Your GA Mortgage Xpert. Guaranteed Lowest Rates. Fast Closings. Real Results.
Whether you are buying your first home, tapping into your equity, or building a rental portfolio, I shop 100s of wholesale lenders for you to find you the perfect program at the guaranteed lowest rate.
Why Borrowers Choose Don Bethune
Most loan officers work for one lender and offer one rate sheet. I work as an independent mortgage broker, which means I shop your loan across 100s of wholesale lenders to find the best rate and program for your exact situation. More options. Better pricing. And someone in your corner who has been closing deals for over 35 years.
Access to 100s of Lenders
I am not limited to one rate sheet. I shop your loan across the wholesale market to find the most competitive rate and the right program for your needs.

Xpert Home Lending is a UWM Top 10 national partner. That relationship means faster underwriting, same-day approvals, and a closing timeline that keeps your transaction on track.
35+ Year Track Record

Buying Your First Home Should Feel Exciting.
Not Overwhelming.
I work with a lot of first-time buyers and I know the process can feel intimidating. My job is to make it simple. We will start with a quick pre-approval to understand your buying power, walk through all your options including down payment assistance programs, and stay in constant communication so you always know where you stand.
You will never feel like a number. You will always know what is happening and why.
Free Pre-Approval
Find out exactly how much home you can afford before you start shopping. No cost, no obligation.
Program Matching
We compare FHA, conventional, and down payment assistance options to find the best fit for your income, credit, and goals.
Clear Communication
From application to closing, I keep you informed at every step so nothing surprises you.
Build Your Portfolio Faster With the Right Financing.
DSCR loans, or Debt Service Coverage Ratio, let you qualify based on the rental income the property generates, not your personal tax returns or W-2s. That means no income verification headaches, no waiting on tax transcripts, and a much faster path to closing on your next investment property.
Whether you are buying your first rental or your fifteenth, I can structure financing that fits your investment strategy.
No W-2 Required
Qualify on rental income only. No personal income documentation needed.
1 to 4 Units or More
Single family rentals, small multifamily, and short-term rental properties.
Fast Closings
Streamlined process designed specifically for investors who need to move quickly.
Already Own Property? Put Your Equity to Work.
A HELOC gives you access to your existing home equity as a flexible line of credit. Use it to fund your next down payment, renovate a rental, or cover business expenses, without touching your primary mortgage.
35+ Years of Client Satisfaction. A Career Built on Trust.
I've spent my career at the intersection of lending, deal-structuring, relationship-building, problem-solving, and helping people make some of the most important financial decisions of their lives.
My background includes running an independent mortgage branch, where I developed a deep understanding of the lending process from the inside out. Prior to that, I spent years helping community banks across America provide receivables lending solutions to their commercial customers. I understand business, I understand numbers, and I understand what it means to have someone in your corner who actually picks up the phone.
I joined Xpert Home Lending because of their partnerships with 100s of America's top lenders, their reputation as a UWM Top 10 national broker partner, their competitive rate access, and a team culture that ALWAYS puts clients first.
