I’ll be with you every step of the way

Hi, I’m Kirk, and I’m dedicated to guiding you through your homeownership journey. I began working in the home financing industry as a loan officer in 1998, fostering relationships with my clients from application and beyond. Currently, I serve our branches in business development recruiting and partnerships out of our Bethlehem, PA office, as well as an advocate for reverse mortgages.

I understand each mortgage is unique to your goals, circumstances, and priorities. That’s why I personalize the home loan process. Maybe a conventional mortgage will meet your requirements. Perhaps a jumbo loan is a better fit for your big dreams. Or you could qualify for programs like FHA, USDA, or VA. Whether you’re purchasing, renovating, or refinancing, America’s #1 Retail Mortgage Lender offers a product for your plans.

Questions about mortgages, partnerships, or the industry? Please reach out! I’m always open to conversation and coffee.

Frequently asked questions

  • Refinancing costs typically range from 2% to 6% of the loan amount and include fees such as appraisal, title insurance, and closing costs. Factors like your loan type, location, and credit score can significantly impact these expenses. Our team can help to provide strategies that can help minimize costs.

  • 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.

  • To calculate your mortgage payments, start with your loan amount, interest rate, and loan term. Your payment will depend on the interest charged over time and the repayment schedule. You can use a monthly mortgage payment calculator or connect with us to learn more.
