My proudest moments as a lender isn’t tied to a single transaction – it’s the trust and relationships I’ve built over time. I’m always honored and humbled when customer’s refer their family and friends to me because that means I’ve earned their confidence. But what means the most is when clients come back to me years later because they knew that I truly cared and always had their best interest at heart. I’ve even had customers come into my office just to give me a hug – grateful for the compassion and support I showed during some of their most difficult financial moments. Helping someone keep their home during a time of hardship is one of the most meaningful parts of what I do. To me, that’s what this work is really all about: being there with care, integrity and heart when people need it most.

My advice would be to educate yourself and don’t be afraid to ask questions. Understanding your credit, income and budget is the foundation. Know what you can realistically afford and not just want you think you can afford. Surround yourself with a team you trust, especially a local lender who will take the time to explain the process, review your options and guide you with care. It’s not just about getting approved, it’s about getting into the loan that’s right for you and being prepared for the responsibilities of homeownership. The more informed you are, the more empowered and confident you’ll feel throughout the journey.
