About Us

Personalizing the Home Loan Process

    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 24 offices serving 23 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.

    Alex and his team were very responsive, professional and organized. They also provided me with a best possible package I could get. The mortgage I got through First Home Mortgage saved me a lot of money on both closing costs and my monthly payment.

    I had just sold my a home with an agent that was not too attentive, and was still lucky enough to get a rent back for 60 days. I needed to find a house ASAP! I also had the challenge of getting the right mortgage product as my credit would take 30 days to fully return to normal. With my new Real Estate Agent, Ashley, being a real superstar, she recommended Carli, from First Home Mortgage. I have never had any process like this run so smooth! She and Ashley kept me aware of listings, documents needed and received and emails through the whole process. Very refreshing after what I had gone through previously. I’m planning to get rental property in the future. I will definitely work with Carli from First Home Mortgage and Ashley again!

    Lexi was so patient and professional, I asked the same question several times because I was not understanding and she explained it in a different manner each time to ensure that I understood the information. Lexi then learned that I am a visual learned, so she started to send videos explaining all of the numbers, which was so very helpful. Her patience and knowledge helped to educate me throughout this whole process. I don’t think it would have gone as smoothly if I was working with someone else!

    We had a great experience working with Will. He was responsive and informative – guiding us through every step of the process. His instructions to us were always clear, follow-up was prompt, and we were never made to feel that our questions were a hassle or that he was too busy for us. Rather than just follow a process, Will consistently looked for ways to make the re-fi work best for us – even if it meant his team had to repeat a step or change course. We closed in record time and couldn’t be happier with the experience working with Will and his team.

    She is the first and best mortgage officer I got. Very easy to communicate. Her team also did very good job. They helped to complete all steps without any rush. Thank you Katty and her great team.

    White glove service. We opted out of using our own financial firm for a mortgage in order to work with Chris and his team. Attentive, seamless and willing to go the extra mile. I’ll work with Chris for all of my lending needs in the future.

    Bill Payne is great to work with – made the process so easy and seamless. I really appreciated all the time and effort he spent to make sure I understood everything. Great work!

    My experience was exceptional. Very informative and on top of it with the timing. If it wasn’t for the buyer we would’ve been able to close in 21 days! Dan and his team are above all professional and my transaction could not have been any smoother!

    The First Home Mortgage Team along with Mr. Stempler have been awesome. Special thanks to Adam, Loran, Jennifer and Donna. They made sure I had everything I needed to make my first home purchase complete. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience because they provided excellent service.
