Douglas County, Colorado
Castle Rock, Parker, Castle Pines, Highlands Ranch, and Lone Tree — Tom Stafford has lived in and served Douglas County as a mortgage broker since 2010. He shops 50+ lenders so the loan fits the house, the HOA, and the monthly payment you can live with.
Why local still matters
South of Denver, a lot of purchases involve new construction, metro districts, HOAs, and a commute people feel every weekday. A national call center will still take the application. It will not necessarily warn you that the model-home payment ignored mill levies, or that the builder’s “free rate buydown” should be compared to an independent broker shop.

A large master-planned community, rec centers, and a C-470 commute — Highlands Ranch loans are often resale files with HOAs, not a mystery product from a TV ad.

Pre-approval that includes HOA dues and taxes, a letter Realtors can actually use, and a product match — conventional, FHA, VA, jumbo — once we see credit and down payment. Purchase process.
Only if it matches a goal: payment, term, PMI, or cash-out with a purpose. Colorado rate noise is not a reason by itself. Refinance vs. wait.
Credit path, down-payment options (including assistance programs that may apply), and a timeline that does not start the week you find a house. Castle Rock / Douglas County guide.
Veterans, jumbo purchase prices, and files that do not fit a retail box. Tom is always proud to help those who have served. VA loans for Colorado veterans.

He shops 50+ lenders and works with buyers and homeowners in Castle Rock, Parker, Castle Pines, Highlands Ranch, Lone Tree, and the wider Denver Metro — plus other states where he is licensed.
Castle Rock, Parker, Castle Pines, Highlands Ranch, and Lone Tree are the core. If your property is elsewhere in Colorado (or in AZ, CA, FL, MI, or WA), call anyway — Tom will tell you if he can help.
No. Rates, fees, and program availability change. Every loan is subject to underwriting and approval. Tom’s job is to show options that fit your situation and keep the file moving — not to promise a number from a website.
Tom averages about 11 days from submission to final approval when an appraisal is needed, and about 7.9 days when it isn’t. Averages are not guarantees; the contract, appraisal, HOA, and your documents all affect the calendar.
They should read them. Many newer Colorado communities include metropolitan districts with additional tax mill levies. Those payments belong in the affordability conversation alongside HOA dues and insurance. Tom would rather you see the full monthly picture before you fall in love with a model home.
Book a call, apply online, or just ring Tom. Douglas County nights and weekends are fair game.
