About Felicia Petersen

In 1997 I was an Administrative Assistant a small mortgage broker. By 2000 I became the Human Resources & Admin Manager. I was deeply involved in the company, becoming a direct lender with FHA and VA endorsements as well as opening many branches throughout Southern California and the U.S. I became fluent in the work involved throughout the entire process of residential lending with this position. With this knowledge and experience and fully encouraging support from the owner, I finally made the career change in 2013 to a Mortgage Loan Officer. As the years have passed, I have discovered that saving families money through a refinance or working with them for a home purchase is truly a blessing that I absolutely am passionate about.

Mortgage lending is a very competitive business. Distinguishing yourself is very important; you have to brand yourself so that your community knows you and what you stand for. I’ve become more personable and understanding as I’ve learned no one is in a perfect situation, because of this clients learn quickly that they can trust me, which is what I strive for.

As a direct lender, we offer Conventional, FHA, VA, USDA, 203K Reverse Mortgages, and Section 184 loans. We also offer loans utilizing a variety of specialty programs for those beyond the typical scenario.

The loan application process can be very automated, but with me, you know there is a real person behind the technology. You can access the application by clicking the "Get Prequalified" button at the top of this page or by texting #FPloans to the number 51614. I will review your information and call you to get the details that help determine the best options for you.

I look forward to working with you!

Felicia was always available to answer any questions I had. She was always just a text away which was very reassuring as a first time home buyer. She made the process very easy and understandable. Thank you, Felicia!
