About Richard

Proudly serving clients across Rhode Island, Connecticut, Massachusetts and New Hampshire.

I understand that buying or refinancing a home is one of the most significant financial decisions my clients will make. That's why I'm committed to giving my team the knowledge, resources, and support they need to guide borrowers through the mortgage process with confidence and attention to every detail.

With extensive experience across all facets of mortgage lending, I can help my team navigate everything from first-time home purchases to refinancing and complex financing needs. My expertise includes Conventional, Jumbo, FHA, VA, USDA, and Renovation loans.

I stay current on financial and housing-market trends, mortgage guidelines, and state and federal regulations so I can serve as a trusted resource for my team and our clients. My goal is to ensure our clients receive more than just a loan—they receive informed guidance and the most competitive financing solution for their unique needs.

Rich made this experience amazing. There were times with others involved that their was miscommunication and false info and Rich continuously stayed on top of everything and explained everything to me every step of the way.
