The goal of this website is to educate the home buying public and to aid first time homebuyers, who are not familiar with the mortgage industry, to avoid being easy targets for unsavory lenders.  All potential borrowers will find this site helpful.  In fact, even homeowner's will find useful information on this site.

The purpose of No Place Like My House is to create informed consumers.

About me:  my name is Ava Colonna.  For the past 20-plus years I have worked with thousands of people helping them to become homeowners.  My career includes some ten years in the banking industry and over ten years in the mortgage industry.  My goals have always been to help potential buyers realize the 'American Dream' of homeownership.

Currently I originate mortgages and am licensed in Connecticut and Rhode Island.  All that I do in my career centers around helping consumers in the areas of money, credit and the responsibilites of homeownership.

Potential buyers with credit issues who wish to work towards a goal of homeownership can contact me for help.  There is no cost for my service as it is part of what I do in helping people to become homeowners. 

Current homeowners who want help to protect their investment and loved ones can contact me for guidance and service as well. 

For potential buyers who are currently looking to be preapproved to purchase a house please note I provide reliable preapproval letters.  All of my preapprovals are issued with the use of underwriting software which is used in the lending industry to approve loans.  Extra time is given to perform an in-depth interview with my customers so they know exactly which product is best suited for their particular situation, why that particular product and all the costs involved with that product.

Please contact me with questions and/or concerns on the 'contact us' page of this website.  Thank you!
