About Sean Kiernan
I'm Sean Kiernan, Loan Consultant at New American Funding. After leaving the Navy in 1995 I moved from Pennsylvania to Carson City with my family. I started a new career in the title insurance business with Northern Nevada Title. Working as a title officer I learned about Northern Nevada’s local counties and all the special circumstances involved with researching and insuring a properties marketability. I then moved into the business development side of the title industry where I formed close relationships with many local real estate professionals. In 2011 I left the title industry and went into home lending with Wells Fargo. At Wells, I was educated in the home mortgage lending process. From Conventional, Jumbo, VA, FHA, USDA and down payment assistance loans I’ve done them all. In 2017 I joined On Q Financial where I met and learned from some of the most knowledgeable people in the lending industry. Today I work with those same folks and others at New American Funding. NAF enables me to help even more people. We can perform all the loans previously mentioned and we can also perform non-qualified mortgage loans. Loans like bank statement loans, investor loans, 1099 loans and many others. As your home mortgage advisor, I am very well qualified to handle any transaction. Give me a call today to talk about your home financing needs.

Pathway to HomeOwnership
Are you Ready?
At New American Funding, we believe that every person deserves a clear path to achieving their dream of homeownership. So, we created the Pathway to Homeownership initiative to alleviate some of your financial worries.
What is the Pathway to
Homeownership Initiative?
The Pathway to Homeownership offers qualified borrowers in select areas up to $8,000 in assistance. These funds are not a loan that needs to be repaid and are available to first-time homebuyers in designated areas.
This program can also potentially be combined with other down payment assistance programs to offer you even more support as you build the life of your dreams.

Purchase trends across the country
With NAF Cash, you can make a competitive, true cash offer that is not contingent on financing and close in little as seven days without having to sell your current home first.
Source: This dataset combines data from Public Records and MLS transactions. The data lists the number of all-cash purchases and the total number of home purchases nationwide in 2023. (Cash purchase defined when a Property Sold record does not have a Mortgage Balance.) Data coverage is limited by available MLS coverage. Certain geographies like Georgia (especially Central GA) and Vermont were impacted by this data availability. Land sales and manufactured (MFR) home sales are excluded from the dataset.
