At the Shoemaker Loan Team, we believe a mortgage should come with more than an interest rate and a stack of paperwork. It should come with honest advice, clear communication, and a team that genuinely looks out for you.
I’m Doug Shoemaker, a Certified Mortgage Advisor with more than 25 years of experience helping people purchase and refinance homes. My role is to help clients understand the mortgage market, evaluate their options, and make confident decisions based on their individual goals—not pressure them into a one-size-fits-all loan.
Kathie and I work together to create a mortgage experience that feels personal and well organized. I provide the mortgage education, personalized market analysis, and loan strategy, while Kathie keeps clients informed with consistent updates throughout the process. Our clients frequently tell us that our communication helped them feel comfortable, prepared, and confident from application through closing.
We are also committed to remaining a resource long after the loan is complete. Whether a past client has a question about the market, wants to review a refinancing opportunity, or needs the name of a trusted local professional, we want them to know they can always call us. That is why so many of our clients return for their next home purchase or refinance and refer their friends and family to us.
The hero community is especially close to our hearts. We are honored to serve military members, law enforcement officers, firefighters, and the families who support them. Our appreciation for these men and women extends far beyond mortgages. It inspired the creation of The H.O.M.E. Foundation and our continued work to make life more affordable for local heroes, recognize their service, and support the charitable organizations that care for them.
For Kathie and me, this is about more than closing loans. It is about educating people, reducing their stress, protecting their interests, and building relationships that last long after closing day.
