EQUAL HOUSING OPPORTUNITY

I have 20 years of experience in mortgage lending, specializing in VA loans. In that time, I have had the opportunity to build a very diverse group of clients ranging from pilots and company owners using jumbo financing to first time home buyers utilizing FHA or USDA financing. My branch and I offer each client options and advice that are tailored to their short and long term goals. THE DEPARTMENT MAINTAINS A RECOVERY FUND TO MAKE PAYMENTS OF CERTAIN ACTUAL OUT OF POCKET DAMAGES SUSTAINED BY BORROWERS CAUSED BY ACTS OF LICENSED RESIDENTIALMORTGAGE LOAN ORIGINATORS. A WRITTEN APPLICATION FOR REIMBURSEMENT FROM THE RECOVERY FUND MUST BE FILED WITH AND INVESTIGATED BY THE DEPARTMENT PRIOR TO THE PAYMENT OF A CLAIM. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE RECOVERY FUND, PLEASE CONSULT THE DEPARTMENT'S WEBSITE AT WWW.SML.TEXAS.GOV
