About Ethan Dean

I'm a Top Loan Consultant passionate about helping buyers achieve homeownership. Whether you're a first-time buyer or purchasing a luxury property or investment home, I take the time to understand your full financial picture and match you with the right loan program.


Too many buyers get stuck working with lenders who take a one-size-fits-all approach. I specialize in finding creative solutions and exploring every option available—whether that's FHA, VA, USDA, Conventional, or one of the many down payment assistance programs I have access to. My goal is to help you feel confident and informed every step of the way, from pre-approval to closing.


I'm also committed to being a reliable partner to real estate agents. I respond quickly, communicate clearly, and work hard to help your clients get to the closing table. I'm available nights and weekends because I know that's when life happens and questions come up. More than anything, I love helping people discover what's actually possible. If you've been told "no" or aren't sure where to start, let's talk. I'd love to help you figure out your next step and get you moving toward homeownership

"To God Be The Glory. However, Mr. Dean is highly commendable. He is a super-duper professional, who is worth his salt. He is courageous and steadfast. He is always ready to be of help and continually uphold the gesture all the way. He is my man of all Seasons. What was canceled was rekindled, in amazingly 2 weeks! What we had been on, back and forth for a month; was turned around for Success. He is the best. I recommend him to anyone loosing hopes in an attempt to become a Houseowner. You are in safe hands with him. Many thanks again, Mr. Ethan Dean. You are absolutely the Best."
