Our start-up costs are outlined in the following table. Start-up costs derive from website design,
office equipment, main computer station complete with all mortgage information for broker
usage, stationery, legal costs, furnishings, office advertising and services, and expenses
associated with opening our office. The start-up costs are to be financed by direct owner
investment and credit. Lease office space averages $1.10 - 1.60 per square foot to an
approximate of $1,500 per month, plus utilities, for efficient leased office space. Commercial
lease will be for a three to five year agreement with the first month and a security deposit equal
to the monthly lease rate payable at the time of lease start date.

Services
Our personal goal is to break through the barriers that impede homeownership for those who
wish to realize the American Dream. We provide potential and current homeowners the
opportunity to find the best mortgage loan for their needs.
We match buyers to loan programs. We have an extensive questionnaire for our buyers to list
their wants and needs. We then take this questionnaire and put the supplied information to match
buyers to the loan packages matching their criteria.
