Do you only offer VA loans?

No. I'm a Mortgage Loan Originator with Edge Home Finance, LLC, a mortgage broker, so I can shop a file across many lenders. VA is the majority of what I do, and I also handle FHA, Conventional, USDA and Non-QM.

Do you only service the Dayton and Cincinnati markets?

Dayton and Cincinnati are the majority of my business. I am personally licensed to originate mortgage loans in 34 states, and through the Edge Home Finance, LLC corporate referral program I can help veterans in every state except New York. Edge Home Finance, LLC is licensed in 49 states and the District of Columbia and does not arrange, solicit, or originate mortgage loans for real property located in the State of New York.

Are you looking to get a cannabis mortgage loan in Florida?

I can help.

The marijuana industry is one of the trickiest areas of home financing.

Medical marijuana is legal in Florida, but recreational marijuana is not. Federally, marijuana dispensed under a state issued medical license moved from Schedule I to Schedule III on April 28, 2026, so it is no longer banned outright, though it remains a controlled substance and businesses need DEA registration.

Sadly, because of this, most banks will turn down anyone working in the marijuana industry.

The great news is it is possible for cannabis industry workers to get approved for a home loan.

Because I am a licensed Mortgage Loan Originator working through Edge Home Finance, LLC, a mortgage broker in Florida with access to 150 lenders, I am able to find mortgage companies that are ok with doing weed related mortgage financing.

Separate from the income question, and easy to miss: Florida’s disabled veteran property tax exemption is really three separate exemptions, and a total and permanent service-connected disability gets a full exemption on your homestead. You file it with your county assessor and it has nothing to do with how you earn your money.
