Financing

Cobalt Mortgage is one of the largest, privately owned Mortgage Bankers in the State of Washington.  We offer Internal Underwriting, Processing and funding, meaning that we close loans quickly, efficiently and effortlessly. 

My consultative approach to lending recognizes that one needs to find the right mortgage solution and that decision is far more complicated that it was a few years ago.  I believe in educating my clientele so prudent financial decisions can be made.
