About Stone Keefauver

Stone Keefauver is a Florida-based mortgage professional and co-leads the Kee Lending Group, a father-and-son lending team built on trust, clarity, and a family-first approach to homeownership. He serves individuals and families across Florida, helping them navigate the mortgage process with confidence, whether they’re a first-time homebuyer, veteran, self-employed, or seasoned homeowners planning their next move.

His work is deeply rooted in education and strategy, believing that a mortgage should never feel confusing or rushed, which is why he takes a consultative, data-driven approach. Instead choosing to walk clients through loan options, credit positioning, affordability planning, and long-term outcomes. From FHA, VA, USDA, and Conventional loans to renovation, construction-to-permanent, manufactured housing, and down-payment assistance programs, specializing in finding solutions where others may say “no.”

Beyond lending, he's passionate about credit improvement and financial readiness, helping clients strengthen their profiles so they can qualify for better terms and build lasting stability. Every recommendation is intentional, transparent, and aligned with the client’s goals for now and years down the road.

His faith plays a central role in how he leads and serves, striving to reflect integrity, patience, and stewardship in business, treating every client like family and every transaction as a responsibility. Buying a home is one of the biggest decisions a family makes, and the goal is simple: that clients walk away feeling blessed and not stressed, prepared for greater financial success.
