I was referred to Mike when I was first in the market to purchase a home i around 2009-2010. He made a terribly foreign process manageable and was able to offer insight and advice for a topic to which I had absolutely no knowledge or understanding. He became someone I have the utmost trust in as he has helped me refinance my mortgage and obtain a home equity loan. So thankful for his help over the years!

Hi, I’m Mike. I’ve been helping people finance their homes since 2003, and I still get excited about every single closing. Mortgages aren’t just numbers and paperwork to me — they’re the foundation for someone’s home, family, and future.
Over the last 20+ years, I’ve built my business on relationships and trust. My clients know me for being hands-on, creative, and responsive, especially when a deal is complicated or time-sensitive. I love finding ways to make the impossible happen, whether that’s helping a first-time buyer get into their dream home, structuring a loan for a self-employed client, or rescuing a transaction that’s gone sideways elsewhere.
What drives me is seeing the relief and joy on a client’s face when the loan funds and the keys are handed over. It’s why I answer the phone on vacation and why so many of my clients become long-term friends.
When I’m not working on loans, you’ll usually find me at the beach with my dog Tucker, out surfing or kite surfing, on the golf course, or playing pickleball. I also spend a lot of time cheering on my kids at baseball, water polo, and swim meets. I love traveling with my family, skiing in the winter, and staying active.
If you’re thinking about buying, refinancing, or just exploring your options, I’d love to be your guide through the process.

You can choose from a wide range of programs, including Conventional, FHA, VA, Jumbo, USDA, Renovation and Construction, Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARM), Cash Out Refinance, HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit), and Reverse Mortgages. We also specialize in Self Employed Mortgages, Bank Statement Loans, Non Qualified Mortgage (Non QM) programs, Investment Property Financing, and ITIN or Foreign National loans. Mike Wright helps you compare them side by side, so you get a loan that fits your needs today and supports your goals long term.
First-time buyers can benefit from FHA programs and Down Payment Assistance (DPA) that make entry more affordable. Mike Wright explains how to qualify, reviews credits and assistance, and prepares a clean file for pre approval. You will see payment and cash to close figures in advance, so you can shop with confidence in California’s competitive markets.
Conventional loans are popular for their flexible terms and competitive rates. They support primary homes, second homes, and investment properties. Mike Wright shows how to remove mortgage insurance once equity grows, and how fixed or adjustable terms affect your monthly payment and total cost over time.
FHA financing allows lower down payments and more forgiving credit requirements. It’s a helpful option for buyers who are building credit or managing past challenges. Mike Wright organizes documents, explains mortgage insurance, and sets appraisal expectations, so you have a smooth process from start to finish.
VA loans provide zero down, no monthly mortgage insurance, and competitive rates for veterans, service members, and eligible spouses. Mike Wright secures your Certificate of Eligibility, explains entitlement, and guides you from pre approval to closing so your service is rewarded with a calm, affordable process.
In many California markets, home prices exceed conventional limits. Jumbo loans cover those higher amounts and often require careful review of income, reserves, and property value. Mike Wright prepares a strong file and explains fixed, adjustable, or interest only structures, so you can buy with confidence.
Self employed buyers can use Bank Statement Loans, 1099 income, or profit and loss statements to show true earnings. Mike Wright reviews deposits, organizes statements, and finds the right lender fit. This ensures your approval reflects how you actually earn, not just what shows on tax returns.
Non Qualified Mortgage programs help when traditional rules do not fit. They can qualify borrowers based on bank statements, 1099s, assets, or property cash flow. Mike Wright explains guideline options, sets expectations, and creates a plan you can refinance into a conventional loan later if it benefits you.
Investment loans can be structured as conventional or DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loans that qualify based on rental income. Mike Wright reviews rent schedules, down payment options, and reserve rules, then shows how each structure supports your portfolio and long term growth strategy.
Yes. ITIN loans and Foreign National programs allow buyers without a Social Security Number to purchase a home. These loans verify identity, funds, and income through alternative documentation. Mike Wright provides a clear checklist and manages each step so international buyers can achieve homeownership with confidence.
If you plan to upgrade a property or build a home, these programs finance purchase plus improvements or land plus construction with one plan. Mike Wright coordinates bids, inspections, and draws, then explains after improved value so your project stays on budget and on schedule.
An ARM offers a lower starting payment with a fixed period, followed by adjustments tied to an index. It can be a smart choice if you plan to move or refinance within that window. Mike Wright explains caps, models future payments, and sets refinance checkpoints so you stay prepared.
A Cash Out Refinance provides a lump sum, while a HELOC offers flexible access with a line of credit you can draw and repay during the term. Mike Wright reviews loan to value limits, payment impact, and long term costs so you can choose the approach that balances flexibility and savings.
A reverse mortgage can eliminate monthly mortgage payments for homeowners age 62 or older. Funds can be received as a lump sum, line of credit, or monthly payments. Proceeds can be used for care, renovations, or even purchasing a new home. Mike Wright explains eligibility, counseling, and protections so your retirement plan feels steady and safe.
