Sponsor Note: $10 MGoGift Card & Free Tickets from HomeSure Lending

[Ed-Seth: As you're probably aware, MGoBlog is pretty selective with how we choose which advertisers we partner with. The first thing we look for is whether they share our commitment to ethics and serving their customers/our readers.

Having bought a home recently, when Matt explained what he did, amazingly I understood it, and also understood how much of a positive departure it was from the typical turnkey stuff. I am very proud to introduce him as a sponsor of our site, and very happy that he has to be the one to explain what he does to you. Link to his site and the deal is here: http://www.homesurelending.com/go/mgoblog]

Note: He only serves in-state clients; for out-of-staters the best he can do is a referral.

Hey MGoBlog, this is bigdemo, aka Matt Demorest: sponsor guy.

You've probably been seeing my ads (like the one at right) on the site the last few weeks. The guys gave me an opportunity to explain who I am and how I do mortgages.

Also get a $10 MGoStore gift card just for talking to him.

I worked at two really large local mortgage companies and I was really hoping to do things a little differently. I started my own mortgage company with the idea of being a consultant rather than a simple broker. My slogan is simple mortgage guidance. I care about making sure my clients are well informed, that the mortgage process is simple and easy, and that their are no surprises. The other big difference is I can shop the mortgage to different underwriters, rather than having to work with one lender.

As a daily reader of MGoBlog for the last 7 years I could think of no better place to partner with.  Not only do I have the same obsessive love for Michigan athletics as those who I may end up working with, but as small business based in Royal Oak I also live and work near a large percentage of the readership.

I do both purchase and refinance mortgages and offer Conventional, FHA, VA, USDA loans.  My rates are very competitive and my turn times are very fast.  If I can help you that is great, if I cannot you will know why and leave our call with a plan for the future.

Bottom line is, I would love to see if you can save money through a refinance by lowering your rate, eliminating mortgage insurance, etc.  Or to help you get pre-approved to buy a home.  I don't charge anything to see where we stand (like some other places) and I never pressure anyone.

To receive the $10 MGoStore Gift Card you just need to go here and submit your contact info.  As long as we have a 5-10 minute preliminary phone call within one week, you will get a code emailed to you by the staff at MGoBlog.

To get a pair of free tickets you just need to close and loan with us. You choose the sport and we will choose the game.

Don’t worry, it won’t be THE HORROR II or hoops versus Concordia.  If you don’t need the tickets, we will give you a $100 gift card  to the Ann Arbor restaurant of your choosing (that is a lot of BTBs). Simple as that.
