Housing Oregon’s Heroes was created by Mortgage Marketplace, an independent mortgage brokerage headquartered in Salem, Oregon, with a branch in Eugene. We built the program for one reason: the people who serve our communities deserve a break when they buy or refinance a home. Educators, healthcare workers, first responders, law enforcement, military, veterans and community volunteers give a great deal. This is one way we give back.

OUR MISSION
We reduce or waive loan fees for qualifying heroes and connect them with Real Estate Broker Partners and Vendor Partners who offer their own hero benefits. Whether you are a teacher, a firefighter or a nurse, our goal is to make your path to homeownership simpler and less expensive.
Your situation is unique, and so is your loan. As an independent brokerage with access to over 70 lenders, we compare programs and pricing and bring you the options that fit, with the program discounts applied.
We guide you every step of the way. From exploring options to closing, our team makes sure you feel informed, confident and in control.
