It's becoming increasingly difficult for millennials to find affordable homes and that generation is much of what the firs- time homebuyer market is comprised of. First, there is low inventory right now, which is making the prices go up. Second, a lot of the millennials have mounds of student loan debt and that makes it a much bigger hurdle to acquire financing at a good rate.

With a reputation for himself as a leading lender that clients can trust, Mr. Wilkerson brings a wealth of knowledge to his industry and, in particular, his area of expertise, residential loans in the Twin Cities area. When asked what inspired him to pursue a career in mortgages, Mr. Wilkerson said:

"I realized that I liked the mortgage world better than financial planning. At the time, TruStone Financial, a small credit union, was doing the mortgages for our clients, so I asked a referral partner if he would give me a shot at his company. I started in their refinance business in June of 2013 and haven’t looked back since."

Mr. Wilkerson centers his practice on tailoring personalized strategies for each client, open communication, 24/7 availability, and maintaining an independent network of REALTORS®. His extensive background and natural customer service skills have made Bob the go-to lender for Conventional, FHA, USDA, VA, Portfolio, and Construction loans in the Twin Cities area.

As a thought-leader in his field, Mr. Wilkerson offers lunch and learn seminars to first-time homebuyers as a way to teach them about the ins and outs of getting a mortgage. To do this, it is imperative that he stays on top of prevailing trends within the Twin Cities’ first-time homebuyer market. Discussing some of the current challenges, he noted:
