Monday 🌮🎉 I had a blast celebrating Cinco de Mayo with the amazing teachers and staff at Westside Elementary! Nothing brings people together like a good taco bar — and it was my pleasure to serve up some lunchtime appreciation for the everyday heroes shaping our kids’ futures. 🏫❤️

Thank you all for what you do — you inspire me more than you know!

Where it all started. I am grateful to work for such and amazing company!

At FirstTrust Home Loans, our number one goal is to provide you with the confidence and reliability you deserve throughout your home financing journey. With humble beginnings and deep roots in the relationships we've built with our clients and the communities we serve, we are proud to be a family-started and owned company.

Our owner and CEO, Glenn Strong, began his career in the mortgage industry as a Loan Originator before establishing his brokerage. In 2003, he founded First Arkansas Financial, Inc. in his hometown of Sheridan, Arkansas. As we expanded into neighboring states, we transformed into FirstTrust Home Loans.

For over 20 years, we’ve been honored to serve thousands of homeowners and share our vision for an exceptional home financing experience.

The journey to homeownership begins with a strong foundation. Start your path to success today!

Looking to upgrade to your dream home? Begin by ensuring your current home is sell-ready for maximum success! 🏡✨

Start by putting your home in excellent condition for prospective buyers. Declutter, remove personal items, and create a fresh, inviting atmosphere. 🧹🖼️ Don’t forget about curb appeal—consider adding new landscaping and enhancing your front entrance for a warm welcome. 🌿🚪

Staging your home not only enhances its attractiveness but also allows buyers to envision themselves living there. With the right preparations, you'll be ready to sell quickly and embark on your next adventure!
