Being in the mortgage industry means I get to help others achieve the dream of homeownership. There's nothing I love more than finding a better rate than our competitors, providing my client with the right loan and using our industry-leading technology to help them close quickly. I especially enjoy my role because of the people that I get to work with. We get to make serious impacts on people's lives, whether it be by saving them money or allowing them to buy an investment home to finalize their financial goals and plans that they have worked so hard to achieve. While both of those are great reasons to be in the industry, there is nothing more rewarding then seeing a homebuyer who was stressed and anxious about the purchase of a home, being handed the keys at closing. In addition, I take considerable pride adhering to our core values, especially when it comes to bias to action. This allows me to try and stay ahead of any potential issues that arise during the loan process. Everything that is vetted and verified upfront is one less issue that could affect the ability of my borrower to obtain this home.
