Stephen Friree

Mortgage Loan Originator, NMLS# 282094

Bio

Stephen Friree launched his mortgage career in Beverly Hills, CA, circa 2005, under the tutelage of some of the top originators in the country. There he honed his sales skills by offering the highest level of service, while using the perseverance and determination he learned while serving in the US Marines, to stand out in a world of go-getters.

These traits became essential tools when he and his family relocated to Boston and Stephen had to reestablish himself. His commitment to offering the best terms brought in new clients, his high level of service kept them coming back, and his robust referral rate has kept him rising in the sales ranks.

Stephen currently lives in Newton MA with his wife and son. He loves getting ahead physically too: hiking, running, and biking are three of his favorite activities. The occasional 5k and triathlon keep him honest about how well he is improving. He has a Bachelor’s degree in Business Management from Northeastern University and an MBA from Babson College (FW Olin Graduate School of Business).

Some of the financing options available are:

  • Conventional/conforming loans
  • Jumbo loans
  • Mass Housing loans (and other first time buyer programs)
  • FHA loans
  • VA loans (Stephen served in the US Marines, and takes great pride in helping his fellow veterans.)
  • Loans for non-warrantable condos
  • Portfolio loans
  • Home equity lines (HELOC) and second mortgages
  • Bridge loans
  • Commercial, SBA and business financing

Stephen Friree could not have been more attentive in making sure our loan was processed as quickly as possible and we closed on schedule. This was very important to us as the Seller desired a quick closing and we were eager to accommodate such. Our experience with Leader was extremely positive and everything went according to schedule.
