BORING MORTGAGE / PATRIOT HOME MORTGAGE

“Exciting”
isn’t always
a good thing.

Neither is a text from your lender that starts with “So… funny story.”

You want a boring mortgage.
I’m your guy. Nobody is more boring than me.

BORING IS THE WHOLE POINT

You found the house.
Let’s not add a tiger.

You’re packing boxes. You’ve booked the truck. Then your lender calls: “We may have a problem.”

Exciting, right? Exactly. I’m Erik Miller with Patriot Home Mortgage. I’d rather ask the awkward questions early, explain the numbers, and keep you in the loop. Wild stuff.

I can’t promise every loan will be uneventful. I can promise I take the boring details seriously.

OUR TARGET AUDIENCE, APPARENTLY.

Now that’s
the reaction I want.

A mortgage so well explained, your biggest question is where you put the coffee.

Meet your boring mortgage guy ↗

YES, YOU CAN ASK THAT.

The questions
people actually ask.

Do I need to know which loan I want?

No. Tell me about your situation and we can review the options together. Loan eligibility depends on your finances, the property, and program requirements.

What should I have ready?

Start with your goals and timeline. For an application, expect requests for income and asset documentation, identification, and information about debts and the property. Your exact checklist depends on your situation. Use Patriot’s secure application for sensitive documents.

Is the lowest rate always the best deal?

Compare the rate alongside lender fees, points, mortgage insurance, monthly payment, and cash to close. Ask for comparable Loan Estimates so you can understand the tradeoffs.

Does boring mean nothing can go wrong?

No lender can promise that. Boring means aiming for a prepared, well-explained process: identifying issues early, communicating clearly, and helping you understand the next step.

YOU DESERVE A BORING MORTGAGE
