Based in Nashville, Tennessee, I serve as Branch Manager and Senior Mortgage Loan Officer at Groves Capital. Over more than a decade in mortgage finance, I've built my practice on three things: relentless attention to detail, transparent communication, and the kind of problem-solving that gets deals to the table - and across it.
Whether you're buying your first home, refinancing to a better position, or expanding an investment portfolio, you'll work directly with me from application to closing. No handoffs, no surprises - just a calm, capable guide through one of the most important financial decisions you'll ever make.
"I had the honor of working with Kristin Howard, I have to say she is the best. Even though my process was complicated with multiple obstacles, Kristin never gave up on me and instead was very smart with a lot of knowledge and experience which helped resolve and overcome every obstacle with a great attitude. I'm giving her 5 stars because I couldn't find the 1000 stars button. Thank you so much Kristin!!"
A short conversation is all it takes to map out your options. No pressure, no jargon - just a clear path to the home.
