Fred Stringham President of Capital First Mortgage LLC in Fairfield, New Jersey is rapidly approaching two decades of helping his clients achieve their dream of homeownership. Fred’s honest approach coupled with his inherent integrity has resulted in a thriving business that is based largely upon word of mouth from satisfied clients and Realtor partners.
Fred, originally intended to work in the technology field. I have a computer degree, he explains, but I graduated at around the same time as the tech crash. A friend of mine was doing mortgages, so I went an interviewed with him and got the job. The rest is history. It definitely worked out for the best.
There are many reasons for Fred’s continuing success, and he points to two in particular when asked to name some. I pride myself on being honest, he says. Honesty is probably the biggest part of what I do.
Another reason is my availability. Every one of my clients is given my cell phone number, as does my referral source. Even if it’s 10 pm on a weekday, if my client has a question they need answered, I’m available. Fred’s affability and experience level has also played a large role in his and his company’s prosperity. I always take the time and make the effort to make sure everyone feels comfortable with the transaction.
The gratitude Fred’s clients feel for his services are perhaps best illustrated by the number of glowing reviews he has received, including this rave on Zillow.com:
While the financial rewards of his chosen profession are not inconsiderable, Fred derives the most job satisfaction from the more personal side of the mortgage business. I love the interactions I get to have with people, he enthuses.
I particularly love closing days, when you get to see someone’s dreams come true. Their excitement and the smiles on their faces, how elated they are that’s the part I enjoy the most. When he’s not working, Fred enjoys nothing more than spending time with his wife and his four children, engaging in outdoor activities. He also gives back to his community by coaching his children’s sports teams.
