Working With a Kansas City Mortgage Broker
DreamLux Home Loans is a wholesale mortgage broker serving the Kansas City metro on both sides of the state line. Zach Brown is licensed in Missouri and Kansas, which matters more here than in most metros, because Kansas assesses residential property at 11.5% of appraised value while Missouri assesses at 19%. Same list price, different assessed base, different escrow figure. A broker also shops your file across 280+ wholesale lenders rather than one bank’s overlays, which is what decides jumbo in south Overland Park, self-employed income, and new construction.
Your KC Metro Mortgage Expert
Home Loans Across the Kansas City Metro
The Kansas City metro straddles a state line, and that changes the math. Kansas assesses residential property at 11.5% of appraised value. Missouri assesses at 19%. Same list price, different assessed base, different tax figure inside your monthly payment. Most lenders licensed on only one side will never raise it.
Led by Zach Brown (NMLS #2156538) through NEXA Lending's 280+ wholesale lenders, DreamLux is licensed in both states and works the whole metro. Johnson County's suburbs, Jackson County's walkable downtowns, the Northland across the river, and the fast-growing Cass County construction corridors.

A note on two of these. The home search runs on a third-party listing platform. FSBO.com is an affiliated business, since DreamLux Home Loans is a DBA of NEXA Lending, LLC, and NEXA Lending, LLC and FSBO.com share common ownership. Because of that relationship, referrals between the two may provide a financial or other benefit. You are not required to use FSBO.com to obtain mortgage financing from DreamLux Home Loans, and you are not required to use DreamLux Home Loans to list a property on FSBO.com. There are other providers available and you are free to shop for the best services and rates. Plan pricing is set by FSBO.com and is subject to change.
Which Loan Programs Work Best in the Kansas City Metro?
It changes by county, and sometimes by state. Conventional dominates Johnson County and Lee’s Summit given strong credit profiles and mid to upper price points. FHA is common in Blue Springs and Gardner. VA is strong throughout Jackson and Clay County. Jumbo comes up most in south Overland Park, Leawood and Parkville. USDA still works in parts of Cass and Miami County. Down payment assistance is the one that surprises people: the Kansas statewide KHRC program cannot be used inside Johnson County, so Overland Park, Olathe, Lenexa and Shawnee need a different structure.

Where We Lend in the Kansas City Metro
DreamLux Home Loans is licensed in both Missouri and Kansas, which is the whole point in this metro. Three things change at the state line and most buyers find out about them after they are under contract. Kansas assesses residential property at 11.5% of appraised value while Missouri assesses at 19%, so escrow differs on identical list prices. The Kansas statewide down payment assistance program cannot be used inside Johnson County. And Kansas City levies a 1% earnings tax that affects the take-home figure underwriting works from.
Kansas: Johnson, Wyandotte, Leavenworth and Miami County.
