I’ll be with you every step of the way
Hi, I’m Dolores. In 1995, I joined the mortgage industry with a desire to learn about home financing options so I could help people obtain the American dream and build wealth through homeownership. Nearly three decades later, I’ve done that and so much more – earning the Lake & Geauga Area Association of REALTORS® Affiliate of the Year award in 2016 & 2018 and the NAMB Broker of the Year Midwest award in 2023 for my exceptional service at the Cleveland, OH branch of America’s #1 Retail Mortgage Lender.
My ability to listen to a client’s goals and priorities and walk them through the mortgage process sets my service apart. I specialize in many home financing solutions to make your dreams a reality, including:
- VA loans
- FHA loans
- USDA loans
- Conventional loans
- Jumbo loans
- Rehab loans
- FHA 203(k) loans
- Refinance programs
- First-time homebuyer programs
Off the clock, I enjoy spending time with my family, friends, and grandkids, especially at summer concerts.

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.
