Kurt has guided thousands of happy families through some of the most tumultuous real estate markets in history and helped them find the perfect loan for their dream house.

Starting in 2005, Kurt joined Solstice Capital. He was the top producer in both units and loan volume for the entire company. Recognized as a rising star, Kurt was recruited in 2009 by loanDepot, where he built one of the company's top-producing sales teams. Kurt went on to work for Home Financing Inc. as an associate broker, who led the company in both total units and funded loan volume from 2012 to 2014.

2014 was a pinnacle year for Kurt's mortgage career as he decided to launch his own full-service mortgage company, AdvantageFirst Lending Inc. After 10 years of experience in the industry, he had the perfect platform to branch out on his own. Kurt's leadership, expertise, dedication, and professional network have allowed him to create a first-class team of licensed Mortgage Bankers. Kurt has instilled his values of "doing the right thing" and "the consumer comes first" into the core of his everyday business.

Outside of business, Kurt is married to the love of his life, Randi. They are the fortunate parents of three amazing boys; Noah, Isaac and Cohen (and a pretty brown Boxer named June). Kurt is an avid mountain biker and runner and completed his first triathlon in 2017. He's a football fanatic and plays in 2-3 fantasy football leagues annually. He's a sushi connoisseur and always orders his fries "Animal Style" at In-n-Out. Above everything else, Kurt's main priority is always being the best husband and father to his loving family.
