KEY EMPLOYEES
Jeff Kleiner
Founder and President
920-738-1884
Jeff@myhomepath.com
Jeff Kleiner has been buying and selling real estate for over twenty-two years with 20 of those years focused on the lending business. He started his career with a large mortgage finance company in his hometown of Appleton, Wisconsin, learning the intricacies of the sub-prime mortgage business. By 1993 he took over the Wisconsin mortgage wholesale side of AmerUs Bank and led that team to new territories. That experience led Jeff to open his own mortgage brokering company in 1995 which quickly grew to one of the largest firms in the state of Wisconsin. In 2004, he formed Home Path Financial to provide good people with bad circumstances a chance to once again afford a home of their own and restore their credit to the high quality standards needed for conventional financing. Property acquisition and renovation combined with seller financing became the basis for HPF’s mission. Due to the overwhelming demand for the services HPF provides and the availability of properties sourced through his many industry connections, Jeff is focused on the state of Texas as HPF’s main market and future growth area.
