Where I Lend: Phoenix Metro Service Areas

I'm based in north Scottsdale with Barrett Financial Group's corporate office in Chandler, and I lend across the entire Valley. Every market below has its own quirks — property types, price bands, appraisal dynamics — and the pages here get into the specifics.

Dedicated local guides

  • Chandler — my home office market. Purchase and refinance across Chandler's neighborhoods, from Ocotillo to downtown, plus Intel-corridor relocation buyers.
  • Phoenix — the biggest market in the state, from Arcadia and North Central to Laveen and Ahwatukee. FHA, conventional, DPA, and everything in between.
  • Scottsdale — jumbo and high-balance territory, second homes, and the condo market. This is where I live and lend daily.
  • Scottsdale condo loans — warrantability decides the deal on condos. A dedicated guide for buyers and their agents.
  • Cave Creek — custom homes, acreage, well and septic, horse property, and jumbo loans north of Carefree Highway.

Also serving the East Valley and beyond

Gilbert, Mesa, Tempe, Queen Creek, Peoria, Glendale, and the rest of Maricopa and Pinal counties get the same treatment — I just haven't written their dedicated guides yet. The mechanics travel well: the 2026 conforming limit is $832,750 across all of Maricopa County, Arizona DPA programs work Valley-wide, and I shop every file across 160+ wholesale lenders regardless of the address.

Licensed in Arizona and a dozen other states, so if your move crosses state lines, I can usually keep the same file moving. Ask on the call.
