About me

Yay! You've found me!

I'm Austin, a loan officer here in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. My goal is to help people in my community achieve homeownership and make that process easy, clear and stress-free for everyone I work with.

Whether you're a first-time buyer, upgrading, or refinancing, I'm here to help you find the right loan that fits your goals and lifestyle. I believe in honest communication, quick follow-ups, and keeping things as smooth and enjoyable as possible from start to finish.

When I'm not helping people reach their homeownership goals, you can find me spending time with my dogs Maverick & Mango, hanging out with friends, and exploring new local spots in our area.

Let's find the right home loan for you

We have loan options to fit every situation, from down payment assistance programs for first-time homebuyers to government-sponsored programs for military families and rural residents or jumbo loans in high-cost markets.
