Fort Worth, TX$25,000 in equity on day one
The builder’s in-house lender couldn’t read active-duty and reservist pay. We could — and secured full builder concessions.
Craig works side by side with DFW agents: fast pre-approvals, weekly updates, and a broker’s reach when a file gets complicated.
Income, assets and credit are reviewed before the letter goes out, so your offer is not built on a guess.
A weekly update to you and your buyer until clear to close — and a phone that gets answered.
As a broker Craig can move the file to a lender that fits it. Builder’s lender said no? Price capped too low? Send it over.
A Navy veteran who knows VA appraisals, Tidewater and second-tier entitlement keeps VA offers competitive.

“My client was working with a previous lender who could only qualify him to a certain purchase price. Craig was able to land him with a lender who could break through that barrier. If he says he got you… he got you.”
