About Andrew Harmel
Mortgage Loan Originator
I know that buying or refinancing a home is one of the biggest financial decisions that my clients will ever make. That’s why I work hard to ensure my team has the resources and know-how to ease borrowers through the loan process, with no detail overlooked.
I have an extensive background in all facets of mortgage lending, so I can advise my team members in any situation, from a first-time home purchase to a refinancing. My expertise includes Conventional, Jumbo, FHA, VA, USDA, and Renovation loans.
I also make a point of keeping up with the latest financial and industry trends, as well as state and federal regulatory requirements, so I can serve as an informed advocate for my team and our clients. I make sure my team will not only get clients a loan, but the best loan for them.

Whitney Hall was our loan officer. We lived in Michigan and moved to Florida. He did an awesome job getting all the paperwork ready for us long distance. He definitely goes the extra mile. I would definitely recommend him !

Whitney and his team were amazing and professional. Another lender was giving us the run-around and he took over. Within a month, we were in our beautiful new home. I would recommend him and his team to everyone! They will make it happen.
