Loan Programs

Every path to homeownership
has a place here.

From your first key to your next chapter, I offer a full range of loan programs tailored to South Carolina's unique market.

Purchase Loans

Buying your first home on the Grand Strand? I'll walk you through every step — from pre-approval to closing — with clear guidance and competitive rates.

  • Conventional & FHA
  • VA & USDA Loans
  • Down payment assistance

Refinance

Rate dropped? Your home gained value? Refinancing could lower your payment, shorten your term, or unlock the equity you've built over the years.

  • Rate & term refinance
  • Cash-out options
  • Break-even analysis

First-Time Buyers

The home-buying process doesn't have to feel overwhelming. I specialize in guiding first-time buyers with patience, transparency, and programs designed for you.

  • Low down payment options
  • MySafe Homebuyer Program
  • Education & counseling

Jumbo Loans

Luxury homes along the coast often require jumbo financing. I work with sophisticated borrowers who expect — and deserve — a higher standard of service.

  • Non-QM options available
  • Waterfront & vacation homes
  • Flexible documentation

Construction Loans

Building your dream home? I offer construction-to-permanent loans that simplify the process — one close, one set of closing costs, no double moving.

  • One-time close options
  • Draw schedule management
  • Builder coordination

Veterans & Military

As a military-friendly lender, I understand the unique needs of veterans and active-duty service members. No VA funding fee options and streamlined processing.

  • VA loan expertise
  • No down payment required
  • Fast turn times
