Closing in Portland since 2004

I have written loans across Cumberland County long enough to know which lenders fit which streets.

Every major program

FHA, Conventional, VA, Jumbo, Self employed bank statement.

What it actually costs

Median single family hovers around 600,000 in 2026.

What Portland buyers run into

Most of Portland is dense urban infill. Expect knob and tube wiring questions, lead paint disclosures on anything built before 1978, and oil tanks tucked in basements. Underwriters will care. I know which lenders shrug and which ones throw a fit.

Loan limits and programs

Cumberland County FHA loan limit for 2026 is at the standard one unit cap. I will quote the exact figure on your call.

Neighborhoods I work in

West End, East End, Munjoy Hill, Deering, North Deering, Rosemont.
