Message From Founder
I founded DiVita Home Finance in 2007 with the simple goal of offering my clients significantly more home mortgage options compared to their limited local retail banks. We do business with over 40 wholesale lenders across the country, which allows us to offer our clients the right home loan solution that matches their financial goals. Every borrower has a different situation. We listen to their story. And we find them the right home loan that matches their specific needs.

Who We Serve
Over 26 years of lending in California has taught one truth: the borrowers who get the best outcome are rarely the ones with the perfect file. They’re the ones who worked with the right mortgage broker. At DiVita Home Finance, we specialize in loans that banks turn away and in clients who need a strategy, not just a rate.
Move-Up Buyers in Marin County and the Bay Area
If you’re selling one home and buying another simultaneously—juggling contingencies, tight timelines, and competing offers—we’ve done this hundreds of times in this market. We structure bridge financing, handle simultaneous closes, and coordinate the full transaction. Our clients routinely close in 15–21 days when it matters.
Jumbo Loan Borrowers ($807K+)
With median home prices in Marin County above $1.4 million, most of our clients need jumbo financing. We work with dozens of jumbo lenders and can structure loans from $807K to $5M+, including interest-only options, 10% down with no PMI up to $2.5M, and portfolio programs for complex scenarios.
Self-Employed Professionals
Tech founders, physicians, attorneys, real estate investors—if you have complex income, you need a lender who understands it. We originate bank statement loans (12 or 24 months), 1099-only programs, P&L mortgages, and asset depletion financing. Not every client has a W-2, and we don’t expect them to.
Real Estate Investors
From DSCR loans for rental properties to fix-and-flip financing to multi-unit purchases across California, we work with investors at every level. If the deal makes sense on paper, we can usually find the financing.
First-Time Buyers
We help first-time buyers navigate CalHFA Dream For All, FHA loans with 3.5% down, and every first-time buyer program available in California in 2026. We explain every fee, every term, and every option—because an informed borrower makes better decisions.
Seniors and Reverse Mortgage Clients
For homeowners 62 and older, a HECM reverse mortgage can eliminate monthly payments and unlock home equity as tax-free cash flow. We originate federally insured reverse mortgages across California and help you understand whether it fits your retirement plan before you commit to anything.

Frequently Asked Questions — California Mortgage
What types of loans does DiVita Home Finance specialize in?
We specialize in jumbo loans, bank statement loans for self-employed borrowers, FHA and VA loans, DSCR investor loans, CalHFA programs, reverse mortgages (HECM), bridge loans, hard money, and conventional financing for all California property types.
How long does the mortgage approval process take in California?
Most purchase loans close in 21–30 days from application. We close in as few as 15 days when the situation requires it. Pre-approval typically takes 24–48 hours with a complete file.
Can self-employed borrowers qualify for a mortgage in California?
Yes. We offer bank statement loans using 12 or 24 months of deposits, 1099-only programs, P&L statement mortgages, and asset depletion financing. These programs are designed for borrowers whose tax returns don’t reflect their actual income.
What’s the advantage of using a mortgage broker instead of a bank?
A mortgage broker shops your file across dozens of wholesale lenders simultaneously. This produces lower rates, more competitive terms, and more creative solutions than any single bank can offer. You also get a single point of contact who advocates for you throughout the process.
Do you offer jumbo loans in Marin County and the Bay Area?
Yes. We originate jumbo loans from $807,000 to $5 million-plus across Marin, San Francisco, Sonoma, Napa, and the East Bay. Portfolio lenders we work with allow 10% down with no PMI on jumbo loans up to $2.5 million.
Is DiVita Home Finance licensed throughout California?
Yes. Michael DiVita (DRE #01372066, NMLS #241655) and DiVita Home Finance, Inc. (DRE #01818285, NMLS #323700) are licensed to originate mortgage loans throughout the state of California.
