I’ll be with you every step of the way

Hi, I’m Hunter! I’ve dedicated 20 years to refining the mortgage industry. As a consistently top-performing loan advisor, I’ve closed over $1.9 billion in purchase and refinance loans over the past 9 years, while ranking among the nation’s top 150 advisors.

Success for my team is rooted in caring relationships among team members, extended to clients and business partners. I approach my daily work with a steadfast belief: My team members should envision a better life working alongside me, my business partners should see enhanced success through partnership, and my clients must believe that choosing us as their lender opens doors to greater homeownership.

My team sets itself apart by deeply understanding clients’ needs upfront, proactively underwriting loans, and customizing pre-approval letters for each offer. We provide transparent, regular updates to ensure a positive homebuying experience.

I’m honored to be part of America’s #1 Retail Mortgage Lender, where our dedication to client success sets us apart.

  • To determine how much home you can afford, you’ll want to assess your financial situation. This includes your income, expenses, and debt-to-income ratio, to ensure your mortgage fits comfortably within your budget. A general guideline is to spend no more than 28% of your gross monthly income on housing costs and 36% on total debt.

  • A good credit score typically starts at 620 for conventional loans, while FHA and VA loans may accept scores as low as 500, though higher scores offer better terms. A strong credit score can help you secure lower interest rates, saving you significant money over the life of a home loan.

  • A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) is a revolving line of credit that allows homeowners to borrow against the equity in their home. HELOCs function like a credit card, giving access to funds up to a set limit, which can be used for expenses like renovations or debt consolidation. You only pay interest on the amount you borrow, and the repayment terms typically include a draw period followed by a repayment period.
