  • Episode #10 Jessica Bordner - VanDyk Mortgage
    Sep 14 2018

    Loan Originator, Jessica Bordner, with VanDyk Mortgage was not only informative but a great person to speak with about living in Florida. Being a true Floridian, Jessica was born in St Petersburg, but raised in a rural part of Pasco County. Now living in Pinellas County, she brings a great perspective of family life and “Salt Life.”

    Her well rounded experience gives her a unique insight to qualify borrowers before issuing the “Preapproval Letter” which is required for 95% of all purchases today. “We have first time home buyer programs with Zero “0” down payment which hasn’t been around for a long time.” states Jessica. This is scheduled to launch sometime this month for those buyers who qualify. It’s a great step towards home ownership.

    If you are just moving to Florida, Jessica recommends getting out and exploring all that Florida has to offer but "don’t forget the sunscreen."

    Contact Jessica to get preapproved today!
