Community and public service have been my passions since a young age. I was fortunate enough to attend Boston College High School, where our motto of "Men for Others" has been a major influence in my personal and professional life. After graduating from Boston College in 1994, I worked in the public sector for 8 years. I entered the mortgage lending industry in 2002. I make a difference in the lives of individuals and couples on a one-to-one basis.
I understand that purchasing a home can be one of the more stressful life events that you may experience. Therefore, I make time to educate you about the process and understand the difference between a pre-approval and your comfort level with a monthly payment/affordability. I will keep you updated throughout the process with my "Doug Hug" calls every Monday and Friday to relay important information while your loan is being processed. Education and communication are two key factors in your dream to home ownership.
My goal on each and every transaction is for a client to feel like "that was not as bad as I thought it was going to be." I make the time to understand your goals, educate you about the real estate financing process, and communicate with you before, during, and sometimes after the buying process. I would be honored to help you navigate the multitude of programs available to you from First-Time Homeowner programs to conventional, government- FHA & VA, Reno, and Jumbo programs. Let me help you figure out what program will fit your needs.
Do not hesitate to call me on my cell phone, day or night at 617-922-1990.
