Eric has helped thousands of people buy homes, build wealth, and feel confident about one of life's biggest financial decisions. Since entering the mortgage industry in 2015, he's closed over $1 billion in home loans and earned a reputation for solving complex financing scenarios with clarity, speed, and care. He also has extensive experience helping veterans use VA IRRRLs to reduce their monthly payments quickly with minimal documentation. Eric's approach is deeply shaped by the customer service philosophy in Raving Fans by Ken Blanchard--a book he credits as a major influence in his career. He believes every client deserves more than a smooth transaction--they deserve a standout experience that's personal, consistent, and always better than expected. That mindset drives everything he does at LendFriend, from how his team communicates to how they show up when things get complicated. While Eric works with a wide range of homebuyers and homeowners, he has deep expertise in helping clients who fall outside the traditional lending box--self-employed borrowers, real estate investors, crypto holders, and others with unique financial profiles. He specializes in VA, Conventional, and Jumbo loans, as well as Non-QM solutions like bank statement, DSCR, and asset depletion programs. Whether you're buying your first home or financing your fifth, Eric brings the same thoughtful, personalized approach to every deal. He leads the LendFriend team with a focus on transparency, creativity, and making sure every client walks away feeling like they had someone in their corner from day one.

Helping people make one of the biggest financial decisions of their lives, and knowing I played a small part in that, is what keeps me going. I've been in the mortgage world since 2001, and I still get fired up about helping folks navigate the loan process with clarity and confidence. Whether it's a first-time buyer or a seasoned homeowner, I make sure they understand every step and feel supported the whole way through. I specialize in VA loans, but I also dig deep into specialty programs to find the best fit for each client. I'm big on communication. There's no such thing as "too many updates" when your loan is in motion. I send weekly check-ins, respond quickly to questions, and advocate hard to get loans approved smoothly. Clients often tell me they appreciate how easy I make the process feel. That's the goal: less stress, more clarity, and a loan that fits your life. Outside of work, I'm all about family, friends, and our two golden retrievers, Izzy and Zusi. I'm also a soccer dad. Nothing beats watching my son play.
