Nestled at the foot of Pikes Peak is the burgeoning community of Colorado Springs. With its beautiful and varied scenery, in addition to all the available year around activities, we have become one of the fastest growing areas in the country. Like so many other states, we also have a lack of available housing.
I was born and raised in the Springs. With my 45 years of experience in the Real Estate and Mortgage industry, I can offer my knowledge and expertise to assist you. Whether it is financing your new home purchase or refinancing your current residence to lower your payments, remodeling and updating your home, or consolidating your current obligations, I can guide you through the competitive mortgage loan environment.
At 719 Lending, we can handle your financing needs for owner-occupied as well as investment properties. We are a brokerage with access to several excellent investors to accommodate your most ardent needs.
As a married father and grandfather with 6 children and 13 grandchildren, I appreciate the value of home life and the memories created there. I would be most honored to assist you with your financing needs.
