About Alex

Hi, I’m Alex, and I’m more than just a mortgage advisor—I’m a mortgage expert. My background in mortgage underwriting gives me deep insight into financing options, allowing me to offer honest advice on a wide range of loans. As a Vice President of Residential Lending, I guide clients from first-time homebuyers to those purchasing vacation homes or investment properties, as well as refinancing any type of residential mortgage across the country.

Originally from Ukraine, my family and I moved to Chicago when I was 10. This city has become a central part of my life. I graduated from Loyola University and never miss cheering on the Bulls. I’m proud to offer top-notch service in both English and Russian, ensuring the best experience for my clients in Chicago, IL and beyond. I look forward to helping you achieve your home financing goals with America’s #1 Retail Mortgage Lender.

Get $6,500 in down payment assistance

We want to put homeownership within your reach. CCM Community Promise can provide $6,500 in down payment assistance if you live in a qualifying neighborhood in Chicago, Detroit, and Philadelphia.

You must live in an eligible census tract in these communities at the time you apply for your home loan, but you can purchase a home anywhere in the United States.

Start your pathway to homeownership. Get in touch to see if you're eligible.

Turn years from now into today

 

Saving for a down payment can be a challenge, we get that. With our variety of down payment assistance (DPA) programs for conventional and FHA loans, you could buy a home with little or no cash.

For most of these programs, one buyer must be a first-time homebuyer, and homebuyer education and other requirements may apply.

We make home happen. Contact me today to see which option is best for you.
