Advanced Financial Services
Advanced Financial Services is a residential mortgage lender and a pioneer in alternative financing. For more than two decades, AFS has helped homeowners across the country reach their financial goals by unlocking the hidden equity in their homes, eliminating their high interest debt and providing them with the extra spending money they need.
When AFS was established in 1983, the company was little more than four telephones, a postage meter and a typewriter. The hours were long and hard, but even then, their objective was clear: to build a company that treated its clients with dignity and respect.
For twenty years, AFS has helped more than 70,000 individuals and their families finance their homes and other residential properties. In 2005 alone, their acclaimed mortgage specialists helped arrange more than $1 billion in mortgage loans. AFS is an approved lender for Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and HUD, and is an active member in the Mortgage Banker's Association of America and the National Home Equity Mortgage Association.
From day one, AFS's commitment has always remained the same: to provide personalized, caring service to each and every one of their customers. When customers call AFS, they speak with a knowledgeable loan specialist who listens to their specific needs and goals — someone they can trust to provide them with recommendations made with their best interests in mind. We understand that each person is different, and we want to provide them with a loan program tailored to their unique situation.
To ensure the highest quality service, AFS uses a team-oriented approach in which their loan specialists work together to provide customized loan solutions and superior customer service. Each step of the way, customers appreciate AFS's no pressure, informative approach to the loan process. When customers need answers, advice or guidance, they can be sure AFS will respond with rapid, professional and thoughtful service
At AFS, they believe it's extremely important to give back to the communities where their customers and employees live and work. During the past several years, AFS has set aside 10 percent of its pre-tax income for charitable giving, with special emphasis toward charities benefiting children. Local, national and international organizations have all benefited from AFS donations. In 2003, AFS introduced another charitable commitment in which the company matches, dollar for dollar, each employee's contribution to a charitable foundation.
