Working With a St. Louis Mortgage Broker
DreamLux Home Loans is a wholesale mortgage broker serving the St. Louis metro, including St. Louis County, the City of St. Louis, and St. Charles County. As a broker rather than a bank, Zach Brown places files across 280+ wholesale lenders instead of a single guideline set. In this metro that difference shows up most on three files: jumbo qualification in West County above the conforming limit, physician loans for residents and attendings at BJC and Mercy, and DSCR financing that qualifies city rental properties on rent rather than personal income.

Home Loans Across the St. Louis Metro
The St. Louis metro covers three very different housing markets. West County's luxury communities like Chesterfield and Clarkson Valley. Kirkwood's historic walkable neighborhoods, where inventory stays tight. And the City of St. Louis corridors in Tower Grove South, The Grove and Lafayette Square, where investor interest has been steady.
DreamLux Home Loans, led by Zach Brown (NMLS #2156538) through NEXA Lending's 280+ wholesale lenders, works all three. Jumbo financing for West County buyers, physician programs for medical professionals near BJC and Mercy, and DSCR investor loans for city neighborhood portfolio builders.

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.

Which Loan Programs Work Best in the St. Louis Metro?
It depends on where in the metro you are buying. West County price points in Chesterfield, Clarkson Valley and Town and Country push past the conforming limit often enough that jumbo qualification comes up early. Kirkwood, Webster Groves and Crestwood move fast against limited inventory, so an underwritten pre-approval carries more weight with a listing agent than a pre-qualification. City neighborhoods like Tower Grove South, The Grove and Lafayette Square draw investor buyers, where DSCR replaces the personal income conversation entirely. St. Charles County still has USDA eligible addresses on its outer edges.
