In this episode of Real People Real Estate, Lindsay sits down with Applied Mortgage loan originator and longtime investor Jeff LaPointe, the definition of cool, calm, and collected — and someone who has quietly built serious expertise through more than 15 years as a landlord of six rental units, 14 years in banking, and now serving over 100 homeowners with consistent five star service. Jeff shares the practical lessons real estate has taught him, how he helps buyers navigate today’s market with confidence, and why staying steady and people focused has been the key to both his investing success and his rapid rise as a top mortgage professional in Western Mass.
