About Us

Personalizing the Home Loan Process

Jump to:

From pre-qualification to closing, we are committed to providing the right loan to finance your home.

First Home Mortgage Corporation is a licensed, full service, residential lender. Our dedicated loan officers guide borrowers throughout the entire mortgage process and offer continued support long after a loan has closed. We take the time to understand the needs of our clients in order to find the best solutions, whether it’s a first-time buyer or an experienced owner.

Beginning in 1990, with two offices and a handful of employees, our founder and CEO, David Waters, was dedicated to a common vision to stay independent and provide superior service.

Since then, we have grown into a financial institution of 32 offices serving 21 states in the North Eastern, Mid Atlantic, and Southern regions.

Although First Home Mortgage continues to expand service locations, each of our locations is deeply rooted in their community and committed to helping local borrowers.

Each member of our team is focused on delivering customer service that not only fulfills goals, but exceeds expectations.

In the end, we provide the mortgage you need to make “Home” happen, but it’s the people who are always “First”.

Our Mission

First Home Mortgage Corporation is committed to improving the quality of life for all customers and employees.

This will be attained by:

Providing superior service
Seeking to constantly understand each other’s needs
Promoting community involvement
Developing mutual trust, which will be the foundation for all relationships
Requiring excellence and integrity in everything we do

Company Culture

At First Home Mortgage, our culture is based on the simple belief that everything we do is to improve the lives of the people we serve – our customers, partners and employees.

We understand that our purpose goes far beyond loan origination. We are here to help the home buyers in local communities achieve homeownership. With this mission in mind, our Loan Officers take the time to understand the financing needs of each client, outline the right loan programs, and make themselves available as mentors throughout the entire mortgage process. It is this personal approach that allows us to maintain such a high quality of service.

First Home Mortgage has built a reputation among business partners as being efficient, responsible and forthcoming. We keep all of our stakeholders informed during a transaction and deliver results, helping our partners succeed. The care and consideration we take in our lending practice is the reason why so many partners trust us with their clients.

The dedicated team at First Home Mortgage is our greatest asset. We value each employee and continuously provide a supportive atmosphere within our corporate office as well as our branch locations. Together we work to provide the best experience for our borrowers, which is why First Home Mortgage never hesitates to invest in our employees and their future.

I loved working with First Home in Easton! They made everything so smooth and easy. Brittany Wright does an excellent job helping you through the process and responds in a fast manner.

Stephanie Ridgely, MD

Chris made the lending process very easy. He was easy to work with from the introduction to after the closing of the loan. He always responded to voicemails, e-mails, and text messages. He offered to be available 7 days a week, anytime of the day. I questioned if my loaned could be closed in under 30 days. Chris and company were able to close the loan in 2 weeks and on great terms — quite impressive. I would definitely work with Chris Edge and team again.

Tammy Edgewood, MD

There are not enough words to describe the professionalism and commitment that Alex has for his craft. The process was well executed and very streamlined given the fact that the VA did had some issues. With those issues, Alex and his team were beyond transparent and explained how and why these issues were affecting the process. Alex gave us the peace of mind that things were moving forward and everything was completed. I will advocate for Alex and his team and will continue to work with them on our future plans and projects.
