Residential Lending
Kennedy Mortgage works with Texas homebuyers, homeowners, and investors across the full range of residential mortgage programs. As a broker, we shop each loan across multiple wholesale lenders to find the right combination of rate, structure, and qualifying flexibility for the specific borrower and property. Whether you’re a first-time buyer using FHA, a veteran using VA, a self-employed borrower needing bank statement documentation, an investor buying a rental, or a foreign national purchasing a U.S. property, there is a program that fits, and we’ll find it.
