Meet YourRetirement Mortgage SpecialistShannon Faulkner

Shannon has worked with Joan Qvigstad, a Retirement Mortgage Specialist with Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation, since 2017. As Joan's outside contracted marketing consultant and digital marketing specialist, she has had a front-row seat to the development and growth of the Reverse Mortgage division at Fairway. But more importantly, she has grown to love the opportunities available through Fairway Reverse to help seniors enjoy their retirement years and live more comfortably as they age in place at home.

When the opportunity to work with Joan as her partner in the NW Senior Mortgage Team came up, Shannon was thrilled to take it. What a great way to spend the next chapter in her life helping seniors stay in their homes, move closer to family and friends or simply live with more financial peace.

A Home Equity Conversion Mortgage loan is an incredible chance for seniors 62 and older to increase retirement income with the flexibility of using their home's equity and eliminating their mortgage payments. The requirements are that the borrower is 62 or older, the home is their primary residence, and that they continue to pay their property taxes, and insurance and keep up on the maintenance of their home.

As part of the NW Senior Mortgage Team, Shannon and her team can help create a cohesive plan using all aspects of the HECM loan options in Gig Harbor, Kitsap County, and the surrounding areas. These options include the Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) loan, HECM for Purchase (H4P), and Jumbo Reverse Mortgage Loans.

Shannon loves bringing people together and provides monthly education for seniors and their families with her "Golden Road to Retirement Living" education series. Local professionals are invited to share their knowledge and expertise by offering ways to help seniors "live their best lives". As a wife and mother of six daughters and two grandsons, Shannon knows how wonderful living a blessed life can be.
