About me
Good mortgage advice should feel like a conversation.
I’m Steve Scott, President at Affinity Group Mortgage. I’ve spent more than 30 years in mortgage lending, helping individuals and families move toward homeownership with a plan that makes sense for them.
I specialize in FHA, VA, and conventional loans. I’m also a Freddie Mac certified credit coach, a board member of the National Association of Mortgage Brokers, and hold the CRMS, CVLS, and CFMP designations.
I’m licensed in Ohio and Florida and based in Columbus, Ohio. Wherever you are starting, I want you to understand your choices, know what comes next, and feel comfortable asking every question along the way.
Why borrowers choose me
I stay involved, explain the tradeoffs, and give you a straight answer when something does not fit. That means a pre-approval you can trust, regular updates, and a calmer path to the closing table.
What happens next
Four steps, and you’ll always know which one you’re on.
01 We talk
Fifteen minutes on the phone. What you want, what you’ve saved, and what worries you. It is a conversation, not a test.
02 Pre-approval
I gather what the lender needs and let you know where you stand once it has been reviewed, so you can shop with a clearer budget.
03 Lay out your options
I compare programs and pricing and walk you through the tradeoffs side by side. You choose the direction that fits.
04 Get you to closing
I stay involved through processing and underwriting, keep communication clear, and help keep your loan moving.
