About Scott
Scott spent thirty years in law enforcement before he ever wrote a mortgage. Twenty-seven of those years were in Park Forest, Illinois, and three were with the Lake County Coroner's Office in Indiana. He started originating in April of 2021.
He works Lake and Porter counties. His volume is an even split between FHA and conventional, and the piece he is known for is down payment assistance. The question he hears most is which DPA program a buyer qualifies for, and his approach is to open the file first and match the borrower to a program once he can actually see the numbers rather than guessing on a phone call.
Scott was born in Gary and has lived in the region most of his life, with a fifteen-year stretch in Illinois. He has been a volleyball official and coach for thirty years and is a licensed NCAA volleyball official.
The military and law enforcement background shows up in how he handles a file. He is detail oriented to a degree that borrowers notice, which is generally what you want from the person assembling your loan.
