Patty McLain — known to her clients as Ask Mortgage Mom, is a mortgage broker with 35 years of experience helping homebuyers navigate the financing process with
confidence. Licensed in Minnesota and Wisconsin, she has helped thousands of families secure the right loan for their situation, from first conversation to closing day.
Patty’s passion is education — and it shows. In addition to running her own resource site at AskMortgageMom.com, she serves as an instructor for Kaplan North America, teaching real estate licensing courses to the next generation of industry professionals. She knows this world inside and out, and she’s dedicated to making sure her clients do
too.
Her approach is warm, friendly, and deeply personal. Think of her as the knowledgeable friend who happens to be a mortgage expert — someone who will answer every
question, walk you through every step, and hold your hand through the process the way a mom would. No jargon. No pressure. Just real guidance when you need it most.
Her free online seminars are second to none. Carefully designed to teach you exactly what you need to know, they cut through the noise and deliver real, practical knowledge, without the overwhelm. Her belief is simple: an informed buyer is an empowered buyer, and no one should walk into the biggest purchase of their life feeling confused or
unprepared.
