License numbers are available upon request.

Borrowers are encouraged to review all loan documents carefully and seek independent legal counsel prior to closing.

We are committed to compliance with the Fair Housing Act, which prohibits discrimination in residential real estate transactions based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, or disability. We are an Equal Housing Lender.
All mortgage loan disclosures are provided in accordance with the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) and the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA), as implemented by Regulation Z and Regulation X. Loan Estimates and Closing Disclosures are provided within required timeframes.

In accordance with the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, we provide clients with a Notice of Privacy Practices describing how we collect, use, and share nonpublic personal information. Clients have the right to opt out of certain information sharing practices as described in our Privacy Policy.
Our mortgage and consumer financial services operations are subject to oversight by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). We are committed to treating all consumers fairly and in compliance with all applicable CFPB regulations and guidelines.
Union Point Financial is not a registered investment advisor (RIA) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. We do not provide securities investment advice, portfolio management, or securities brokerage services. Any discussions of investment strategies are general in nature and do not constitute personalized investment advice.
Fixed annuities, fixed indexed annuities, and life insurance products offered through Union Point Insurance are insurance products, not securities. They are not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and are not subject to FINRA oversight. These products are regulated by state insurance departments.
Annuities are long-term financial products designed for retirement purposes. Withdrawals prior to age 59½ may be subject to a 10% IRS penalty in addition to ordinary income taxes. Surrender charges may apply during the surrender period. Annuity guarantees are backed by the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company.
Life insurance products involve underwriting and are subject to approval based on health and other factors. Premiums and coverage amounts vary based on age, health status, and policy type. Policy illustrations are not guarantees of future performance. Cash value accumulation in permanent life insurance policies is not guaranteed and may vary.
Retirement planning strategies discussed by our advisors are based on current tax laws and regulations, which are subject to change. Social Security benefit estimates are based on current law and may change. We recommend consulting with a qualified tax advisor and estate planning attorney as part of your comprehensive retirement plan.
Any rate quotes, pre-qualifications, or pre-approvals provided by Union Point Home Mortgages or Union Point Commercial Finance do not constitute a commitment to lend. All loan applications are subject to underwriting review, credit approval, property appraisal, title review, and satisfaction of all applicable loan conditions prior to closing.
Interest rates and Annual Percentage Rates (APRs) quoted are subject to change without notice and are based on market conditions at the time of quotation. Rates are subject to credit qualification, loan-to-value ratio, property type, occupancy, and other factors. The APR includes the interest rate plus certain fees and costs associated with the loan.
You may verify the licensing status of our mortgage loan originators through the NMLS Consumer Access website at www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org. This free service allows consumers to confirm that mortgage professionals are properly licensed in their state.
Commercial real estate loans, business loans, and investment property financing are commercial transactions and are not subject to the same consumer protection laws as residential mortgage loans. Commercial borrowers are presumed to be sophisticated parties capable of evaluating the terms and risks of commercial financing.
Union Point Insurance and The P&C Agency receive compensation from insurance carriers in the form of commissions and, in some cases, contingent compensation based on volume, profitability, or growth. This compensation structure may create a potential conflict of interest. We are committed to recommending products that are suitable for our clients regardless of compensation.
All insurance policies contain terms, conditions, exclusions, and limitations that affect coverage. Policy summaries and illustrations provided during the sales process are not the insurance contract. Clients should carefully review the complete policy documents to understand the full scope of coverage, exclusions, and limitations.
Insurance products and coverage options vary by state. Not all products described on this website are available in all states. Coverage availability, terms, and pricing are subject to state regulatory approval and may differ from state to state.
Insurance products are backed by the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance carrier, not by Union Point Financial or its subsidiaries. We recommend that clients review the financial strength ratings of insurance carriers, available from rating agencies such as A.M. Best, Moody's, and Standard & Poor's.
To ensure compliance with IRS Circular 230, any U.S. federal tax advice contained in this communication (including any attachments) is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of (i) avoiding penalties under the Internal Revenue Code or (ii) promoting, marketing, or recommending to another party any transaction or matter addressed herein.
Tax laws and regulations are subject to change by Congress, the IRS, and state taxing authorities. Tax strategies that are effective today may not be available or advantageous in the future. UP Tax Advisory will make reasonable efforts to keep clients informed of material changes affecting their tax situation, but clients are ultimately responsible for compliance with applicable tax laws.
The accuracy of tax returns and tax planning strategies depends on the completeness and accuracy of information provided by the client. UP Tax Advisory is not responsible for errors or omissions resulting from incomplete or inaccurate information provided by clients. Clients are responsible for reviewing all tax returns before filing.

Payment processing services are provided through registered payment processors and acquiring banks. Merchant accounts are subject to underwriting approval and compliance with card network rules and regulations.
Merchants utilizing our payment processing services are required to maintain compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). Union Point Merchant Processing provides guidance and resources to assist merchants in achieving and maintaining PCI compliance, but ultimate responsibility for compliance rests with the merchant.
