About Us

A South Carolina-based Non-QM Lender

After being in the private lending sector since 2006, we saw a need to find more creative solutions to complex lending situations. Not everyone applying for a mortgage fits into a one-size-fits-all program. Therefore, we don’t try to simply “push” clients into something that doesn’t appropriately fit their needs.

Where Others See Roadblocks - We Find Paths

Where other lenders find roadblocks, we find responsible pathways by adjusting parameters that make it possible to take on mortgage applications that would be turned away by larger lenders.

Our goal is to provide loans to non-traditional borrowers by finding solutions that are beneficial to everyone.

Lending Exclusively in South Carolina

HomeSpring Mortgage is a South Carolina-based direct portfolio lender. We do not broker any loans. We lend exclusively in South Carolina for residential and commercial properties.

HomeSpring is a full-service, non-QM lender that partners with mortgage professionals working in the non-government mortgage sector by making decisions that focus on a borrower’s ability to repay.

Testimonials

Another couple weeks and we will have been in our new house 1 full year! What a journey – and thanks to you and HomeSpring it didn’t hurt too much, once I found you! Being Self-employed with some “past credit challenges” put me right into your preferred client range. Before you, we went through a multiple-months long, excruciating experience with another lender that didn’t work for us. Once we found you, the approval process was quick and painless! We had Schumacher Homes build our home and they told me your company was the quickest, easiest to work with and most enjoyable lender they have worked with… They’re nationwide and I believe they built about 200 homes in the Lowcountry last year. To underscore your ease of use… we refinanced the house after 6 months with a well-known national bank. What a pain in the butt! Took 3 months, we had to resubmit our financials every month and we had to work hard to get the refinance! Thank God that’s over!! Rest assured I’ll mention Chris Lathbury and HomeSpring Mortgage to anyone I meet who may need you! If you need a reference, feel free to pass on my name and I will sing your praises!! Thanks for all your work and help in making such a potentially stressful process go so well!

I want to say thank you to Chris Lathbury and the entire team at HomeSpring Mortgage for being so wonderful and gracious to me during the entire application, underwriting and funding process for the purchase of my home. It didn’t stop there Chris was very active in servicing the loan after funding. Whenever I would reach out with a question or had a concern Chris would always return my email or call within 24 hours max. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your help in accommodating the loan process to align with my relocation and new job appointment. It has been a pleasure to work with all of you! I highly recommend Home Spring Mortgage for all your real estate loan needs, you will not regret it.  
Firstly, it is a major task to apply for and be approved for a mortgage and when going through that process you want a mortgage lender that understands your specific needs and how to make that a reality. HomeSpring Mortgage is that company. After dealing with several lenders and their numerous delays I found Chris and HomeSpring. They were professional, communicative, truthful and a company that gets the job done. HomeSpring is the way to go when looking to finance your home. Solutions is what they are about.

My clients and I found Chris after another lender let us down. He listened to us, looked over our contract, and even spoke with the seller of the home my client’s were purchasing to help salvage the deal. With an incredibly tight timeline, and tons of emotions, Chris was the true hero in this transaction and made it happen for us. Words truly do not express the level of gratitude I feel for how hard he worked for us. To say he went above and beyond is an understatement. This was my first time working with Chris, and the person who referred me to him told me he has a heart of gold, and he did an outstanding job living up to that reputation. He will be my go-to for these unique financing situations from now on!

Hey Norb – We just closed and I just wanted to reach out and sincerely thank you, Chris, and HomeSpring Mortgage for working with us on this. As you can imagine, we’ve had a very difficult time getting back in the good graces of lenders, especially on this scale, and needed a chance, and ya’ll gave us that. We’re excited about being able to do our renovation project now, when only a month or two ago it was looking highly unlikely. Also, I appreciate the timeliness and level of communication that ya’ll showed throughout the whole process, which made everything run smoothly. Our intentions are to not stick around at the higher rate for the long term, as I’m sure you can understand, when hopefully rates come down at some point and our credit profile should continue to improve. Whenever that time comes, we will most certainly work with y’all again to hopefully capture a lower rate. Thanks again!
