About Ed

I was born Chicago, IL 1958 and moved to Lakewood, OH in 1972.  I attended Lakewood High School and graduated in 1976.

I worked as a machinist from 1976 to 1995 during that time I obtained my Insurance License in 1985 with the State of Ohio and worked both as a licensed insurance agent and as a machinist. 

In 1997, I left my machinist job and starting to work with City Loan Financial /Commercial Credit selling/obtaining (non secured personal loans.) From there worked for several mortgage companies until I help form American Dream Home Loans with my wife in 1999.

At American Dream Home Loans, I preformed many tasks including developing and creating the telemarketing department, managing the day to day office duties, managed employees and helped them to close loans. I worked directly with customers from the beginning of their loan until the loan closed. I followed up and maintained customer contact and files.

We closed American Dream Home Loans in 2008. I had various jobs in the financial field only to find out they went out of business. In 2011 obtained a position at Penn Financial as a Loan Originator the company proved to be strong and committed to customer service. At New Penn, I like helping people acquire their home as well as assisting borrowers in saving thousands in the refinancing of their current loan. The market seemed to be stabile enough to jump right back in not every customer need a new loan we take care in evaluating the risks and rewards of before recommending any loan to insure your loan is right for you.
