Portland, OR, October 23, 2026 – Matt Jolivette, President and Mortgage Loan Originator at Associated Mortgage Brokers (NMLS #90661), is focusing his independent mortgage brokerage on homebuyers and homeowners in Portland’s south suburbs, including Lake Oswego, West Linn, Tualatin, Wilsonville, and Tigard.
As an independent mortgage broker, Associated Mortgage Brokers does not lend directly. Instead, Jolivette takes one application and shops it across multiple wholesale lenders, then matches each borrower with the lender whose guidelines and pricing fit their situation. Borrowers keep a single point of contact from application through closing.
That approach is aimed at the kinds of files that are common in the south metro: self-employed borrowers and business owners, buyers with RSU, bonus, or commission income, real estate investors, move-up buyers coordinating a sale and a purchase, and buyers shopping in jumbo price ranges where each lender writes its own rules.
Jolivette is a Marine Corps veteran and holds the Certified Mortgage Consultant (CMC) designation. He works closely with veterans and active-duty service members on VA home loans, including purchases with little or no down payment where eligible, and VA refinance options for current homeowners.
Loan options available through Associated Mortgage Brokers include conventional, FHA, VA, and jumbo purchase loans, refinance and cash-out refinance, bank statement programs for self-employed borrowers, and financing for investment properties. The firm is licensed in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho.
“Most of the buyers I work with south of Portland have a file that needs a little explaining, whether that’s self-employment income, RSUs, or timing the sale of their current home,” said Matt Jolivette. “Being independent means I’m not stuck with one bank’s rulebook. I can find the lender that fits the borrower instead of the other way around.”
Jolivette encourages buyers to get a full pre-approval before touring homes, particularly in competitive neighborhoods where a well-documented offer can make the difference. He also publishes practical mortgage education on YouTube as The Bald Mortgage Broker, where he walks through common questions about pre-approval, loan programs, and the steps from application to closing.
Nothing in this announcement is a commitment to lend. All loans remain subject to credit approval and underwriting.
