American Family Funding and Credit Unions

We Bring You Loans and Help You Build Your ARM Portfolios

We have customers that do not always meet every guideline for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, but they are still very strong candidates that we can present for your loan portfolio. We also have extensive experience in helping Credit Unions build portfolios containing Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARM) that are 5/1, 7/1 and 10/1 that can help protect your portfolio in a rising interest rate market.

Generate Fee Income

We have a completely compliant referral program where you can generate fee income by referring loans to us that do not meet your portfolio guidelines. If you do not do portfolio loans, you can still receive fee income for referring potential loans to us.

This was my first time buying a home. Jilyn was recommended to me by a local realtor and she was the perfect lender for me! She listened to my needs and helped me find a loan at a great rate for my targeted budget. There was never any pressure for me to make a decision that I wasn't sure about, and she was 100% honest through the entire process, from pre-qualification and estimated rates all the way through closing, no surprises. We closed at a rate that was very close to the original quote when we were just running numbers, and the combined loan, local taxes, and other costs came in right at my target monthly budget. She was very helpful and truly went above and beyond to be on-call whenever I needed her help and answer every question about the buying process that I had. I would definitely recommend Jilyn to others and especially those who are buying their first home such as myself. I would be happy to work with her again for my next purchase.

Patti was not only intelligent and knowledgeable, but extremely personable and helpful. I would recommend her to anyone that is looking to purchase or refinance their home.

She is the BEST!!! I have never had such great customer service. I went through some ups and downs with the offers, but Patti was there for me every step of the way. She gave me facts that allowed me to weigh my decisions and make better decisions. I have already told many friends to use her if they have lending needs. I can't tell you one negative thing!!

Unbelievable service! Patti is extremely knowledgeable, patient and was able to explain everything to my husband and I in simple terms. Things can be quite confusing in the mortgage world but Patti made sure that everything made sense to us. She would answer emails and phone calls on the weekends and always checked in with us to let us know how things were progressing. At the end of the process it felt like Patti was a part of the family! Patti is an absolute pleasure to work with and we will only work with her from here on out if we need to refi or if we ever need a new mortgage.

Patti always returned emails and answered the phone promptly.

Nicole and her team were instrumental in getting all the pieces in place for our refi loan. This was one of the less stressful and easier business transactions that we've had in a long time. Thanks Nicole & team.

Everyone in your office was extremely personable, helpful, knowledgeable and efficient (the list could go on and on). Not only have they mastered the nuances of their industry but they have also mastered the art of providing superior customer service. When they were helping me with something it was as though I was their only client; their focus was on helping me without any distractions. Everyone that I spoke with treated me as if they had known me for years even if I had never met them. Everyone was up to date on my situation; I never had to re-explain past conversations. This is a very comforting feeling when you are going through a new home purchase. In all the hassles that go along with purchasing a home and moving, American Family Funding was the easiest part of the journey. I can't thank them enough for all their help. I wish that other service providers were as pleasant to work with as American Family Funding.

This letter is to address my journey through the process of a reverse mortgage we executed for my Mom. I contacted Steve Schaefer not knowing Steve or anything about the process. From the very start to the end Steve lead us though a detail of tasks well organized with clear instructions. The process went smoothly and he kept us well informed all the way. Steve’s overall communication and pleasant demeanor made my journey quite easy. I would strongly recommend Steve to anyone who is interested in moving forward with a Reverse Mortgage.
