Alex Shafirovich
Mortgage Strategist • Real Estate Finance
Real Estate Financing,
Thought Through.
Buying, refinancing, or investing in real estate is a big financial decision. The right mortgage should be more than a rate and a loan program. It should fit what you're actually trying to accomplish.
I help homebuyers, homeowners, and real estate investors understand their options, think through the numbers, and build a financing strategy around the bigger picture.

The Approach
Strategic.
There's more to a mortgage than getting approved. The better question is whether the financing structure actually supports what you're trying to accomplish.
Financing decisions built around the bigger picture, not just the loan.
Clear
Straight answers and transparent options.
Resourceful
Creative solutions when the obvious path does not fit.
Proven
Experience earned across thousands of transactions.
Financing for the Bigger Picture
Buying, owning, or investing in real estate.
Purchase & Pre-Approval
Home Buyers
Buying a home starts before the offer. I help buyers get pre-approved, understand their loan options, and structure the financing around their budget, cash, property, and goals.
Pre-Approval • First-Time Buyers • Conventional • FHA • VA • Jumbo • Non-QM
Homeowners
Reviewing a refinance, an equity strategy, or your existing mortgage? Let's run the numbers before assuming a change makes sense.
Refinance • HELOC • Home Equity • Debt Restructuring
Real Estate Investors
Rental properties, DSCR, portfolio growth, renovations, and more complex investment scenarios.
Investment Properties • DSCR • Fix & Flip • Bridge • Portfolio Financing
Certain business-purpose and commercial financing may be provided separately through Shafi Capital Consulting LLC, which is not a residential mortgage lender.
A Financing Process Built Around Clarity.

We start with a conversation about what you're trying to accomplish, not a loan application.

“Alex and team were great at walking us through the process and very responsive!”
“Highly Recommend!
I cannot say enough good things about my loan officer and the experience we had throughout the home-buying process. From the very beginning, he was professional, knowledgeable, patient, and always willing to answer our questions and explain everything clearly.
Buying a home can be stressful, but he made the process feel so much easier. He kept us informed every step of the way, was always responsive when we needed him, and truly went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly.
We felt like we were in good hands throughout the entire process, and we are extremely grateful for all of his hard work and dedication. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase or refinance a home. He truly cares about his clients and provides exceptional service!”

“We absolutely loved our experience with Alex. We had a unique opportunity to buy our dream home a year earlier than previously discussed and we weren’t sure if it we could pull it off financially so soon. Our house wasn’t even on the market yet so we were stressed. Alex was incredibly helpful and made it so we were able to secure this in a financially responsible way. He was easy to reach, took the time to answer even the most basic questions, and followed up after closing as well. We will make sure to use him again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone else looking for a loan.”

For Realtor Partners
A Mortgage Partner Who Helps You Solve Problems.
The best lender partnerships are built on more than referrals.
I help agents solve financing problems, educate buyers, strengthen offers, and communicate clearly through closing.
I want to be the financing resource an agent can bring into the conversation early: whether that means structuring an offer, working through an unusual scenario, helping a buyer understand their options, or simply making sure everyone knows what comes next.

About Alex
Experience in Lending. Perspective From Owning Real Estate.
I've spent more than a decade helping people finance real estate, but I was an investor before I was a mortgage professional.
That perspective shapes how I think about leverage, cash flow, risk, property value, opportunity, and the decision behind the loan, not just the loan itself.
I'm based in New Orleans and proud to call this market home, while working with clients across a broader footprint.
Understand the goal. Be transparent about the options. Solve the problems. Take care of people.
