  • Our dedicated team is here to help you feel secure in your financing decisions

Our mission is to make financing the easiest part
of your Real Estate transaction

Whether it is your first home, your dream home or retirement home, we are all in. We are passionate about helping clients understand options and make the best decision for financing their home or investment property and achieve short and long-term goals.

A CPA, a long career in corporate finance and the last 20+ years as the president/owner of Signet Mortgage, Clay brings problem-solving, income tax and finance experience to every transaction. Our team consistently receives five-star reviews through Google and Facebook.

Recently, one of the most cherished comments we received from a client was “Clay has become family …”.
We are big enough to have access to all the leading conventional and reverse mortgage lenders – yet small enough to help you achieve your financial goals in real estate as if you were family.
