John Gambrel

As a proud Youngstown native and Ohio State University graduate, I bring more than just mortgage expertise to the table - I offer deep-rooted knowledge of Ohio's real estate landscape. This local insight, combined with my specialization in first-time homebuyers, VA loans, and manufactured homes, allows me to provide solutions that are both financially sound and tailored to our community's unique needs.

When I’m not diving into loan scenarios or decoding FHA guidelines, you’ll find me in my favorite role: a proud Girl Dad to two fierce daughters. Between cheer competitions, track meets, and soccer games, I’ve mastered the art of sideline coaching (and snack-duty diplomacy). Their hustle inspires mine—because whether it’s securing a client’s dream home or cheering for a last-minute goal, I’m all in.

What sets me apart? I listen first, then problem-solve. VA loan? Manufactured home? "I-have-no-idea-where-to-start"? Let’s tackle it together—with transparency, creativity, and maybe a laugh or two along the way. After all, the journey to "home" should feel as rewarding as the destination.
