SELFi Mission
Accelerate Financial Independence
We’re starting with mortgages, life’s biggest debt, but not stopping there.
Joe’s core values
Transparency:
I believe that customers should be able to see what I see. I believe that bad news should not wait.
Education:
I believe financial knowledge is the key to unlocking the best deals. For too long, mortgage companies have profited off borrower ignorance. We take the opposite approach and lift the curtain on mortgages.
Freedom:
I believe in choice. That consumers should have the option to get a mortgage on their own terms, whenever they want, and in return for being self-reliant, get the best possible deal.
SELFi was #17 of 10,000+ mortgage brokers with Rocket Mortgage in 2020
