About the CEO, Linus Thalman

I fell in love with the mortgage industry in 2004 and have never looked back. My parents build custom homes, and real estate is in my blood. Because this can be the biggest investment of your life, I want you to feel comfortable during the entire process. Like all of my clients, you will receive customized, red carpet service so you can make confident decisions for you and your family.

I begin by listening to your goals, as I’m your mortgage consultant and not a salesman. That way, I can understand your financial needs and present you with a home loan plan catered to your specific circumstances. A detailed consultation allows me to deliver a smooth journey for you that leads to a timely closing.

I’ve set my sights on being the best lender in my area, and I’m determined to continually get better instead of just bigger. This balance reflects the ultimate success in my eyes. I want to be great in all areas of my life instead of just a few – including work, family, recreation, health, faith, and finances.

I grew up in Ludington, Michigan, and attended college at Western Michigan University. Upon graduation, I was lucky enough to be introduced to my mentor, Rick Ruby. He’s been an incredible asset during my career. I’ve also been involved with sports throughout my life and am currently practicing my golf game. My three kids are my everything, and I enjoy coaching their athletic teams.
