I have been in the mortgage business for over 17 years. As mortgage lender, I enjoy being a part of a community bank that serves the community my kids have grown up in. I enjoy helping friends, neighbors and people wanting to make Ely a part of their life finance their home, cabin or land. It’s my top priority and Frandsen allows me to give the customer service borrowers deserve. Ely is a great area to live in. I was born in the old Winton hospital, grew up in a small town, and am glad we (my wife Heidi and I) have allowed our four children to experience great friends and a great local school. I give back to the community as much as I can. I have, and continue to, volunteer for many different parent and non-profit groups, including the Ely Community Health Center (free clinic) and Ely Hoop Club (basketball). I also serve as a school board member.
