About

Steven Martinez has been helping clients navigate their lending options for more than 20 years. He's built a reputation as a leader and teacher—simplifying the lending process for his clients. He believes people make the best financial decisions when they are informed, respected and never rushed.

Steven's people-centered approach is one reason he teaches first-time homebuying classes for families in both English and Spanish. His experience with Affordable & Community Lending (CRA), down payment assistance programs and local nonprofits, as well as his outreach programs for Spanish-speaking homebuyers, are just a few of the ways he's helped expand access to homeownership in the Portland metro area. It's work that's deeply personal in a place he's called home for most of his life.
