My Education-First Process: Understanding Before Signing
Step 1: Discovery & Education (30-45 minutes) We discuss your goals, timeline, and I explain how different loan programs build wealth differently. You’ll understand WHY we’re choosing specific options.
Step 2: Lender Shopping (24-48 hours) I present your scenario to multiple lenders from my network of 120+, comparing not just rates but terms, fees, and execution ability.
Step 3: Application & Strategy (Same day) Once you choose the best option, we complete your application and I explain the entire timeline, what to expect, and how to prepare.
Step 4: Processing & Communication (14-21 days) I handle all lender communication and keep you informed of progress. My experience means I can anticipate and solve problems before they delay your closing.
Step 5: Closing & Beyond (30 days average) I attend your closing to ensure everything goes smoothly, and I remain available for questions about your mortgage long after closing.

“Working with John was nothing short of AMAZING! He went to bat for me and stayed on top of things to ensure the purchase of my home went as smoothly as possible.”

“John was incredible to work with. He worked extremely hard for us as we prepared to purchase our first home and we were able to close quickly and secure the deal. John’s communication and willingness to communicate allowed us to purchase our dream home. John put in an exceptional amount of time and care into our mortgage preparation. We are so grateful to have worked with him and would encourage anyone to work with John at Edge Home Finance for their mortgage needs!”
