E08: Looking to finance a luxury home? Chris Musto reveals Guaranteed Rate’s variety of Jumbo Loans

In this episode, Nicole Saunches interviews Chris Musto, Vice President of Mortgage Lending with Guaranteed Rate. When it comes to luxury homes, Guaranteed Rate is the #1 lender for jumbo loans and Coastal Properties Group, Christie’s International Real Estate is the #1 brokerage in Pinellas County for luxury sales, in particular waterfront sales and properties over $1M -- which makes the two a perfect pairing.  

Chris also provides his top 3 tips for buyers.  Additionally, Nicole and Chris also talk about St. Pete and the growth the city is experiencing, how recent tax changes have increased migration to Florida as well as whether or not new international flights at Tampa International Airport will impact the makeup of foreign buyers in the Tampa Bay area.
