At the Main branch, in the lending wing, there sits an office where the door is always open and a smile is always present. Ken has been with Alive as our Mortgage Officer in lending for 6 years! When Ken is not at home with his family, coaching soccer with his sons, or attending church, he is here at Alive assisting our members in buying their next home.

Recently Ken has been heading up rolling out the Down Payment Assistance Program for our members. This is an exciting program where a first time home buyer can qualify for up to $50,000 of financial aid towards a down payment or closing costs. This is not the only program Ken engages with to better assist our members. Ken is also well versed in FHA, VA, and even USDA Rural Loans.

On our home website, we host a page specifically aimed at educating members on the mortgage process. However, we live in a digital age where short videos, engaging social pages, and podcasts are the prefered resources for information so leadership at Alive has worked with Ken to create “Ask Ken”.

Ask Ken is an interactive Facebook Group designed to provide guidance for anyone on their home buying journey. On the page, Ken answers questions, interacts directly with the community, and shares even more resources for future home buyers. Ask Ken is a private group but to help spread the word, we would appreciate if you join the group by searching “Ask Ken! Your path to homeownership” on your Facebook. You can share the group and invite your friends and family who would benefit from this fun and free resource.

Stay tuned for upcoming events with Ask Ken, and other exciting new digital resources for our members.
