If you’re thinking about purchasing or refinancing a home, I’m here to guide you through the process—from application through closing.

As a Loan Advisor, my main goal is to help guide my clients through the home-buying process with care, efficiency, and attention to detail. 

 

Prior to my time in the mortgage industry, I served my country in the United States Air Force National Guard, including a tour to Iraq during my 8 years of service.  This experience instilled in me the discipline necessary to run my own company, where I gained experience in construction, realty, real estate investments, and mortgage lending.

 

My desire to help others led me to Flagstar, where I could use my expertise as a Personal Relationship Banker.  My deep knowledge of the personal finance and real estate industries allows me to see the big picture and assist my clients in identifying the right loan for each unique situation. I make it my priority to educate my clients so that they are able to make informed decisions. 

 

Outside of the office, I enjoy spending time with my wife and children.  We have two daughters and were recently blessed with twins, one boy and one girl.  My hobbies include running and snowboarding.

Today's Rate
Mortgage Rate APR

15-Year Fixed 6.273% 6.518% 2
FHA 30-Year Fixed 5.752% 6.631% 3

1Rate 7.118% with an APR of 7.274% as of 11/8/2024 10:02 AM EST. The APR calculation is based on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage in the amount of $240,000 for the purchase of a single-family, primary residence with 80% loan-to-value (LTV) or 20% down payment, minimum borrower credit score of 740, and estimated points of 1% of the loan amount, and origination fee of $1,295 with 360 monthly payments in the amount of $1,616. Payment amount does not include taxes and insurance which means your monthly obligation will be greater. Actual payment amount will vary based upon credit history, rates in effect at the time of consummation, LTV and other credit factors. A LTV ratio above 80% may result in a need for mortgage insurance. If mortgage insurance is required, the amount of your payment will increase. The APR is subject to change at any time prior to consummation, and individual APRs may vary for loan purchases and loan refinances due to loan programs being offered, loan volume, or other factors. All borrowers are subject to qualification, underwriting approval, lender terms and conditions. Terms, conditions, and rates are subject to change without notice.
