About the Author

Steve Fingerman is a recognized leader in the real estate and mortgage industries with over 26 years of hands-on experience helping families achieve the dream of home ownership. As the founder and president of E Loans Mortgage NMLS# 856640, Steve built his business around a simple mission: make the mortgage process transparent, stress-free, and centered on the client. His commitment to educating consumers and doing what’s right—not what’s easy—has earned him the trust of thousands of home buyers throughout Florida.

But Steve didn’t stop with just mortgages. Recognizing how fragmented and confusing the home buying process can be, he set out to create a better way. He launched People’s Trust Realty and Trusted Title, forming a true one-stop shop where buyers and sellers can get everything they need Under One Roof ™—from pre-approval to finding the perfect home to closing. This unique model not only saves consumers time and money, but ensures they receive expert guidance every step of the way.

Known for his hands-on approach, Steve has helped thousands of clients navigate the mortgage process with confidence. His dedication to educating consumers inspired him to write How to Shop Like a Boss, an insider’s guide designed to empower home buyers with the knowledge banks hope you never learn.

Through decades of real-world experience, I have seen firsthand how little most people truly understand about mortgages—and how that lack of knowledge benefits big banks. I was determined to level the playing field, so I wrote How to Shop Like a Boss, an empowering and no-nonsense guide that pulls back the curtain on the mortgage and home buying process. The book is packed with insider tips, powerful insights, and straight talk to help readers make smarter financial decisions and negotiate like pros. It puts the power back into your hands and takes it out of the Big Box Bank's hands for good!
