NANA BENONIS MORTGAGE

Branch Production Sales Manager · Wilmington, NC

Your home loan, handled with care.

Hi, I’m Nana! I believe getting a mortgage shouldn’t feel intimidating or full of confusing jargon. Buying a home is one of the biggest milestones in life, and my goal is to make the financing side feel simple, transparent, and enjoyable. Before becoming a mortgage lender, I was a Realtor, so I understand the home buying process from both sides of the transaction. That perspective helps me work seamlessly with agents, anticipate challenges before they become problems, and guide my clients through every step with confidence. Whether you’re buying your first home, your forever home, or an investment property, I’m here to be the person you can call, text, or lean on whenever you need advice. My goal isn’t just to close your loan—it’s to build a relationship you’ll feel good about long after closing day.

I take time to listen, ask the right questions, and collaborate with my underwriting and processing team to build the loan that actually fits your life — not just the one that’s easiest to close.

Down Payment

For qualified VA & USDA borrowers. Talk to me about which program fits your situation.

Built For First-Time Buyers

You've never bought a home. I do this every day.

First-time home buyer programs that lower your down payment, reduce closing costs, and make owning a home actually possible — not just a dream.

FHA First-Time Buyer

Designed for buyers with lower credit scores and limited savings. As little as 3.5% down with flexible qualifying.

Conventional 97

Just 3% down for first-time buyers. Avoid the long-term cost of FHA mortgage insurance once you have 20% equity.

Down Payment Assistance

State and local grants and second-mortgage programs that can cover your down payment and closing costs — sometimes entirely.

USDA Rural Loans

0% down for buyers in eligible rural and suburban areas. Income limits apply, but the savings are real.

VA Loans for Veterans

Zero down, no PMI, and competitive rates for active-duty, veterans, and eligible surviving spouses.

Heroes Loan Program

Special pricing and credits for teachers, nurses, firefighters, police, and military — because the people who serve deserve a break.
