessly, but I am an advocate for looking at best-case options that allow you to live your life with less stress and fear. I am also a certified divorce lending professional (CDLP), which means I am uniquely qualified in helping people contemplating divorce, at any stage of the divorce process, or divorced and looking for unique solutions to home ownership. I do not charge for consultations. I am paid only if you decide to work with me on a mortgage; however, my consultations are not sales pitches.
