About Gil

Hi, I’m Gil, and I’ve been helping individuals, families and investors with the financing of owner-occupied, second home and investment properties for 30 years. With a focus on personalized service and backed by the resources of America’s #1 Retail Mortgage Lender, I'm committed to finding the right mortgage solution for you.

I understand each mortgage is unique to your goals, circumstances, and priorities. That’s why I personalize the home loan process. Maybe a conventional mortgage will meet your requirements. Perhaps a jumbo loan is a better fit for your big dreams. Or you could qualify for programs like FHA, VA, and CCM Signature Series loans. Whether you’re purchasing, renovating, or refinancing, I offer a product for your plans.

My consideration for you doesn’t end after finding a mortgage. From pre-approval to closing and beyond, I’ll always answer your questions and make sure your home loan continues to be beneficial. I look forward to starting your home financing journey.

A homeowner with a child on his lap calculating whether to buy a new home or refinance his home loan

Owning a home is fun and fulfilling!

What’s not to love about having a space that is entirely yours? You can paint your bathroom fuchsia, have hardwood in the master, put up a wild Mosaic in the kitchen, install a smart thermostat, you name it. After all, it’s your home!

Equally enjoyable are the other personal and financial advantages of being a homeowner: security and stability, equity and wealth building, and more! I’m here to help you get the most from your home financing — whether you’re buying your first home, moving up or downsizing to match your lifestyle, or refinancing your current mortgage.

Helping your home financing process go smoothly.
