Josh is hands down one of the best loan originators I have ever worked with as a REALTOR®️. Josh is a problem solver and does the hard work required to get a loan closed.

Brandon,
Thanks for the kinds words and trusting me with your clients. Always a pleasure doing business with you and team in Florida!
Worked on a refi a couple of years ago with Josh. The whole process was smooth and communication was clear throughout. Just still continues to check in on us even after it’s been two years.

Eryne, thank you for the kind words! It's always great to connect with other business owners and discuss our fields and how we're all so interconnected. Thankful I can be a resource for you!
Josh Herr is incredibly experienced. I attended his first time homebuyer and went home with so many aspects of purchasing home that I had not considered before. More importantly, he demonstrated that the home buying process is actually not...

About
Raised in a military family, I learned discipline, strategy, and the value of a solid plan. Though I grew up in many places, Alaska is home. When I’m not hunting down the best mortgage solutions, I’m outdoors—camping, fishing, or planning the next adventure.
I started in banking at 20, working my way up to Senior Loan Officer. With a strong background in underwriting and debt management, I transitioned to mortgages in 2020, joining First Rate Financial.
Now, as The Mortgage Hunter, I take a relentless approach to finding the best loan options. Whether you’re buying or refinancing, I’ll track down the perfect deal. Let’s get the hunt started.
