Your Local CrossCountry Mortgage Loan Officer
Brandon Coll
I’ll be with you every step of the way
Hi, i’m Brandon, and I’m excited to help you unlock the doors to your dream home! As SVP of Mortgage Lending at our Northbrook, IL branch, I’m proud to offer the resources of America’s #1 Retail Mortgage Lender to guide you on your journey to homeownership.
I’ve been in the mortgage business for 22 years, earning a reputation for being transparent, honest, and timely with my transactions. I’m sought after by real estate agents, attorneys, financial planners, and clients for advice on obtaining some of the most diverse mortgage products in the industry. Buying or refinancing a home is one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll make, and great advice is paramount for setting yourself up for long-term success.
I’ve consistently come through time and time again when other’s can’t. I’ve made a name for myself in the self-employed and multiple-property owner markets, where documentation can be challenging. My team and I are here to identify any issues from the start and guide you to the right loan program.

Frequently asked questions
-
Refinancing costs typically range from 2% to 6% of the loan amount and include fees such as appraisal, title insurance, and closing costs. Factors like your loan type, location, and credit score can significantly impact these expenses. Our team can help to provide strategies that can help minimize costs.
-
To determine how much home you can afford, you’ll want to assess your financial situation. This includes your income, expenses, and debt-to-income ratio, to ensure your mortgage fits comfortably within your budget. A general guideline is to spend no more than 28% of your gross monthly income on housing costs and 36% on total debt.
-
A good credit score typically starts at 620 for conventional loans, while FHA and VA loans may accept scores as low as 500, though higher scores offer better terms. A strong credit score can help you secure lower interest rates, saving you significant money over the life of a home loan.
-
A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) is a revolving line of credit that allows homeowners to borrow against the equity in their home. HELOCs function like a credit card, giving access to funds up to a set limit, which can be used for expenses like renovations or debt consolidation. You only pay interest on the amount you borrow, and the repayment terms typically include a draw period followed by a repayment period.
-
To calculate your mortgage payments, start with your loan amount, interest rate, and loan term. Your payment will depend on the interest charged over time and the repayment schedule. You can use a monthly mortgage payment calculator or connect with us to learn more.
