We wanted a townhome in Miles City and weren't sure if it would qualify for FHA. Tommy at Oxford checked everything and confirmed we were good to go. 3.5% down, smooth process, and Tommy handled the HOA documentation without us having to chase anything down. Easy experience.

Thought the FHA process would take forever. Shawn at Oxford had us pre approved in a day and closing in under 40 days in Havre. 3.5% down, competitive rate, and a timeline that worked with our schedule. Shawn proved that thorough doesn't have to mean slow.

Our lease was ending and we needed to move fast. Matt at Oxford got our FHA approval done quickly and we closed on our Kalispell home before the lease ran out. 3.5% down, no gap in housing, and a payment that works. Matt understood the urgency and made it happen.

A friend in Bozeman told me to call Hahna at Oxford when I mentioned we wanted to buy. Best referral I've ever gotten. FHA program, low down payment, and Hahna walked us through everything. Closed without a single complication. Already passed Hahna's name to two other friends.

Our realtor specifically recommended Ian at Oxford for FHA purchases. Now I understand why. Ian knew the program inside and out, got us pre approved fast, and our Butte offer was accepted immediately because the seller trusted Oxford's reputation. 3.5% down and a great experience.

My sister bought through Oxford last year and wouldn't stop talking about it. Called Corey about our own Great Falls purchase and had the same great experience. FHA loan, 3.5% down, closed on schedule. Now I'm the one who won't stop talking about Oxford to everyone I know.

Chris at Oxford answered every question about our Missoula FHA purchase. And there were many. Down payment requirements, mortgage insurance details, closing cost estimates, timelines. Nothing was left vague. By closing day I felt more informed about mortgages than most people I know.

The FHA process felt straightforward because Carlton at Oxford made it that way. Pre approval was fast, the document checklist was clear, and there were no last minute scrambles on our Billings purchase. Carlton ran a tight ship and we benefited from it. 3.5% down, smooth closing.

Get Your Mortgage Answers
Talk with a Mortgage Expert
How do I know what type of mortgage is best for me?

The best mortgage depends on your financial goals, budget, and future plans. First-time buyers often compare FHA or conventional loans, while veterans may qualify for VA mortgage programs. A trusted lender will guide you through options, showing which mortgage fits your income, credit, and long-term goals.

Should I wait for mortgage rates to drop before applying?

Waiting for lower mortgage rates can feel tempting, but timing the market is unpredictable. A smart approach is to apply when a mortgage fits your budget and goals today. You can always refinance later if rates improve, ensuring you do not miss opportunities to move forward.

Can I use a mortgage to consolidate debt or free up monthly cash flow?

Yes. A mortgage refinance or cash-out option can help consolidate high-interest debt and lower overall payments. By using your home’s equity, the right mortgage strategy may free up monthly cash flow, reduce financial stress, and create more room in your budget for future goals.

What does a mortgage pre-approval actually mean?

A mortgage pre-approval is a lender’s review of your income, credit, and debts to estimate how much you can borrow. It shows sellers you are a serious buyer and gives you a clear budget range. Pre-approval strengthens your position and makes the mortgage process smoother from the start.

How much mortgage can I realistically afford each month?

The amount of mortgage you can afford depends on your income, debts, credit, and lifestyle goals. Lenders often suggest keeping your mortgage payment within 28 to 31 percent of monthly income. Using a mortgage calculator helps estimate payments and gives a clearer picture of what fits your budget.

Can I switch mortgage lenders mid-process if I feel unsupported?

Yes. You can switch mortgage lenders during the process if you feel communication or support is lacking. While it may cause delays, a better mortgage experience can save stress and money long term. Always review fees and timelines before moving your application to a new mortgage lender.

Is it possible to get a mortgage if I am self-employed or have variable income?

Yes! You can qualify for a mortgage if you are self-employed or earn variable income, but lenders may require extra documentation. Bank statements, tax returns, and proof of steady cash flow help show stability. With the right mortgage program, self-employed borrowers can secure financing confidently.

Still have a question?
No problem. Let’s just talk.
