About Regina Ballard

Helping families achieve the American Dream has never been just a "job" for me—it is a passion I have pursued as a Senior Loan Consultant since 2005. I specialize in guiding first-time homebuyers through the mortgage process, ensuring that what can be a daunting experience becomes a celebrated milestone.


As your local lender, I pride myself on being a real person you can reach directly during one of the most important financial transactions of your life. My business is built on 5-star reviews from clients who know that to me, they are never just another deal; I strive to be their "lender for life."
The true reward of my work is seeing children get their very first bedroom or helping a single parent who has weathered many storms finally plant roots. It is a blessing to be trusted during such a pivotal time in your life, helping you build the "roots and wings" your family deserves.


Life Outside of Lending
When I am not helping families build their futures, I am focused on my own. I am deeply passionate about my family, traveling, and soaking up every moment with my
 husband Joe, two adult children Branson and Taylor, and also my small grandchildren; Annie and Eleanor.
