NMLS #72043 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org Equal Opportunity Lender I truly love my job. Helping someone buy a home brings them joy, and a peace of mind that only owning your own home can bring. Atlantic Bay Mortgage Group offers a wide variety of mortgage loan products including FHA, VA, USDA, Conventional, Jumbo, Construction, Renovation, and refinancing options. I pride myself on providing all of my clients exceptional service throughout their entire loan process and beyond. I want them to consider me a friend, and someone they can come to through all the stages in life. You can call, email, come see me personally or apply on my website and I can get you pre-qualified before you even start looking for a home. If you aren't quite ready to buy a home due to credit or financial issues, I will be more than happy to assist you in getting where you need to be, no matter how long it takes. NMLS #1476316
