FAQ

Questions, answered.

Can I really apply with AI?

Yes. Our online application uses AI to guide you through each question, gather what lenders need, and get your file ready to shop. You can stop and finish later, and a licensed loan officer reviews everything. Prefer a person? Call or text (480) 526-4505.

What does it mean that you shop 220+ lenders?

We are an independent mortgage broker powered by Loan Factory. Instead of offering one bank's pricing, we compare your loan across 220+ wholesale lenders so you can see your options side by side and choose.

Can I refinance with these programs, or only buy?

Every program we offer is available for both purchases and refinances, including Conventional, FHA, VA, USDA, DSCR, Non-QM, Reverse, and more.

How does the $2,000 Best Price Guarantee work?

If you close with another lender at a lower combination of interest rate, fees, and monthly mortgage insurance on an identical loan, we send you a $2,000 check. It applies to loan amounts of $200,000 or more, is not available in Washington, and other conditions apply. See the full terms on our Best Price Guarantee page.

Jerry Kindig is personally licensed in 19 states: Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Washington.

What is the free Home Equity Report?

It is a free report on your home's estimated value and equity. When you sign up, you can also opt in to rate alerts so we can let you know when refinancing may make sense.
