About Barry

As a Producing Branch Manager with a Specialty in Renovation and Construction Loans, I'm a uniquely qualified Mortgage Professional with 18 years of Experience, historically ranked in the Top 1% of Mortgage Originators in America.

I excel at management, coaching my team to grow their business while servicing referral partners and clients to get the right mortgage. I provide sales assistance, marketing support, coaching, technology, and dedicated underwriters and processors.

As a Loan Originator, I help clients with financing needs up to $30 million, offering traditional and specialty mortgages for doctors, self-employed, investors, foreign buyers, and high net worth clients. I pride myself on amazing customer service and extensive knowledge for purchases and refinances of all property types.

My specialty is Purchase, Renovation, and Construction Loans. My team is the most experienced in the industry, efficiently guiding clients through FHA 203K, Fannie Mae HomeStyle, Freddie Mac Choice, and VA Renovation Loans for purchasing fixers or renovating existing homes, as well as Construction loans for building new homes. These products offer low down payments, as little as 3.5% or even 100% financing for Veterans.

Homeowners planning renovations for their home

Make any home your dream home

Tired of leaving open houses without finding “the one?” With a renovation loan, you can bring your ideas of the perfect home to life!

Here’s how:

  • Finance the costs of buying and upgrading a home with one loan, so you can purchase an imperfect but good (and probably less expensive) house and add your personal touch.
  • Refinance the cost of home improvements to get the benefits of moving without the packing and unpacking, figuring out new utilities…
    you know the hassle.
