Ed Currie

Ed began assisting client with mortgage financing in 1994 during one of the slowest mortgage markets in the last 25 years. The slow market allowed Ed to develop his client-centric philosophy and drive to make the process as stress-free as possible.

Since that time, Ed has assisted over 3000 clients with total loan production exceeding $1 Billion and has been featured in the mortgage industry's leading periodicals as a top loan originator and has also consistently made the industry's Top 200 List of the top loan originators in the United States. Most recently, Ed ranked #35 in the Top Dollar Volume category.

Ed's approach is simple - do what's best for the client. To achieve this, Ed has an in depth consultation with the client to assess the most suitable loan program, strategy, and cost structure. This consultation also allows Ed to structure the loan in a way to get the client the lowest possible rate and fees including "no cost" financing options.

Having successful loan process is also important. Ed's years of experience allows him to advise clients on how to structure the loan application to result in the quickest and easiest loan approval. This advice consistently results in a 99%+ credit approval rate.

Experience matters. Although every loan is different, with over 3000 successful loan transaction, Ed has the experience to guide clients through a very confusing and stressful process. By sharing his experience and knowledge of the process, Ed attempts to make the process as simplified and stress-free as possible.

Ed's loans are all handled by his team.  Loan origination, loan processing, and loan closing are all done with Ed's team in the same office.  This allows Ed to have control over the many aspects of the loan process.  It also allows all of the team members to be able to comminicate daily on each client's loan.
