Reviews
Real stories from buyers, sellers and homeowners who closed with Everett.
I thought a mortgage would be confusing. Everett walked me through every number and I got the keys to my first home in 24 days.
We needed to buy before we sold. Everett found a bridge loan that worked and never let us feel stuck. Our son loves the new yard.
Refinancing at our age felt risky. Everett explained every option, cut our payment by $412 a month and answered every call.
As a veteran I was worried about the paperwork. Everett handled the VA loan from start to finish and we closed on time.
I got pre-approved the same afternoon, which helped my offer win. Honest advice and no pressure at any point.
We used our equity to finish the kitchen without selling. Everett laid out the costs clearly and the process was smooth.
FAQ
The things buyers ask me most, in plain English. Still unsure? Just ask.
Less than most people think. Conventional loans start at 3% down, FHA loans at 3.5%, and VA and USDA loans can be 0% down if you qualify. Putting down 20% avoids mortgage insurance, but it is not required.
Usually the same day. Send me your income and ID details and I will review them within a few hours. A pre-approval letter makes your offer stronger, so it is worth doing before you tour.
Getting a rate estimate uses a soft check that does not affect your score. A full pre-approval needs a hard inquiry, and several mortgage inquiries within a short window count as one.
Many conventional loans start around 620, and FHA loans can work with scores in the high 500s. Every situation is different, so I will tell you honestly where you stand and what would help.
It can be, if the new payment saves you enough to cover the closing costs within a reasonable time. I will show you the break-even point before you decide, so you only refinance when the numbers make sense.
There is no fee to talk, get a pre-approval or compare options. Any lender and closing costs are listed on your Loan Estimate, and I walk through every line of it with you.
