Whether you're a first-time buyer, purchasing a second home or simply refinancing, I can personalize a home lending solution that’s tailor-fit to your needs.

I have been in the mortgage business for 20 years. My strength is the extensive knowledge I have gained from closing over 2,000 loans since arriving at Flagstar in 2007. Although the mortgage business can be challenging and unpredictable, my experience is the reason my clients are referred to me. I believe in constant, open communication, and my clients can reach me after hours and on weekends. I can help you with FHA, VA, USDA, MSHDA, conventional, jumbo, and renovation loans.

 

I reside in Birmingham, Michigan, with my wife, daughter, two sons, and two cats. I am an avid musician, and I also play golf and hockey.

 

I look forward to exceeding your expectations!

Sooooo glad I used them!!!! WOOHOO! I really appreciate all the feedback and quick responses. Being a new homeowner, they made the process very easy to understand and made themselves immediately available for any questions I had.
Angelene F., Macomb, MI
Sean was professional, kind, and a great help in closing on my new home. He responded promptly to any message or call and was always willing to help and keep me in the loop, even when I was overanxious and asking all the time what the status was.
Carrie B., South Lyon, MI
Sean was great to work with through the entire mortgage process. He responded to questions very quickly and explained things thoroughly. He always followed up when he said he would. I highly recommend Sean to help you with your mortgage needs.
Dan M., Oak Park, MI
Sean is every homebuyer's dream loan officer. He is very thorough and responsive. He stayed on top of the loan process to ensure we closed in a timely manner. He is a master of his practice.
Sean W., Big Rapids MI
Shopped all the mortgage options and found what was best for us. We closed in just over 30 days. Returned phone calls even on Saturdays. A great lender for Vets and anyone who is a beginner to the home-buying experience.
Faith N., Allen Park MI
Quick and easy process. I've tried unsuccessfully to close my refi with 3 different banks. Sean was able to fix the problem immediately. I'm very grateful that he was able to help me. He also always answered my questions and returned my calls asap.
Ioan H., Westland MI
He went out of his way to help us, and was very knowledgeable and made everything go smooth and easy for us. There were lots of things that we did not understand on some files, and my husband called him up and he explained them to us....
Kevin D., Redford MI
Very personable loan officer. When I had questions, he took time to get me to understand the process. I like that I could text him, and he would answer back immediately. We closed in a very short time with Sean. I recommend everyone use him for your loan!
Andrea M., Plymouth MI
SEAN BALCOM IS AMAZING! He is professional, quick to respond, and he truly cared about helping us get approved for our dream home. We just closed on our house in Plymouth and could not have been happier with the Flagstar experience start to finish.
