About Rhonda Porter

I began my mortgage career in 2000, after 14 years in the title and escrow industry. My background in title and escrow was an invaluable experience, giving me a unique understanding and perspective on mortgage lending. With over thirty years in related fields, I'm passionate about educating my clients, offering the best mortgage products for their needs and helping them navigate and understand the entire process. It is important to me that you are happy with my services from start to finish.


I am a state approved Home Buyer Education instructor and author of a nationally recognized blog, The Mortgage Porter. I'm honored to have been recognized by my peers as one of the top Mortgage Originators in Washington state at the WAMP Leadership & Humanitarian  awards for four consecutive years.


I specialize in residential lending for purchase and refinance mortgages. Whether you are buying your first home, self-employed, buying a vacation home or investment property; it gives me great pleasure to help people achieve their goals.


Away from the office, I enjoy painting, gardening, making a mess of our kitchen and of course getting to see our adult kids. 


My business relies on referrals and returning clients. It's my goal to establish relationships that will last beyond the closing of the transaction. I hope I earn the opportunity to work with you!

NAF Cash Can Turn You into a Cash Buyer

Interact with our map to track cash
Purchase trends across the country

With NAF Cash, you can make a competitive, true cash offer that is not contingent on financing and close in little as seven days without having to sell your current home first.

Source: This dataset combines data from Public Records and MLS transactions. The data lists the number of all-cash purchases and the total number of home purchases nationwide including the most recent five quarters of data. (Cash purchase defined when a Property Sold record does not have a Mortgage Balance.) Data coverage is limited by available MLS coverage. Certain geographies like Georgia (especially Central GA), South Dakota and Vermont were impacted by this data availability. Land sales and manufactured (MFR) home sales are excluded from the dataset.
