Kerwin Lyon – Guild Mortgage - Seattle
The Commission’s down payment assistance programs are a great tool to maximize financing options for first time home buyers.

Knowing that there are ways to overcome a large down payment that some loan programs require, I can assist home buyers achieve their goals of home ownership earlier than they would have expected. I have been in the mortgage industry for over 20 years and have enjoyed giving people the opportunity to check off "Washington Home Owner" from their bucket list every year.
