Homestead Financial Mortgage

Homestead Financial Mortgage has been in business since 1998. Managing Partners Jayson Hardie, Greg Aftayev, and Andros Ioakimides oversee the day-to-day operations.

For years, we were a sub-prime lender focusing on the refinance market. In 2012, we evolved into a fully delegated mortgage banker. We switched our primary focus to purchase business – generated from our referral-based relationships. We've built an entire marketing department unheard of for a company our size. It's dedicated to helping our loan officers and realtor partners develop their businesses. Our partners are loyal and refer their buyers to us. They know we'll treat their clients with care and close on time.

It's our goal to add value to our loan officers, staff, clients, Realtors, and business partners. Our mission statement is: "Making lives better, one home at a time."

Additional Culture Details

At Homestead, you’ll get the help you need and the independence you signed up for. Many lenders won’t take the time to train or support loan officers. It’s a sink or swim attitude. We don’t feel that way. We’re willing to invest in our staff. We have a proven track record of helping loan officers grow their customer base and referral network. We do that by creating unique branded content for each loan officer.

Mindset and results matter. That's why we work hard to ensure that excitement is high and anxiety is low during the mortgage process. We share that sentiment with our staff, who pass it on to their clients and referral partners.

Values

Our Values
At Homestead, the worth of our business isn’t solely based on profit. And our loan officers’ value isn’t just a reflection of their pipeline. To all of our staff, we stress the importance to place life before job – but understand the importance of their position and how a strong financial life results from high production.

When it comes to our client's mortgage - it isn't just about the numbers. We understand that behind every loan is a person or a family. Our clients are just like us, they sit in traffic, and have great days and bad days. They go to family functions they’d rather avoid. They have life goals and financial goals. And share them . . . with us. Because – we’ve become their friends and they trust us.
