About Mike Carpenter
More and more lenders are promoting tools that don’t require you to interact with a human to make one of the biggest financial decisions of your life.I believe you deserve better. And I’ve spent nearly 20 years providing my clients with the guidance they need so they don’t just get a loan — they get the right loan.
You see, the mortgage process isn’t quite as simple as the ads make it seem. It takes knowledge and experience to navigate, particularly in a competitive real-estate market, where the right combination of speed and expertise can make the difference between a successful offer and losing out on your dream home.
My clients, many of whom are first-time homebuyers or have run into resistance from other lenders, always know where they stand in that complex process. That’s because I take the time to explain their options, so they can make an informed, confident decision. And most of them, like the 35+ clients who have given me five-star reviews on Yelp, would even say I’m an adviser and advocate first, and a mortgage professional second.
“I felt that Mike really cared for me, rather than seeing the whole process as just another transaction.” (Yelp comment)
“Mike did a fantastic job of seeing me through the entire process, from ‘newbie’ to homeowner.” (Yelp comment)
I continue to serve as a resource for many of my past clients, often years after they purchased or refinanced their homes. They come to me because they know I provide a level of personal service uncommon in this industry. They come to me because they know I care. And they come to me because they know I have the willingness, and the knowledge, to help.
I’d love to help you, too — whether you’re buying, refinancing or just weighing your options. Send me a message: mikec@wfmtg.com or give me a call at 206-465-5528 today.

"A loan officer that gets the job done quietly but effectively Mike Carpenter does not disappoint. He works tirelessly addressing the details to avoid problems deeper into the process, significantly saving time and money for his clients. Readily accessible to address questions throughout the process, Mike earnestly cares about making sure the customers he accepts receive his highest priority regardless of how pressured he is due to his popularity and that is genuinely a wonderful relationship to have. The refi closing was completed without any complications in the timeframe negotiated up front. Michael Carpenter works hard to do his part to make the difference between success and failure for Washington First in the competitive mortgage loan industry and is truly an asset to your organization.
