A little more about me.
I am going to take the time to explain a lot of details to borrowers so they can be comfortable with the process.
Mike Poole has that relaxed, likeable personality that instantly puts his clients at ease. Residing in a rural area since the early 80s, he has a solid knowledge of USDA loans and has become a resource for those less experienced in rural properties. In addition to USDA, he is an expert in VA, Conventional and FHA loans and Refinance.
When Mike Poole lost his job with Newport News Shipbuilding, he was left without work for the first time in 24 years. Citing his significant qualities, his wife suggested he go into the mortgage industry, “You like teaching, you like talking with people and you are good with numbers.” After talking with his brother-in-law who had a long career in mortgage, Mike made the leap in 2005. Five years later he came to Atlantic Bay and has never looked back. He has helped hundreds of first time home buyers and veterans purchase homes.
Mike says, “I like to make people laugh to put them at ease. I try to help them feel that this is not rocket science; they just need to have it explained to them. I spend a lot of time explaining how annual percentage rate (APR) works. One of my proudest moments is when an attorney asked my 23-year old client if she knew what APR was during a closing. When she explained it to him, the attorney replied, ‘I guess Mike taught you that’.”
When not helping clients buy homes, Mike enjoys spending time with his family and volunteering for three churches.
