I have been originating mortgages for the past 10 years. Prior to being on the mortgage side of the business I was a Sales Manager on the Real Estate side of the business. So I know what is important to the clients on all sides of the transaction. Outside of work I am married, have 2 children (11,8) and 2 dogs (Rescue & Silver Lab). I am heavily involved in coaching and running many of my children's activities. When I do have free time, it is spent hiking with my family (dogs included) and playing basketball.

Ken Csehak’s mortgage industry career spans more than 25 years, including key roles in origination, management, and operations. During his time working at banks, mortgage companies, and a small mortgage brokerage, he acquired a wealth of knowledge and expertise. He attributes his sustained success to an unwavering focus on customer service. “Early in my career I was coached on the value of ‘Customer Committed Service’, a business belief that loan officers are obligated to always act in the client’s best interests. I have held that philosophy ever since. When clients tell others that I’m the guy to see for a mortgage, that is the best compliment I can receive,” stated Ken. Ken works with all types of borrowers, from first-time homebuyers to more seasoned clients. Ken has two sons in college, and when not working he enjoys going on hikes and attending professional sporting events with his family.
