Home: A Priceless Asset and Legacy Builder
A home is one of your most valuable financial assets. More importantly, a home is a place that holds priceless memories, family bonds, and the joy of friendship. Your home can also be a legacy wealth builder if you opt to pass it through to your family.
Navigating Home Financing for a Better Future
Financing a home is one of the most significant financial decisions you will make in your life. You are legally bound to make payments each and every month for up to 30 years. This is not something you should do without sound advice and someone who understands and is willing to discuss your goals with you and make sure you are getting the best possible mortgage for your situation.
When you are looking for a home mortgage, you want a different type of mortgage company. That is what you get when you work with Amethyst Mortgage.
Our goals are different than most mortgage companies — our core values include:
- Providing you with honest advice
- Being as transparent as possible
- Holding every member of our team accountable to you
- Being as accessible to our clients as possible
When you work with the team at Amethyst Mortgage, you are working with a team of experienced professionals who treat our clients with care, and compassion, and as individuals. We know home buying and refinancing decisions are personal. We take great pride in treating every single client as an individual, and we work towards finding the right program to meet your needs — the needs of today and tomorrow. Our goal is singular: We do not need to be the biggest mortgage brokerage, instead, we strive to be the best at what we do.
