Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a mortgage broker and a bank?

A bank offers only its own loan products. As a mortgage broker, William can compare programs from multiple wholesale lenders, so you can see more than one option for rate, fees and terms before you choose. Availability depends on your situation and lender guidelines.

Why work with a loan officer who is also a Realtor?

One person can help you plan the financing and the home search together, so your price range, offer and closing timeline stay in sync. You are always free to choose your own real estate agent and lender.

Which areas do you serve?

William helps buyers and homeowners across Central Florida, including Orlando, Winter Garden, Windermere, Clermont, Kissimmee, Lake County and Polk County. See <a href="/page/mortgage-broker-orlando-fl">Areas We Serve</a> for the full list. Lending in other states depends on licensing.

What loan programs do you offer?

Options include conventional, FHA, VA, USDA, jumbo, DSCR and bank statement loans, plus refinance and reverse mortgage programs. Which ones fit you depends on your credit, income, down payment and the property. A short conversation is the fastest way to narrow it down.

How much do I need for a down payment?

It depends on the program. Some loans allow a low down payment and eligible VA and USDA borrowers may qualify with none, while others require more. Down payment assistance may also be available in Florida. All programs are subject to eligibility and lender approval.

Can I buy a home if I am self-employed?

Yes, in many cases. Along with standard documentation, some lenders offer bank statement loans that look at deposits instead of tax returns, and DSCR loans for investment properties that look at rental income. Terms and requirements vary by lender.

Do you help with vacation homes and investment properties?

Yes. Second home and investment property financing is common in areas like Kissimmee, Davenport, Celebration and ChampionsGate. Requirements for these loans differ from a primary residence, so we review your plans for the property up front.

How do I get started?

Start with a quick call or the online application. William will review your goals, explain which programs may fit and tell you which documents to gather. You can <a href="/contact-us">contact William here</a>.

Does it cost anything to talk with you?

No. Asking questions and reviewing your options is free and does not commit you to anything. If you move forward, your Loan Estimate shows the rate, fees and closing costs in writing so you can compare before you decide.

Who is the lender behind the loan?

William is a licensed loan officer with NEXA Mortgage, a mortgage broker. Your loan is funded by the wholesale lender selected for your file, and that lender is named on your loan documents. This is not a commitment to lend; all loans are subject to credit approval.
