Brandt Myers • NMLS #2030154 • Serving Clermont, FL
Clermont's known for bigger lots and more house for the money than nearby Winter Garden — which for a lot of homeowners here means real, usable equity. Whether you're in Kings Ridge, near the Chain of Lakes, or off Hartwood Marsh, I help Clermont homeowners access that equity fast, with a program that skips the traditional appraisal wait.
Clermont sits in Lake County's hill-and-lake country — one of the few genuinely hilly stretches in Central Florida — with a mix of established communities like Kings Ridge and Legends alongside newer growth further out toward Minneola. Homeowners here often bought more square footage and larger lots than they'd get closer to Orlando, which means meaningful equity even without the fastest appreciation in the metro.
Common local uses: renovating older homes near downtown Clermont's lakefront district, financing a pool (a near-default here given the climate), consolidating debt, and tapping equity as a down payment on a second property.

With Clermont's typical home value around $427,000, a homeowner with a $220,000 mortgage balance could potentially access roughly $121,600 at 80% combined loan-to-value ($427K × 80% = $341,600, minus $220K owed), or up to $164,300 on a qualifying 90% program ($427K × 90% = $384,300, minus $220K owed). Actual numbers depend on your specific property value, mortgage balance, and program qualification — I can run your real figures on a call.
No. A HELOC is a second lien on your property and doesn't affect your homestead exemption or Save Our Homes property tax cap. Those are tied to ownership and residency, not how your equity is financed.
Yes — the program is available throughout the greater Clermont area, including neighborhoods near Minneola and the Chain of Lakes, subject to standard lender guidelines and property qualification.
