    Jessie and Caleb are knowledgeable and quick. Jessie went above and beyond for us; when we were out of town he collected necessary documents for us so our deadlines wouldn't be delayed. When we had difficulty with the insurance binder, Caleb...

    About
    Hi there, I'm Jess Van Wagoner, and I've had the pleasure of assisting over 1,000 families with their mortgage financing needs throughout my career. As a Top 1% mortgage originator in the U.S., I believe our Team's success comes from open communication, a warm and approachable personality, and a deep understanding of the lending process. This helps our clients and Realtor partners experience a simple and smooth loan transaction. I'm dedicated to educating homebuyers about the loan process and providing top-notch service at every step. This allows us to tailor the perfect mortgage to each client's unique needs. I specialize in a variety of loans, including Conventional, FHA, VA, and USDA loans, as well as Jumbo Loans, down payment assistance, and renovation and new construction programs. With licenses in multiple states, I can offer an exceptional mortgage experience to homebuyers across the country. At New American Funding, I have access to a wide range of loan products with competitive rates. The company is known for being one of the top mortgage lenders nationwide, with a strong culture of support. This results in a fast and efficient loan process that always prioritizes the client. Before entering the mortgage industry, I earned a bachelor's degree in criminal law and psychology and worked as a general contractor in residential and commercial construction for a decade. This background has given me a lasting interest in home repairs and remodeling. When I'm not helping clients, I love spending time outdoors—camping, hunting, fishing, and playing golf—and enjoying quality time with my wife and family, raising our two boys.
