Philip has been in the mortgage industry for more than 17 years. After watching from the sidelines as too many people walked away from the mortgage process discouraged or disappointed, he was motivated to become a loan advisor with CB&T Mortgage.  With Philip’s guidance and compassion, no client feels overwhelmed or out of options.

As a Colorado Licensed Loan Advisor, Philip specializes in all types of mortgage loans including, but not limited to, Conventional, FHA, VA, USDA, and down payment assistance programs.

CB&T Mortgage is a local, community lender that shares Philip’s goal of empowering homebuyers during the mortgage process. If you need help in obtaining financing to purchase or refinance a home, please reach out to Philip and the CB&T Mortgage team.

What his clients are saying:

“We actually had started the loan process with another lender, based upon the recommendation of our realtor. Unfortunately, it was a big mistake. Deadlines were being missed and overall it became an amazingly stressful process, that is until we met Phil. He sat down and explained everything to us, and I do mean everything. This really helped our understanding of the whole process, and in turn gave us a lot of peace that we would now be treated like we deserved. As you can imagine at this point, our loan closed with no problems and we even ended up with a better interest rate. I would highly recommend Philip Chavez to anyone in need of a mortgage loan.” – Rachel R.

“Philip was absolutely amazing. Our family was actually stationed overseas when our process began. I was very impressed with Philip at the very beginning, because of his knowledge and willingness to help, but I became even more impressed when he was willing to take phone calls at midnight and later to help explain things. He was always available and never made me feel like I was bothering him.   can’t tell you how stressful it is to buy a home while stationed abroad, but Philip did a wonderful job of alleviating our stress. It may go without saying, but I highly recommend Philip for anyone’s mortgage needs.”
– Allison S.
