I’ll be with you every step of the way
Hello, I’m Jen Orr! After working for 10 years in hospitality and another 10 in senior living, I was looking for a career that I could retire in. That’s how I found home financing. Now, as a loan officer with America’s #1 Retail Mortgage Lender, I’m here to help you along your home financing journey, using compassion and personal guidance to make the process as easy and stress-free as possible.
When you work with me, I’ll take the time to listen and understand your goals. If you’re a first-time homebuyer, I’ll break down each part of the process and answer all your questions. If this isn’t your first mortgage, we’ll look at new products and talk through how options like conventional, FHA, VA or a cash-out refinance can support your homeownership plans.
Outside of work, I enjoy watching my son play travel basketball and curling up on the couch with my shih tzu puppy, named CC.

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.
-
Refinance costs vary, but typically range from 2% to 6% of your loan amount. For example, refinancing a $300,000 mortgage may cost $6,000–$18,000. Costs include appraisal, title and lender fees. A CCM loan officer can help calculate your break-even point and long-term savings.
-
A cash-out refinance lets you replace your current mortgage with a new one for more than you owe — taking the difference in cash. Use it for renovations, debt consolidation, tuition, or unexpected expenses by tapping into your home’s equity.
-
Refinancing makes sense when you can lower your interest rate, shorten your loan term, switch to a fixed rate or access equity for cash. If your current mortgage no longer fits your financial goals, it may be time to refinance.
-
To refinance, meet with a CCM loan officer, review your credit, apply for your new loan and submit required documents. After approval, you’ll schedule a closing and start fresh with your new mortgage terms and payment structure.
-
You can typically refinance after six months, but timing depends on loan type, lender and your financial situation. A CCM loan officer can help determine if now’s the right time based on your equity, credit and current interest rates.
