I’ve been in mortgages since I was 19, and my experience goes well beyond taking applications. From managing processing and underwriting to serving as Director of Residential Lending, I’ve had the opportunity to learn this business from a lot of different angles.

What does that mean for you? I know what to look for, what questions to ask, and how to work through a complicated file. I’m hands-on, I’ll give you a straight answer, and I’ll put in the work to explore your options.

Buying, refinancing, or just wondering where you stand? Shoot me a message. Let’s talk.

More options, better results.

Mortgage rates are taking a beating today… and your newsfeed will probably be full of gloom and doom.

But here’s a bright spot: the equity you’ve built in your home could give you options.

Giving up that low COVID-era rate isn’t easy. But if your family needs a bigger home, look beyond the mortgage payment.

What are you paying each month for your mortgage, credit cards, and auto loans combined?

For some homeowners, using equity from a home sale to pay off other debts could mean a higher mortgage payment but lower total monthly debt payments and a home that better fits their family.

Everyone’s situation is different. Closing costs and long-term costs still matter. That’s where I help you work through the numbers and build a plan.

Today’s headlines do not know your budget. Let’s look at YOUR numbers.

We closed another loan this week.... a full week ahead of schedule, after receiving the clear-to-close on a Sunday morning!

There’s an old myth that mortgage brokers are at a disadvantage because we don’t have an underwriter “in-office.”

The truth? We have access to several underwriting departments.... and they compete for our business.

That means I can choose the lender, loan program, and underwriting team that best fits each borrower instead of trying to force every client into the same box.

A Sunday clear-to-close. A closing one week early.

More options. Better results.

That’s the Broker Brothers Advantage!

Can you get approved for a mortgage with a 580 credit score?

Possibly, yes.

But getting approved and receiving the best financing terms are two very different things.

A lower credit score represents more risk to a lender, and that risk usually comes with tradeoffs:

• Higher interest rates or added loan costs
• Mortgage insurance
• Fewer available loan programs
• Less flexibility in the debt-to-income ratio
• A smaller margin for changes in taxes, insurance, debts, or income
• More documentation and a more sensitive approval

That doesn’t mean you can’t become a homeowner. It means we have to be realistic: if your credit is 580, you probably won’t receive the same options or pricing as someone with a 740 score.

Sometimes my job is finding a path when the easy answer would be no. Other times, the smartest move is improving the credit profile before buying.

Either way, I’ll give you the honest numbers…. not simply tell you what you want to hear to get an application.

More options. Better results.
