Hi All, I am new to blogging all together and would appreciate some feedback! I love the Active Rain platform and wanted to provide some background on myself as a starting point. I have been in real estate, home renovations, and financing for over 15 years. I started as a Realtor with Coldwell Banker in 1994, and at the same time bought, sold and renovated 5 homes. In 2000 I was invited to become a Mortgage Advisor and Mortgage Financing Trainer for the Coldwell Banker Real Estate Regional Headquarters. In 2006 I accepted an opportunity with Wells Fargo and the Houlihan Lawrence Real Estate Company. In 2009 after extensive research to find the lender with the best service record, accepted a Senior Loan Officer position with Mortgage Master, Inc. Mortgage Master has a unique platform as a direct lender, a mortgage banker and a mortgage broker. This combination assures borrowers the guaranteed lowest rates and the advantage of a wide range of loan options, Mortgage Master, Inc is the #1 privately held lender in the country with in-house, local processing.
