American Mortgage is Here to Help
A Few Words About The Company
American Mortgage Services is an independent mortgage broker, offering more loan programs with fewer restrictions than banks and credit unions. We rarely charge lender fees on FHA, VA, USDA, and Conventional loans. We specialize in renovation loans such as the FHA 203K and the Fannie Mae Homestyle.
We close the loans that other lenders cannot, and we close the majority of our loans in less than 30 days. We pride ourselves in closing loans on time and keeping our realtors and buyers updated and well-informed throughout the closing process. We do not operate by banker’s hours; we are here to answer our clients’ calls and questions 24/7. We don’t just get your loan approved, we get it closed!
