I’ll be with you every step of the way
Hello! My name is Joel. I joined America’s #1 Retail Mortgage Lender because a close friend of mine helped me see how much I can help others through home financing. For the last 10 years, I owned or operated franchise restaurants in the Reno, NV area.
My passion is being attentive and providing top-notch customer service to everyone. I love to help people and be a bright light in their day. For some, purchasing a home is one of the biggest financial decisions they’ll make. With my communication and customer service skills, you’ll feel at ease every step of the way.
A little about me: I grew up in the Carson City area and am the son of a general contractor. My wife and I got married in 2023 and are parents to four fur babies – one dog and three cats. When I’m not working, you’ll find me at the bowling alley or on the golf course.

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.
