Mark Griffin has been originating mortgage loans in Baton Rouge since 2012, working primarily with first-time buyers, veterans, and rural buyers. Mark is a Loan Officer at Synergy One Lending, NMLS #1907235, NMLS #285621, licensed to serve clients in Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Arkansas, Florida, and South Carolina.
Mark’s approach centers on finding a path forward for clients who come in with credit challenges. In one case, he worked through a client’s credit history to identify a way to get them the financing they needed to get back on track, rather than turning them away.
What clients thank Mark for most is being kept informed throughout the loan process. His advice to anyone starting the homebuying journey is simple: connect with a loan officer early so there’s time to build a plan before you start shopping.
Mark also encourages clients to be careful with their spending in the months leading up to a purchase, since unnecessary spending can affect what they qualify for or how smoothly the loan closes.
A Baton Rouge native, Mark spends his downtime shooting pool and working out, with Tiger Stadium among his favorite local spots on game day.
