Mortgage Loan Officer in Helotes
Texas Real Estate Sales Agent #454749, AXEN Realty LLC · Senior Loan Officer, NMLS ID #877741, NEXA Mortgage, LLC
I am Patrick Kevin Fagan, a mortgage loan officer who works with buyers in Helotes and the surrounding Texas Hill Country. I hold a Texas real estate sales license too, so I am licensed for both the financing and the home purchase.
My focus is first-time homebuyers. I help buyers compare VA, FHA, and conventional loans and pair them with Texas down payment assistance. Loan origination is available statewide across Texas.
Financing Helotes Homes
Hill Country Feel, Financing That Fits
Helotes is a rare mix: a small-town Main Street with community events, new-construction communities on the edges, and established homes on larger lots that a growing family can grow into. Buyers here are often first-timers trading up from an apartment, or families who want more space without leaving San Antonio\u2019s northwest side.
As both a loan officer and a Texas real estate sales agent, I connect the financing to the realities of this market, including Texas down payment assistance for first-timers, VA benefits for veterans, and the well, septic, and flood questions that come with larger lots on the fringes.
How I Help Helotes Buyers
- Pre-approval built around the real insurance, escrow, and HOA dues picture.
- VA, FHA, and conventional options matched to the property and your goals.
- Texas down payment assistance applied to reduce cash to close.
- New construction financing compared against the builder’s preferred lender.
- Wells, septic, and flood zone checks before you write an offer.
Learn Before You Buy
The Mortgage Patriot on YouTube
I built my YouTube channel, The Mortgage Patriot, to teach buyers how to lower interest rates, minimize cash to close, and find down payment assistance. Every video is a plain-English walkthrough of the exact questions Helotes and Texas buyers ask.
Subscribe and watch a few episodes before you tour homes. You will walk into the process knowing what pre-approval really means, what the loan estimate is telling you, and what to ask at every step.

New Construction and Builder Financing
Newer communities are opening along Helotes’ edges, and builder incentives can look great on paper. I compare the builder’s preferred lender offer against an independent quote so you know the real cost of each incentive.

Veterans use the VA loan to buy in Helotes and across the Hill Country. I explain VA eligibility, the funding fee, and how a VA offer competes, and I keep the loan on track when your move date is fixed.

Texas down payment assistance programs change what a first-time buyer brings to closing. I check current program fit against your income and purchase price and show how DPA pairs with FHA, conventional, and VA loans.

Larger lots on the Helotes fringes can mean private wells and septic systems, and flood zone questions come up on a parcel-by-parcel basis. These are address-based details I check before you fall in love with a property.
