Jaime Fernandez

Jaime Fernandez has been working in financial services and mortgage lending since 2012. Over more than 14 years, he has helped borrowers across Arizona, California, and Nevada navigate conventional, government, and alternative loan programs — from first-time home purchases to complex investor and commercial transactions.

Jaime specializes in loan scenarios that fall outside conventional guidelines: self-employed borrowers, real estate investors, DSCR rental-property loans, bridge and hard-money financing, and alternative commercial structures. He is licensed as a Mortgage Loan Originator in Arizona (License #1048500), California, and Nevada, and operates through Nyfty Mortgage LLC (NMLS #2506530).
