About James Young

My name is James Young, and I am proud to work with the community on behalf of New American Funding. As a highly-skilled Branch Manager, NMLS #396523, my goal is to provide the best customer service possible along with knowledgeable, unbiased advice.

 

With over 20 years of experience in the mortgage industry, I’ve had the privilege of helping countless individuals and families achieve their dream of homeownership. For me, this business isn’t just about loans and paperwork ; it’s about people, relationships, and creating a clear path forward during one of life’s most important milestones.

I believe the mortgage process should feel less overwhelming and more empowering. That’s why I take the time to listen, explain options in plain language, and guide you step by step so you feel confident in every decision. Whether you’re buying your first home, upgrading to your dream home, or refinancing to make the most of your investment, my goal is to save you time, money, and stress while providing unmatched personal service.

Over two decades, I’ve built lasting partnerships with realtors, builders, and clients who return again and again—because they know they can count on me for honesty, clarity, and results. At the end of the day, my greatest satisfaction comes from seeing families settle into the homes they’ve worked so hard for, knowing I played a trusted role in making it happen.

"James Young is what made it GREAT! From day one he explained everything in detail step by step so their were never any questions or misunderstandings on what was expected and he somehow always made himself available to speak with us if needed. He is beyond friendly, professional and we could not be happier using NAF and meeting James!"
