Clay Collins
Senior Loan Officer

Welcome to my website.  As an experienced mortgage loan originator, I will work with you to find the best loan to fit your needs. By combining the best of state of the art secure digital tools and good old-fashioned phone or in person communication we will make it a quick, educational experience. I don’t want to just close a loan for you, but to make a lifetime connection.

I have over 36 years of residential mortgage lending experience in Indian River County, Florida and am approaching 4,000 closed home loans during my career.  I have been a resident of Vero Beach, Florida since July of 1973 when my family moved from the Chicago area.  I graduated from Vero Beach High School in 1976, the University of Florida in 1980 with a Bachelor in Science of Business Administration, and the Roy E. Crummer School of Business at Rollins College with a Master of Business Administration in 1983.  Upon returning to Vero Beach with my wife Jenae, a Vero Beach native, I went into the field of banking.  Early in my career I found that I enjoyed providing mortgage financing in connection with the purchase, refinancing, or construction of homes.  I decided at that time to work "borrower's" and "real estate agent's" hours and not "banker's" hours.  As a result, I am always available after hours and on weekends to meet or speak with potential and current borrowers.  My mission has been to provide borrowers , no matter what the loan size, with "Concierge" level service.
