Home values in Artois hover near $300,000 according to the most recent ACS release, and that single number drives a lot of downstream choices: jumbo vs. conforming, FHA county limits, down-payment strategy, and reserve requirements. New Avenue Realty & Loans translates those tradeoffs into one number: your monthly payment. We're an independent California broker working with Artois buyers, owners, and investors — call (323) 694-5476 and we'll run the actual scenario.
With around 336 residents, Artois is part of California's diverse housing landscape — a mix of long-time owners, new buyers, and investors building rental portfolios. We finance all three. Our job is to translate California's lending environment into a loan that actually fits your situation in Artois, not to push the same product on every borrower regardless of what they need.
Mortgage rates are public. Programs are public. What you're really buying when you pick a broker in Artois is the team's ability to read your file and quote the version of you that funds. New Avenue Realty & Loans has done that across more than 3,000 California closings — first-time buyers, seasoned investors, retirees doing reverse-mortgage purchases, business owners refinancing into a non-QM. The phone is (323) 694-5476 and the first call is free.

Common questions
Artois mortgage FAQs
Can self-employed borrowers in Artois qualify for a mortgage?
Yes. Self-employed borrowers are a specialty for us in Artois. If tax returns understate your real income, we can often qualify you with 12 or 24 months of bank statements, a CPA-prepared P&L, or a written verification of employment instead.
How fast can I close on a home in Artois?
Our average close runs about 17 days for Artois borrowers, depending on loan type, appraisal, and how quickly documents come back. Conventional purchases move fastest; complex self-employed and non-QM files take longer. We map the timeline on the first call.
What credit score do I need for a mortgage in Artois?
It varies by program. FHA loans for Artois buyers can work with lower scores, conventional usually prefers mid-600s and up, and our non-QM programs reach further down in exchange for different terms. We pull credit once and match the score to the strongest available program.
Do you help first-time homebuyers in Artois?
Yes. First-time buyers are a big part of who we work with in Artois. We walk through pre-approval, explain how down payment and closing costs actually work in California, and lay out FHA, 3%-down conventional, and other low-down-payment options at no charge.
Can I refinance my Artois home with New Avenue?
Yes. We handle rate-and-term, cash-out, and debt-consolidation refinances for Artois homeowners. Whether you want to lower your payment, pull equity for renovations, or move out of FHA into conventional, we run the math. If a refi doesn't save you money, we'll say so.
