My Commitment To You
When my daughter was born in 2006, I realized I needed life insurance. As I explored my options, I spoke with three different agents—each one focused on selling me their policy rather than truly understanding my needs. It was frustrating to realize they were more interested in making a sale than in helping me make the right choice.
That experience shaped my commitment to always put your best interests first. I take the time to understand your unique situation, using my knowledge of the mortgage industry and my personal experience as a homeowner to help you make informed decisions for your family.
There have been many times when I have advised clients not to refinance if it wasn’t in their best interest, especially if I am helping them navigate their divorce and they have a rate well below the current market. I’m a consumer too and I believe in providing the same honest guidance to my clients that I would want for my family.
My philosophy is simple: do good things for people and they will return. I hope you’ll think of me when you need trusted advice on your home financing.
