Hi, I’m Mike Raines and I live in Knoxville, Tennessee, with my wife and two children. I am originally from Princeton, West Virginia and a graduate of Tusculum College in Organizational Management. A retired US Army veteran of 23 years, I have been in the mortgage business since 2003.
I am active in my community serving as a mentor for veterans and veterans families and I love helping people find the best mortgage for their home. From 2009 – 2016, I hosted “Mortgage Matters” Tennessee’s longest running real estate talk show dedicated to assisting Tennessean’s with home ownership decisions.
My primary role is to support my team and the clients of CrossCountry Mortgage, LLC to find success in home ownership. I regularly advise clients months ahead of a buying decision on preparing credit, income and assets to ensure success in the loan application process.
I can help you get a home loan in any of America’s 50 states – no matter where you are. I’d love to help you. Please give me a call at 865-300-5846 and we can get you on the road to your new home.
