How the Team Works

Every client starts with a real conversation — goals first, paperwork second. From there we map out the programs that fit, shows the payment and cash-to-close for each, and lets you decide with the full picture in front of you.

Through closing, we stay your points of contact. You get proactive updates instead of chasing status, and direct access by phone, text or email when questions come up. Martin is available at (512) 897-7134 or martin.a@edgehomefinance.com.

We originate through Edge Home Finance Corporation, which supplies the lending platform, program access and pricing behind every loan we write.
