Meet Rob
The loan officer you can just… text.
Rob Daul is a loan officer with Fairway Home Mortgage at the Eden Prairie branch, helping Minnesota buyers turn “can we even afford this?” into a real, personalized answer. His whole approach is built on one idea: you shouldn’t need a finance degree to understand your own mortgage.
Ask him anything — what your payment would look like, whether your credit is “good enough,” how down payment assistance works, what pre-approval actually involves. No dumb questions, no jargon, no pressure to move forward until you’re ready.
