About Joshua

Proudly serving clients across New York, Florida and New Jersey.

I grew up and continue to live in the Shoreham Wading River community with my wife Dani and our four children—Benjamin, Colin, Sean, and Lana. When I’m not working with clients, I enjoy spending time with family by the pool, hosting BBQs, and watching baseball and football. Our home is always lively with our two dogs, Daisy (a Dalmatian) and Tilly (a Shichon).

With over 20 years in the mortgage industry, my focus has always been simple: helping clients find the best financing solutions and giving them a competitive edge in today’s market. I take pride in listening closely to my clients’ goals and guiding them into the program that best fits their needs. One of the ways I help buyers stand out is through programs like AnnieMac’s Cash Offer, which can allow buyers to waive contingencies such as appraisal, mortgage, and even home sale contingencies—helping strengthen their offer and compete in competitive markets.

Above all, I strive to be someone my clients can count on—someone who is always looking out for their best interests and helping them succeed in achieving their homeownership goals.

I can't thank Josh and his team enough. They were always just a phone call or text away and kept me updated through every stage of the process. They genuinely cared about finding the best option for our financial situation, and they made the entire experience feel personalized and comfortable.
