I always advise my clients to start the home buying process by speaking with a mortgage professional. It is this person who can explain to you all the loan products available, and together, you can determine which is best for your needs and goals. In today's market, it has become almost a necessity to be pre-approved prior to beginning your home search. This gives you a clear idea of the range in which you should concentrate your home search, as well as gives you a competitive edge when you can attach the pre-approval letter to any offer we might submit. The mortgage rofessional is an important part of our team and someone with whom we will both work with very closely. Since they have key deliverables, it's important to use someone reputable, and with a good track record for on-time delivery. I always encourage my clients to speak with more than one to make sure you're getting the est deal available, and you're choosing someone with whom you will work well.
Below are several partners that I've worked with in the past. Feel free to consider them in your search.
