I Quit!

By
Mortgage and Lending

Well... I am no longer in the mortgage business.

I decided to get into this business almost 3 years ago now. When I got into this business I had one general goal in mind. I wanted to capitalize on my marketing and IT experience and build the most popular mortgage-related website in the Tucson area. I wanted to be #1 in the search results and the "go-to guy" for anyone searching for "Tucson Mortgages" or "Refinance in Tucson".

I accomplished that goal.

Unfortunately, the modest amount of market-share / success that I thought would go hand in hand with my marketing goals fell seemingly well off target.

... Of course the fact that there are only two or three people left in the general Tucson area that can either afford or qualify to buy a home might have something to do with it as well.

"Times is tough".

With that said, I will be officially turning my mortgage site over to my former (more experienced) "loan partner" Francine Martineau at Nova Home Loans. If you have any loan questions from here on out, please contact Francine Martineau at (520)358-9382!

Good luck to all!

You aren't the first to leave and won't be the last. It is sad to see people leave, but I am seeing the number being unemployed in the regular sector almost equals the number in the real estate business.

Maybe in 5 years when the market rebounds you can come back and use your experience to try again.
