- How I Help

Three ways people usually find me.

Everyone is different, but almost everyone starts in one of these places. Find yours and I’ll tell you what to expect.

01
First home

I’m buying my first home.

I’ll explain what lenders review, what your payment includes, and how to prepare for an application. We can compare conventional, FHA, VA, and other available options.

02
Next home

I’m planning my next move.

Buying and selling at the same time brings timing and financing questions. I’ll help you consider your equity, payment, and options before you commit.

03
Refinance

I want to know if refinancing makes sense.

Compare the closing costs, monthly payment, loan term, and break-even point. I’ll help you evaluate the tradeoffs, including cash-out options when appropriate.

- About Me

I'd rather over-explain than let you sign something you don't understand.

I’ve been a licensed mortgage broker since 2001, with experience spanning underwriting and ownership. I hold the Certified Mortgage Consultant® (CMC®) designation and bring a Marine Corps veteran’s discipline and commitment to straight answers to my work.

I help first-time buyers, homeowners, and investors across Oregon, Washington, and Idaho, including clients with self-employed income, RSUs, and more complex financing needs.

Associated Mortgage Brokers is a privately owned Portland firm founded in 1989. My approach combines personal guidance with access to multiple lenders and residential loan programs.
