DICKINSON, Texas -- March 26, 2009 -- Houston area insurance agency, MaximGroup, as expanded their services to include MaximGroup Mortgage.

Managed by a licensed loan officer, MaximGroup Mortgage offers Federal Housing Administration (FHA) Fast Loans and common residential loans. Every client is assigned a loan officer who diligently searches for the lowest possible rate to fit each unique circumstance. MaximGroup Mortgage has experienced loan officers with established industry relationships so paperwork can be turn-keyed locally between 24 and 72 hours. Additionally, the division offers a 3.5 percent down payment of FHA loans and 100 percent financing on loans for Ike victims.

"It has been said that 2009 is a buyer's market for residential real estate--especially with the new tax credit for first-time home buyers," said Ron Masters, president of MaximGroup. "We created MaximGroup Mortgage to give our clients a trusted source for mortgages so they can purchase their dream home."
MaximGroup Mortgage developed out of a partnership with Mortgage Factory, Inc. Located on Bering Drive in Houston, Mortgage Factory, Inc. operates as both a broker and lender in the residential mortgage market. Directly endorsed by HUD (U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development), the company continually researches rates from more than 200 national lenders for the lowest rates on the market.
