Ken Smith: Experience You Can Trust

With over 23 years of experience in the mortgage industry, Ken Smith has helped clients across Washington state achieve their dreams of homeownership. Inspired to enter the mortgage business by a close friend and mentor, Ken has built a career rooted in expertise, relationship-building, and exceptional client service.

Ken specializes in all aspects of residential home financing, including both government-backed and conventional loans. Having called Washington home for over 30 years, he possesses invaluable local knowledge that benefits his clients in navigating the complexities of the housing market. Known for his transparency and dedication, Ken focuses on building lasting relationships rather than simply closing transactions. His business is 100% referral-based, reflecting the trust and loyalty he's earned over the years.

A WaFirst Mortgage President's Club Elite member and Five Star Professional award recipient, Ken's commitment to service has been recognized by both his clients and industry peers. Whether it's managing tight deadlines, like closing a transaction in just seven days to secure a client's earnest money, or keeping clients fully informed at every stage, Ken goes above and beyond to ensure that every client feels valued and well-supported.

Outside of his professional life, Ken enjoys quality time with his family and is passionate about outdoor activities, from skiing in the winter to hiking and biking local trails with his nine-year-old son. When the weather is right, he can often be found on the golf course. Ken holds a BA in Business from the University of Washington and has been proudly voted 'Father of the Year' nine years running by his son, an accolade he holds close to his heart.

For Ken, service is key. He works to make each client's journey smooth, informed, and enjoyable. As Ray Kroc once said, "If you work just for money, you'll never make it, but if you love what you're doing and you always put the customer first, success will be yours." This is the guiding principle Ken brings to every client interaction.
