Through workshops taught at employer locations, ZK Mortgage provides counseling to first time home buyers, home owners wanting to refinance, and home owners seeking home equity loans.

Lisa Kelly, president of ZK Mortgage, recently conducted workshops entitled 'Demystifying the Mortgage Process to the Austin law firms Mitchell & Colmenero, LLP and Bruce A. Lipshy. When providing educational information to employees, Kelly outlines strategies, and provides information to help make wise home purchasing decisions, including the benefits of real estate ownership, an overview of the home buying and refinancing process, the criteria for buying a home, complications of credit, income and asset analysis, and information on a variety of loan programs.

Employee benefits are an important part of every company," said Bruce Lipshy. We consider the professional mortgage advice offered by ZK Mortgage as an added benefit to our employees. We value this easy access to education around real estate transactions."

"Homeownership is a major source of wealth creation for individual owners and helps stabilize communities and a well-informed home buyer is better prepared to achieve home ownership," said Kelly. "Were investing in our community by educating local area employees on the underpinnings of mortgage lending, and helping them to achieve the American dream of homeownership."

For most individuals, buying a home is the single largest financial investment they make. It can also be one of the most confusing and stressful. Even for a second or third time buyer, it can be complicated and intimidating, particularly when it comes to getting a mortgage loan. Understanding the mortgage loan processes can relieve much of the stress.
