Why work with me

You get my direct line, not a call center: call or text and I pick up myself. As an independent broker, I'm not tied to one bank — I shop your loan across multiple lenders to find what actually fits your situation.

Questions Florida buyers ask

How does mortgage pre-approval work?

I review your income, assets, and credit, then issue a pre-approval letter showing the loan amount you're conditionally approved for, based on what you've shared. Once I have your documents, it's often quick, and it gives you a clear budget before you start touring homes.

Will a pre-approval affect my credit score?

The short form on this page doesn't pull your credit. A full pre-approval does involve a credit check, which can cause a small, temporary dip in your score. I'll walk you through exactly what's being pulled and when before we run anything.

What's the minimum down payment?

It depends on the loan program — some options allow a small down payment, while others, like VA loans, can require none at all for eligible buyers. I'll go over what you qualify for based on your situation.

Can I finance a condo?

Yes, though condo financing has extra requirements around the building itself, like owner-occupancy rates, reserve funds, and, in Florida, the milestone inspection and reserve study rules for many condo buildings. I can help you check whether a specific building is likely to qualify before you make an offer.

What's the difference between working with a broker and a bank?

A bank generally offers its own loan products. As an independent broker, I can shop your loan across multiple lenders to find terms that fit your situation, and you work with me directly from application to closing.

Prefer I review your info first and follow up?

Fill this out and I'll get back to you personally — takes about 2 minutes, no credit pull required.
