Proudly serving clients across New York.
I know that buying or refinancing a home is one of the biggest financial decisions that my clients will ever make. That's why I work hard to ensure my team has the resources and know-how to ease borrowers through the loan process, with no detail overlooked.
I have an extensive background in all facets of mortgage lending, so I can advise my team members in any situation, from a first-time home purchase to a refinancing. My expertise includes Conventional, Jumbo, FHA, VA, USDA, and Renovation loans.
I also make a point of keeping up with the latest financial and industry trends, as well as state and federal regulatory requirements, so I can serve as an informed advocate for my team and our clients. I make sure my team will not only get clients a loan, but the most competitive loan for them.
