What we place here
The full range, for buying and for refinancing: conventional, FHA, VA, USDA, jumbo, physician, down payment assistance, bank statement, non-QM, DSCR and renovation loans.
Beyond those, the full range includes construction, manufactured housing, non-warrantable condos, ITIN, foreign national, bridge, HELOCs and reverse mortgages. If your situation is unusual, it is worth asking. See every loan option.
Help with the down payment
Most buyers who think they cannot afford a house can afford the monthly payment. What they do not have is the cash sitting in an account. Two routes run in parallel: your state’s housing finance agency runs assistance programs that are income-capped and change from year to year, and the Chenoa Fund, which is not income-capped and works in every state we lend in. Which one fits usually turns on income rather than credit. Both are covered here.
Who you will actually work with
A named, licensed loan officer — not a queue. You get their direct line and their email from the first conversation through to the closing table, and their NMLS number is on their profile so you can check them before you call rather than after. Find a loan officer.
