Parker has a natural drive to encourage and support others. That calling has taken him down a wide spectrum of paths in life, but ultimately cemented him in the mortgage industry. A major reason: homeowners are 70% more likely to build long-term, generational wealth than non-homeowners. The problem is no one teaches this in school, leaving many people unaware of the opportunities available to them
. Parker approaches lending from an education-first mindset. His goal is to bring clarity and transparency to every step so his clients feel confident—not pressured—when making decisions. He builds customized strategies for each client; there is no one-size-fits-all approach. He takes the time to explain every component of the process and is known for finding solutions when there seems to be none. When obstacles arise, he works relentlessly to get the deal across the finish line. Raised in Beaufort, South Carolina, Parker is a graduate of the University of South Carolina, where he studied business, economics, hospitality, and marketing. He married his wife, Katie, in 2018. Together they are raising two energetic boys and a lively golden retriever. The Avera family resides in Charleston, South Carolina, where they enjoy taking full advantage of everything the Lowcountry has to offer.
