Your biggest decision is my biggest passion

Hi, I’m Lerea. After seven years in the mortgage industry, I know a thing or two about financing dream homes. Without the right person by your side, the process can seem complicated and confusing. As part of our Pueblo, CO branch at America’s #1 Retail Mortgage Lender, I’m here to guide you through it with personalized advice.

Home loans are unique to a client’s goals and circumstances. 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, USDA, or VA. Whether you’re buying, renovating, or refinancing, we’ll make a plan for you.

From pre-approval to closing and beyond, I promise to communicate clearly and help you accomplish your homeownership dreams.

While I’m from Pueblo, Colorado, I believe in a world of possibilities. I’m proud of my roots and am ready to serve you across the country. Wherever you decide to call home, I look forward to helping.
