Buying a Home Shouldn't Feel This Confusing.
Between conflicting advice online, lenders who treat you like a file number, and loan products you didn't even know existed — it's easy to feel lost. Most borrowers settle for whatever their bank offers because they don't know there's a better way.

Read MoreFrequently Asked Questions
Have questions? I have answers. And if you don't see yours here, just ask.
What's the difference between a mortgage broker and a bank?
A bank can only offer you their own loan products. As a mortgage broker, I have access to 150+ lending partners — which means I can shop across multiple lenders to find the best rate, terms, and loan program for your specific situation. Think of me as your personal loan shopper.
How much do your services cost?
In most cases, my compensation is paid by the lender — so there's no direct cost to you. When there are borrower-paid fees, I'll disclose everything upfront before you commit to anything. Transparency is a core part of how I do business.
Do I need perfect credit to get a loan?
Absolutely not. While a higher credit score can help you get a lower rate, there are loan programs available for credit scores as low as 500. I specialize in finding the right fit regardless of where your score is today — and I can help you improve it over time.
Can you help with investment property loans?
Yes! I offer DSCR loans that qualify based on the property's rental income rather than your personal income. This is ideal for investors building a portfolio. I also handle conventional investment loans, bridge loans, and fix-and-flip financing.
How long does the mortgage process take?
Most loans close in 21-30 days from application. Some can close faster depending on the loan type and how quickly documentation is provided. I keep you updated at every step so there are never any surprises.
Do you work with clients outside California?
Absolutely. I'm personally licensed in California, Florida, and Texas, and my company — United American Mortgage — is licensed in 31 states. If you're in one of those states, I'll guide you through the entire process and connect you with the right loan through our team. Reach out and I'll let you know exactly how we can help in your state.
What should I bring to my first consultation?
Nothing! Our first conversation is casual and pressure-free. I'll ask about your goals and situation, then guide you on what documentation we'll need when you're ready to move forward. Typically that includes pay stubs, tax returns, bank statements, and ID.
