Mortgage Banker

Utilizing over a decade of diverse real estate experience, I can provide answers and solutions to any situation my clients may face. While spending ten years in Chicago, I owned and operated various companies that were able to capitalize on the real estate market. I bought and sold hundreds of residential and commercial properties, purchased mortgages, ran a full service brokerage firm, ran a construction company that converted condos and built new construction homes, as well as other ventures that complemented my core business.

For the first two years in St. Louis, I was the head of a loan department at a national real estate investment company. Servicing a $36 million portfolio has given me invaluable lessons on the proper way to create a loan and the pitfalls that are found when things are not done properly. All these experiences and partnering with a prestigious company like Paramount Mortgage, have created a perfect blend of real world experience and industry knowledge.

I moved to St. Louis in 2007 with my wife Abby (a native) and our son Tyler. We are now joined by a daughter, Charley, and a second son, Austin. My extensive involvement with the local communities, has confirmed that I firmly believe that giving back (with time, money and knowledge) has shaped me into the person I am today. When my commitments to all the committees/foundations/charities are complete, I spend all remaining time with my family, friends and playing racquetball.

I am committed to making a charitable donation every time I close a loan for my clients. I created the Charitable Promises initiative at the beginning of 2010, which encourages my clients to actually pick the charity that will benefit from their home mortgage completion. With the multitude of problems in the world (some hitting closer to home than others), Charitable Promises allows everyone to be part of the solution. This initiative has already reached many local and national charities.

Most importantly, I know that all the experience in the world is absolutely worthless without the basic ability to listen to clients and follow through with their wishes. My pledge to all past, current and future clients is to:

• Provide professional service.
• Always be accessible and responsive.
• Offer a no hassle experience.
• Keep informed on industry updates.
