our mission

Make home financing clearer, faster, and more human so every borrower feels confident from application to closing

about us

Total Mortgage was founded in 1997 by John Walsh, a former loan officer who saw firsthand that the industry could be better. He built a company designed to truly support loan officers and the way they actually work.

What started as a three-person operation has grown into a national lender with more than 450 employees. During the 2007 housing crisis, one principle guided every decision: only approve loans we knew our borrowers could afford. That discipline helped us navigate one of the most challenging times in the industry and it continues to define who we are today.

Our culture is built on support, collaboration, and a willingness to step in for one another. That mindset carries through to how we serve our borrowers. We don’t just quote rates, we problem-solve, educate, and guide people toward responsible paths to homeownership.

As we continue to grow, we remain focused on raising the standard. We invest in our people, processes, and technology, while actively listening to feedback from those doing the work every day.

Zach is very knowelegable and passionate about his profession. Most questions I had as a first time homebuyer he could answer off the top of his head, and any he could not he got back to me within 24 hours. His eagerness to help was a bit offputting at first, but once I realized he was just happy to help and provide all the information, it became a very positive quality. Thank you very much for helping me through the purchase of my first house.

Bobby Noto is the man, he made the process easy and double checked everything before moved to loan processing and underwritting so it was smooth sailing all the way through to the closing!

Mortgage Experience Review I had a wonderful experience working with Total Mortgage, and I am truly grateful for all their help throughout the process of obtaining my mortgage to purchase my coop. Kevin Kearns worked extremely hard to help get my loan approved. He was professional, dedicated, knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure everything moved forward smoothly. Purchasing a home can be stressful, but Kevin’s hard work and commitment made the process much easier for me. I truly appreciate his patience, communication, and determination in helping me achieve my goal of becoming a co-op owner. Thank you, Kevin, and the entire Total Mortgage team, for your outstanding service and support. I would highly recommend Total Mortgage and Kevin Kearns to anyone looking for a mortgage and a team that genuinely cares about their clients!
