As a real estate agent, I’ve worked with a lot of lenders over the years, but Brad stands out every single time. He’s handled many of my transactions, and I keep going back because he simply gets the job done. He’s aggressive when it comes to finding the best rates and solutions for clients, and he doesn’t let anything slip through the cracks. He communicates clearly, moves fast, and always follows through. When clients ask me who I recommend for a lender, he’s always at the top of my list.Posted on John StricklinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brad did a great job for me and my family. Our circumstance was unusually complicated but Brad never missed a beat! He maintained an encouraging “We’ll get this done!” attitude as we navigated the obstacles and there were plenty! We’re home/property owners today because of his efforts. I’m confident we would not have been successful in this purchase without Brad’s commitment to us.

A flexible option for buyers with strong credit. Competitive pricing, low down payment options, and fixed terms. We help you choose PMI structure and cash to close so your monthly payment stays comfortable and your financing supports long term value.
Programs that can reduce the upfront cost of buying, including low down payment options and down payment assistance for eligible borrowers. Terms vary by area and income limits may apply. We compare options and explain tradeoffs so you choose confidently.
A powerful benefit for eligible veterans, active duty service members, and some surviving spouses. Many VA loans allow zero down with no monthly mortgage insurance. We guide you through eligibility, funding fee details, and appraisal steps so closing stays smooth.
Built for business owners, freelancers, and borrowers with complex income. We help you qualify using the right documentation, including tax returns, profit and loss, or bank statements when allowed. Expect a clear plan, clean paperwork, and a smoother underwriting process.
Flexible options for borrowers who do not fit standard guidelines, including self employed, complex income, or unique property scenarios. Non QM may use alternative documentation such as bank statements or asset based qualification. We compare programs and pricing so you choose the best fit confidently.
A strong option for buyers who need a smaller down payment or more credit flexibility, often 3.5 percent down. We explain mortgage insurance, cash to close, and property rules so you can plan clearly and move to closing with confidence.
A Non QM option for self employed borrowers whose tax returns do not reflect true cash flow. Many programs use 12 to 24 months of deposits to estimate income. We review statements, document deposits cleanly, and match you to a program that approves smoothly.
Investor financing that qualifies primarily using the property’s rental income rather than your personal income. DSCR measures whether rent covers the mortgage payment. Ideal for scaling a portfolio. We review rent estimates, reserves, and down payment so approvals stay smooth and cash flow stays realistic.
Designed for contractors and commission earners paid on a 1099 who need a mortgage that fits variable income. Depending on the program, qualification may use tax returns or bank statement deposits. We review your income pattern and documents early for a smooth approval.
A flexible option for self employed borrowers who can document income with a profit and loss statement instead of tax returns, depending on lender guidelines. We review your cash flow, verify documents, and choose terms that approve smoothly.
Designed for higher loan amounts that exceed conventional limits. Jumbo financing often requires stronger credit, larger down payment, and verified reserves. We help you structure the loan strategically, organize documentation early, and compare pricing options so your approval and payment stay predictable.
Financing built for rental and portfolio buyers. Options may include conventional investor loans and DSCR style programs that focus on rental cash flow. We help you plan down payment, reserves, and documentation so approvals stay smooth and your cash flow goals stay realistic.
Mortgage options for borrowers who file U.S. taxes with an ITIN instead of a Social Security number. Guidelines vary by lender, so documentation matters. We confirm eligibility, review income and assets, and build a clear plan for purchase or refinance with confidence.
Replace your current mortgage to lower your rate, change your term, remove mortgage insurance, or access equity. The best refinance depends on your breakeven timeline and monthly payment goals. We compare scenarios clearly so you can choose the smartest move.
Convert a portion of your home equity into cash by replacing your current mortgage with a larger loan. Often used for debt consolidation, renovations, or major expenses. We review value, costs, and payment impact so the new loan improves your overall strategy.
Zero down financing for eligible primary homes in qualified areas, with household income limits that must be met. Many buyers are surprised which locations qualify. We verify address eligibility, income limits, and documentation early so you can shop confidently and keep closing on track.
A home equity option for eligible older homeowners that can provide cash flow or a line of credit without monthly mortgage payments. You remain responsible for taxes, insurance, and maintenance. We explain eligibility, costs, and family considerations so the plan fits your long term goals.

Pre qualification is a quick estimate based on basic info, while pre approval reviews documents and credit so your budget and approval strength are much more reliable.
A pre approval usually includes a credit check which can cause a small temporary dip, but for most borrowers it is minor and outweighed by the clarity and leverage you gain when making offers.
It depends on the loan program and your goals. Some buyers can purchase with low down or even zero down, but the best plan considers monthly payment, closing costs, and keeping reserves.
Minimums vary by program and lender, but approval is based on the full profile, credit score, payment history, debt, and stable income. If you are close, small changes can improve approval and pricing.
Yes. Student loans are common and often manageable, but how they are counted depends on the loan type and repayment status, so we calculate them correctly from the start.
Avoid opening new credit, changing jobs without discussing it, making large undocumented deposits, or moving money between accounts without a paper trail. Small changes can create big underwriting questions.
Closing costs include lender fees, title, escrow, appraisal, and prepaid items like taxes and insurance. A good plan is to budget a realistic range early and then refine once you are under contract.
A rate lock holds your interest rate for a set period while the loan is processed. Lock timing matters, so we align it with your contract timeline and your comfort with market movement.
Yes. A denial often means the program or documentation strategy was not the right fit. We review the reason, rebuild the plan, and choose a better path based on guidelines and your real profile.
It depends on your current rate, how much cash you need, whether you want flexible access, and your payment comfort level. We compare the options side by side so you can choose the smartest move.
