  I'm Gerard W. Martinez-Preiti, a mortgage broker with over 20 years of experience in the industry. My previous work as a wealth advisor gives me a strong understanding of how economic trends affect both home and investment properties. I work with more than 150 lenders, which means I can find the best financing options for your needs, whether you're looking at residential, investment, or commercial loans.I’m committed to making the mortgage process as smooth and stress-free as possible. One way I do this is by starting with a soft credit check. This won't affect your credit score but allows us to see if there’s anything we need to address before moving forward. If everything looks good, we’ll proceed with a full credit check when you’re ready to apply.Another key advantage of working with me is that I handle all the processing in-house. If we need to change the loan program or lender during the process, we can do so without pulling your credit again or collecting new documents. This flexibility ensures we stay on track with your closing timeline. With a retail lender, you might have to start over, which could risk losing the home you want.My goal is to help you avoid any last-minute issues and get your loan closed on time. When you work with me, you get access to a wide range of options, expert advice, and a commitment to finding the best solution for you.
