We all deserve financial and housing stability, no matter who and where we are!
I'm Shellie A. Carter, a cross-licensed real estate professional dedicated to helping you build wealth through real estate. Owning property is just the beginning—the real power lies in monetizing it and creating multiple streams of income for lasting financial success.
My mission is to empower buyers across America to find, fund, and protect the future of their dreams by turning real estate into a wealth-building tool. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer, an investor, or looking to maximize your property's potential, I’ll help you unlock new income opportunities and achieve financial freedom.
Let’s make your property work for you!
Whether you're buying, investing, or exploring financing options, we’re here to guide you. Book a consultation today for personalized advice and a strategy tailored to your goals!
Applying for a mortgage doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, investor, or looking to refinance, the application process starts with a simple step: getting pre-approved. This gives you a clear picture of what you qualify for and what programs may be available to you.
We’ll guide you through the paperwork, help you understand your credit and income requirements, and match you with the right loan based on your goals. From application to closing, we keep things transparent, supportive, and focused on helping you succeed. If you're ready to get started, the first step is just a click away.
No Money Down. No Closing Costs. Real Program.
If you're ready to buy a home with little to no out-of-pocket costs, this program could be the perfect fit. Our No Down Payment, No Closing Costs option is available to qualified buyers with a minimum 620 FICO score, and follows all standard FHA loan guidelines.
We also have flexible purchase options for traditional homebuyers starting at a 500 FICO score, and for investors with a 620 FICO score or higher. Whether you’re purchasing your first home or adding to your portfolio, we’ll help you explore the best path forward.
You should book a free consultation; or, scroll down to complete the pre-approval form.
Refinancing your home can be a smart move whether you're looking to lower your interest rate, reduce your monthly payment, eliminate mortgage insurance, or pull cash out for renovations, debt consolidation, or new investments.
We offer a wide range of refinance options tailored to fit your needs and loan type.
If you currently have an FHA loan, the FHA Streamline Refinance allows you to refinance with minimal documentation and no appraisal in many cases. VA homeowners may qualify for the VA IRRRL, a simplified refinance with reduced paperwork and low closing costs.
For those in rural areas, the USDA Streamlined Assist program can help lower your payment without needing a new appraisal or credit review.
Looking to access the equity in your home? Cash-out refinance options are available for primary residences, second homes, and even investment properties, giving you the flexibility to leverage your real estate for bigger financial goals.
Whether you're refinancing to save, invest, or simply improve your terms, we’ll guide you through the best options for your specific situation.
Owning a home isn’t just about stability — it can also be a powerful income-generating asset.
Many homeowners are turning their properties into group homes, both licensed and unlicensed, creating consistent monthly income while providing much-needed housing in their communities. Others are launching small, home-based businesses right from their primary residence, building sustainable income with minimal overhead.
Whether you're interested in creating a group home for seniors, adults with disabilities, or transitional housing, we offer affordable mentorship and guidance to help you launch, operate, and grow with confidence. Your home has the potential to do more than house your family — it can fund your future.!
I have positioned myself with Nationwide organizations so that I can meet the needs of families and entrepreneurs coast to coast.
