Meet Chris McDaniel

Columbus-based mortgage loan officer at NFM Lending — helping Ohio, Florida, and California families finance their homes with clarity, speed, and a personal touch.

A Local Lender Who Actually Knows You

I'm Chris McDaniel, a mortgage loan officer with NFM Lending based right here in Columbus, Ohio. I've spent over a decade helping Central Ohio families navigate one of the biggest financial decisions of their lives — and I take that responsibility seriously.

My approach is simple: treat every borrower the way I'd want to be treated. That means fast responses, honest advice, and a process that's as stress-free as possible. Whether you're buying your first home, upgrading, refinancing, or have a complex financial profile, I'll find the right loan for your situation.

I'm not a call center. I'm your neighbor — and I'm invested in this community just like you are.
