About Rhonda Porter
I've been in the mortgage industry since 2000, but my roots in
this business go back even further — 14 years working in title and escrow
before that. That background gives me a perspective most loan officers simply
don't have. I understand the full picture of a real estate transaction, not
just the lending side, and that makes a real difference for my clients.
With over 30 years in related fields, I genuinely love what I do.
I'm passionate about making sure you understand every step of the process — not
just handing you paperwork and hoping for the best. Whether you're buying your
first home, refinancing, self-employed, or picking up an investment property or
vacation home, I'm here to find the right fit for your situation and walk you
through it.
I'm a state-approved Home Buyer Education instructor and write The
Mortgage Porter, a nationally recognized mortgage blog. My work has been
featured in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, NPR, CNBC, Bankrate, and
other national outlets — and I've been honored by my peers with the WAMP
Leadership & Humanitarian Award as one of Washington state's top Mortgage
Originators, four years running.
Most of my business comes from referrals and returning clients,
which I take as the highest compliment. My goal isn't just to get you to
closing — it's to be your go-to resource long after the ink dries.
When I'm not working, you'll find me painting, gardening, making a
glorious mess in the kitchen, or spending time with our adult kids.
I'd love the chance to work with you.

Homeownership Initiative?
The Pathway to Homeownership offers qualified borrowers in select areas up to $6,000 in assistance. These funds are not a loan that needs to be repaid and are available to first-time homebuyers in designated areas.
