About Me

He is passionate about working with clients and financial partners providing education and helping them learn about the true potential of the reverse mortgage program. Each borrower deserves the time and attention it takes to learn about the various options that can help their future financial needs, ultimately providing a more successful retirement outcome.
Over the years, he has learned that it takes the utmost patience, integrity, extensive product knowledge, and experience to be able to serve retirees efficiently. His dedicated approach and work ethic have helped hundreds of clients achieve their financial goals. He has also been a local resource for the community of financial professionals, being the “go-to guy” for reverse mortgages helping their clients learn about the potential. This includes attorneys, other banks that can not offer reverse mortgages, financial advisers, home care providers, insurance agents, and realtors.
There are many new strategic initiatives within the financial industry, different strategies going away from the old needs-based lending and going to a more proactive approach working together with trusted advisers. New conversations about using home equity as an asset, providing a collaborative approach resulting to a more comprehensive retirement plan.
Waters also helps homeowners secure a HECM Reverse Mortgage for Purchase. Did you know you can use a Reverse Mortgage to purchase a home now? In fact Mutual of Omaha Mortgage has the reputation as number one in the country! One out of every five homes sales purchased today are from Baby Boomers.

Life in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho
Nestled in the heart of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, my surroundings have become a playground for an array of outdoor recreations I adore. My mountain bike and I are no strangers to the numerous scenic trails dotting our landscape. From world-class biking destinations like Schweitzer Mountain Resort, Silver Mountain Resort, and Canfield Mountain, to the remarkable trails of Route of the Hiawatha and Farragut State Park, I’ve delighted in miles of breathtaking journeys.
Every weekend, I slip into the role of an adventure motorcyclist, as I navigate through the stunning Pacific Northwest on and off-road excursions. Our local parks, such as McEuen Park and City Park, provide idyllic settings for my leisure time, as they lay gracefully along the lake waterfront. Independence Point stands as another favorite of mine, offering a captivating view of Lake Coeur d’Alene that never ceases to amaze.
Hiking has become a cherished activity, as well, with trails on Tubbs Hill, Mineral Ridge, Canfield Mountain, and Mount Spokane Loop offering unforgettable adventures. My wife and I often take scenic drives along the Coeur d’Alene Scenic Byway, the Mineral Ridge Scenic Area, and the Panhandle Historic Rivers Passage, with every mile presenting a new picturesque memory.
In the wintertime, I revel in the thrill of skiing and snowmobiling, frequenting popular spots like Schweitzer Mountain Resort, Silver Mountain Resort, and Lookout Pass Ski and Recreation Area. And when summer rolls around, I find joy in the tranquil beauty of our lakes. Activities like boating, fishing, and swimming in Lake Coeur d’Alene, Hayden Lake, Lake Pend Oreille, Priest River and the pristine Priest Lake area mark the epitome of my summer enjoyment.
