I’m Tom Lade, a loan officer serving Powell, Columbus and communities across Central Ohio. Buying a home, moving into your next one or using your home equity should not feel complicated. I’ll explain your options clearly, solve problems early and help you move forward with confidence. 

Since 2012, I’ve guided more than 1,200 homebuyers and homeowners through the mortgage process. From first-time homebuyers and move-up buyers to self-employed borrowers, real estate investors and current homeowners, I’ve used many loans to help many different situations.  

At America’s #1 Retail Mortgage lender, I offer Non-QM loans designed for self-employed borrowers and real estate investors, including bank statement, asset qualifier, 1099, P&L and DSCR options. I can also help you explore a HELOC for renovations, debt consolidation, investment opportunities or accessing equity without refinancing. Plus, my Buy Now, Sell Later program may let you purchase your next home before selling your current one.
