FORT WORTH · TARRANT COUNTY 

MORTGAGE BROKER IN
FORT WORTH, TX.

Local hands. National lender shelf.

I'm based in DFW and I run loans across Fort Worth every week — TCU-area starter homes, Near Southside duplexes, new builds out toward Alliance and Keller, and investor BRRRR files all the way out to Aledo. 140+ lenders, 400+ products, priced with Tarrant County's real tax burden baked in.

The Fort Worth file

FORT WORTH BUYERS don't fit one box.

Fort Worth isn't one market — it's a dozen. The buyer scraping together a 3.5% down payment for a bungalow in Fairmount is running a different file than the investor stacking duplexes in Polytechnic Heights, who's running a different file than the dentist buying new construction in Tanglewood. Same lender shelf doesn't fit all three.

That's the whole reason I work as a broker instead of an in-house bank LO. I shop 140+ lenders so the Fairmount buyer gets FHA at 3.5% down, the investor gets DSCR with LLC vesting, and the dentist gets a jumbo with a low PMI doctor program. Three buyers, three lenders, one broker.

One Tarrant County thing I always flag: property taxes here run ~2.2-2.5% of value in most ISDs, and that escrowed line adds real weight to your full monthly payment. I always quote the number with taxes and insurance baked in — never the bare P&I — so what you see on the pre-approval is what you pay.

FAQ

FORT WORTH, ANSWERED.

Yes. I'm based in DFW and run loans across Fort Worth and Tarrant County every week — from TCU and Near Southside to Alliance, Keller, and the western edge toward Aledo.

Everything. Conventional, FHA, VA, USDA, jumbo, plus the Non-QM stack — bank statement, DSCR, ITIN, 1099-only, P&L, foreign national. 140+ lenders, 400+ products.

Texas property taxes are high relative to most states, and Tarrant County is no exception. I always price your loan with the real, escrowed full monthly payment — not a teaser P&I — so the number on day one is the number you actually pay.

Yes. Most of my first-time Fort Worth buyers close with 3-5% down using FHA or conventional, and many qualify for Texas-specific down payment assistance through TSAHC or TDHCA. We map your number before you sign anything.

All the time. Fort Worth has a huge self-employed population — service businesses, oil-and-gas pros, real estate, restaurants. Bank statement loans are built for exactly this file.
