Meet Luke Ruggiero
Luke began originating mortgages in 2018. His specialties are first-time homebuyers and VA loans. Whether you are exploring a first purchase or have questions about VA financing, start with a conversation about your goals and next steps. Eligibility and loan terms depend on your circumstances and applicable program requirements.
Most conversations can begin by phone, text or email. A free 15-minute phone planning call gives you a place to discuss your timeline, ask questions about preparing for a mortgage and decide what to do next. This introductory conversation is not an application, preapproval or commitment to lend.
