Buying or refinancing a home in Orlando? Get fast pre-approval, multiple lender options, and personal guidance from a local Florida mortgage broker who knows the Central Florida market.
Local Mortgage Help for Orlando Buyers & Homeowners
Orlando's housing market is one of the most diverse in Florida — from downtown condos and new construction in Lake Nona to single-family homes in Dr. Phillips, College Park, and Winter Park. As a local mortgage broker, I help clients understand how loan programs, insurance costs, property taxes, and underwriting guidelines affect real affordability.
I'm Brandt Myers, based in nearby Winter Garden. I work with multiple wholesale lenders which allows me to compare rates, programs, and guidelines to find the best fit for your goals — whether you're buying, refinancing, or investing in the Orlando area.
Why Orlando Buyers Work With a Broker
More Loan Options
Access to multiple wholesale lenders instead of just one bank means more programs, more flexibility, and often better pricing for Orlando buyers.
Personal Service
You work directly with me — no call centers, no hand-offs. Clear communication and fast answers from application through closing.
Local Market Knowledge
I understand the Orlando metro market — neighborhood pricing trends, HOA considerations, Florida insurance costs, and what it takes to get a loan closed smoothly.
Investor-Friendly
Orlando is one of Florida's top investment markets. I offer DSCR loans that qualify based on rental income — ideal for investors growing their portfolio in the area.
Home Loan Programs for Orlando
Every buyer's situation is different. Here are the programs I offer for Orlando purchases, refinances, and home equity needs.

Flexible financing with competitive rates. As low as 3% down for qualified Orlando buyers.

Lower your rate, remove PMI, or access cash-out equity from your Orlando home. I'll run the numbers side by side.

Qualify based on rental income for Orlando investment properties. Great for short-term rentals and multi-unit investors.

Fast access to your home equity for renovations, debt consolidation, or reserves.

Orlando Mortgage FAQs
How do I get pre-approved for a mortgage in Orlando?
Apply online or schedule a quick call. I'll review your income, assets, credit, and goals and provide a pre-approval with a clear payment estimate and next steps — usually the same day documents are received.
What is the difference between a mortgage broker and a bank in Orlando?
A bank can only offer its own loan products. As an independent mortgage broker I shop multiple wholesale lenders on your behalf to find competitive rates and programs that fit your goals — giving you more options than any single bank can offer.
What is the minimum down payment to buy a home in Orlando?
It depends on the loan program. Conventional loans can go as low as 3% down, FHA as low as 3.5%, and VA loans can be $0 down for eligible veterans. I'll help you compare which makes the most sense for your situation and budget.
Can I use a DSCR loan to buy an investment property in Orlando?
Yes. DSCR loans are a popular option for Orlando investors, especially for short-term rental properties in the tourism corridor. They qualify based on the rental income of the property rather than your personal income.
Does refinancing make sense right now in Orlando?
It depends on your current rate, loan balance, goals, and how long you plan to stay in the home. I'll run a no-pressure refinance review and show you options side by side so you can make an informed decision. I also offer a Refi Rate Watch so you don't have to track the market yourself.
Do you work with first-time homebuyers in Orlando?
Absolutely. I walk first-time buyers through every step — from understanding your options and getting pre-approved to closing day — so the process feels clear and manageable from start to finish.
Serving Orlando and the Surrounding Area
Based in Winter Garden, I help buyers and homeowners throughout the greater Orlando metro including Dr. Phillips, College Park, Lake Nona, Winter Park, Ocoee, and surrounding communities.
