Richie Kopf
America’s #1 Retail Mortgage Lender
Hello! I’m Richie Kopf, a trusted local mortgage advisor and strategic partner to real estate professionals and clients across the Florida Panhandle and select coastal Alabama markets. I’m known for steady leadership in complex transactions, proactive communication and a hands-on approach that protects both the deal and the people involved. My work is backed by verified 5-star client reviews on Experience.com.
Known by many agents as the “Condo King,” I’ve built a reputation in the condo space, including warrantable, non-warrantable and condotel financing. I also deliver high-level strategy for VA, investor and Non-QM scenarios, including DSCR and bank statement loans.
For clients, I bring clarity and confidence through education, transparency and consistent milestone updates. With America’s #1 Retail Mortgage Lender, I pair local expertise with a powerful lending platform so buyers and investors can close with less stress, fewer surprises and more certainty.

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.
