About Alexander
Alexander came into mortgage lending in 2025 from real estate development, where he managed budgets and strategic planning, and from consulting work with senior professionals at financial firms across Chicago. The combination of real estate and finance made the move into origination a short step rather than a career change.
He works Lake County, Hammond, East Chicago and Gary. Most of his files are first-time buyers, down payment assistance, and DSCR loans for investors.
Two situations bring out his best work. The first is the first-time buyer with good credit and a steady job who simply has not been able to save the down payment. The second is the self-employed investor who has capital but gets pushback from traditional lenders because they make smart tax decisions, which is where the DSCR programs earn their keep.
The question he hears most is how much house someone can afford. His answer is that getting approved and being comfortable with the payment are two different things, and he would rather look at the whole picture and find a loan that fits the budget and the longer plan.
He holds a Bachelor of Science in Public Affairs from Indiana University Bloomington, with a concentration in nonprofit, public and organizational management.
