About the Oregon Mortgage Blog
Hello, I’m James Adair and welcome to The Oregon Mortgage Blog!
I am an active loan originator employed by Mortgage Trust, Inc. a local correspondent mortgage lender in the Portland metro area.
Please feel free to use this site as a resource for better educating yourself about the mortgage process, and how mortgages and real estate fit into not only your personal finances, but also the larger economic picture of our community, our country, and our world.
I hope that you find the articles fun and thought provoking, and I encourage comments from readers!
I have been a longtime resident of SE Portland and in the mortgage business since 2003. During my years in the industry, I have delivered hundreds of loan packages for my clients in a timely manner, and have found solutions for dozens of financing scenarios.
I am also very active in Portland’s live music community where I can sometimes be spotted playing the bass guitar at various rock and folk venues.
