As a minister, pastor, or missionary, your work touches lives and builds communities. At HERO Mortgage, we’re honored to support your mission by offering mortgage solutions that are simple, efficient, and tailored to your calling. With exclusive benefits like an appraisal credit at closing, fast approvals, and faith-based giving, we’re here to serve you as you’ve served others.
Whether you’re a pastor, missionary, or church leader, HERO Mortgage offers home financing designed to meet the specific needs of ministry professionals.
We keep things efficient and clear, so your mortgage process is simple and stress-free—most loans close in 30 days or less.
As a token of our appreciation, you’ll receive up to $750 in credit to cover your appraisal fee when your loan closes.
Already own a home? HERO Mortgage offers refinancing solutions to lower your rate, reduce payments, or tap into your home equity.
Every mortgage through HERO helps fund a nonprofit that supports ministry work, so your loan gives back to your community.
We’ll walk you through your options, explain every step, and help you choose the right loan for your mission and goals.
When my children were young, I had the privilege of working for an organization that served some of the world’s most vulnerable communities. We helped provide clean water, medical care, schools, and small business support in areas that needed it most. I traveled extensively, raising funds for these life-changing projects. While it was incredibly fulfilling work, the time away eventually took a toll on my family.
I’ve been an ordained minister since 1991, and I understand both the joys and sacrifices that come with serving others. Pastors, missionaries, clergy, churches, and ministry leaders carry out vital work that is too often undervalued and overlooked.
This program was created to honor you—your faith, your service, and the impact you make. Thank you for everything you do.
