About

James Werner
NMLS ID#137331

I apply the same self-discipline and basic leadership skills I learned in the Marine Corps to all of my endeavors. Through my education, I gained classically influenced skills and creative methods of problem solving that help me be successful. As a manager, I strive to foster growth and development of the individuals in my organization and am always looking for the most effective work methods and the best tools, so that our mortgage consultants can best serve their clients. I am always actively hiring individuals to work at my branch, so if you or someone you know is looking to work for one of the best mortgage companies in the industry and they live in Indiana, contact me.

We specialize in first-time buyer programs, including FHA, VA, and USDA Rural Housing. We are one of the few Fannie Mae-approved HomePath Mortgage and Renovation Mortgage lenders… ask me about the benefits!

As a privately-owned, triple eagle lender, Platinum has the ability to cut out the middleman and fund loans others cannot. We have exclusive programs, like the FHA Dream Loan and FHA loans down to 580 FICO scores. In addition, our clients have access to great rates from a national direct lender and do not have to give up personalized, small-town service.
