Thank you for considering me and Bank of the James Mortgage to serve your home purchase or refinance needs. I am Jamie Yowell and for over 20 years I have built a reputation for serving my customers with honesty, integrity and a passion for getting the job done quickly and positively for everyone involved.

I was born in Charlottesville and live in Albemarle County with my wife Brandy and our 3 children, Andrew, Allison “Ali” and Emily “Emmy” who are all active and keep us busy with school and sports activities. I hold a degree in business management from Averett University.

Since I’m based in our Charlottesville office, I can help you with a Construction to Permanent Mortgage, Purchase Mortgage, Pre Approvals for prequalification’s, & Refinance on properties throughout Central Virginia. I am able to offer Conventional, Conforming, VA, USDA, FHA, First Time Home Owners, Jumbo Mortgages & Investment properties….and if none of these terms are familiar, no worries; we’ll talk through your goals and find the best option(s) for you. At Bank of the James Mortgage we work with several funding sources/institutions to offer you options instead of a “one-size fits all” approach. A mortgage loan can be a complicated and sometimes confusing process. As such, I have developed and implemented a client/realtor communication program that keeps everyone involved in the property transaction informed of the progress of the loan.

At Bank of the James we believe in treating every customer with respect and dignity. Your loan is important, and it is up to me and our phenomenal support team to make sure that it is handled accordingly. Feel free to call, text or email with any questions. I am looking forward to helping you with any of your mortgage needs.

He was very open with us and he made us feel like we mattered to him. In fact, he presented us with our initial rate and then came back to us a day or two later with an even better option which we really appreciated. He was determine to get us the best deal and to make the process as smooth as possible. Throughout the entire closing process, Jamie kept us informed on where things stood and what needed to be done, which we appreciated even more as we wanted to close in a short time frame.
