Today we’d like to introduce you to Matthew Bramow.
Hi Matthew, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
I have been in the mortgage industry for 11 years. 3.5 years ago I moved to Texas and started completely over and have turned this business into a success in that amount of time. I didn’t know anyone here so I had to grass roots it and it has been fun to see where we have come from to where we are going.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Not smooth at all, I bet on myself and have so far delivered. It was a complete restart in an entirely new market, city & state.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Model Mortgage ?
Model Mortgage is a Houston-based independent mortgage brokerage that helps families, investors, and business owners secure financing tailored to their goals. We specialize in a wide range of loan products—from FHA, VA, and Conventional mortgages to DSCR investor loans, one-time-close construction loans, and even unique programs like barndominium financing.
What sets us apart is our independence. Because we aren’t tied to one retail bank’s rate sheet, we shop wholesale rates across multiple lenders on our clients’ behalf. That means better options, faster closings, and more flexibility than the traditional “big box” mortgage experience.
We’re known for combining Wall Street efficiency with a local, Houston-community feel. Our clients know us for being responsive, creative, and willing to solve complex scenarios that others turn away. Whether it’s leveraging down-payment-assistance grants, structuring a 2-1 buydown, or helping investors qualify with rental income, we find a way forward.
Brand-wise, we’re proud of being approachable, trustworthy, and forward-thinking. We don’t just close loans—we educate, guide, and advocate for our clients through one of the biggest financial decisions of their lives.
Above all, we want your readers to know this: with Model Mortgage, they’re not just a transaction. They’re a relationship. Our mission is to empower homebuyers and investors with clarity, confidence, and the best financing strategies available today.
