About Peter Martino
I began my mortgage career in 1987 after my mother in law purchased her first home. I witnessed how much joy she felt when her loan officer told her she was approved, and thought to myself that's a great way to affect a person's life. I left the restaurant business and went to work for that loan officer's company 30 days later. Customer service, communication and integrity have been the path to my success. I have won customer service and production awards, and it's all attributable to building strong relationships in the real estate community, and providing great service consistently. I take care of people. I attended the University of Massachusetts, where I earned my bachelor's degree and played four years of lacrosse. My wife an I are married 30 years and we have 3 children. We met at UMass.

This is NOT a mortgage loan approval or commitment to lend.
The actual fees, costs, and monthly payment on your specific loan transaction may
vary, and may include city, county, or other additional fees and costs. Mortgage rates
are offered exclusively through Rate, Inc. and are subject to change without
notice. The payment amount does not include homeowners' insurance, flood insurance
(if applicable), or property taxes that must be paid in addition to your loan payment.
The displayed Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is a measure of the cost to borrow money
expressed as a yearly percentage. For mortgage loans, excluding home equity lines of
credit, it includes the interest rate plus other charges or fees (such as mortgage
insurance, discount points, and origination charges). These mortgage rates are based
upon a variety of assumptions and conditions, which include a consumer credit score
that may be higher or lower than your individual credit score. Your loan's interest
rate will depend upon the specific characteristics of your loan transaction and your
credit history up to the time of closing. Refinancing may cause finance charges to be
higher over the life of the loan. Rate, Inc. has no affiliation
with the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, the US Department of Veterans
Affairs, the Nevada Department of Veterans Services, the US Department of Agriculture,
or any other government agency.
