The Loan Officer who picks up the phone, wherever you’re buying.

Serving homebuyers, move-up buyers, and investors across Ohio, Michigan & Florida from right here in Northwest Ohio.

I’m Pete Schlegel, a mortgage loan officer, real estate investor, and Waterville, Ohio native who has spent six years helping people buy homes and build wealth through real estate. I grew up in Toledo, I coach wrestling at Maumee High School, and my wife Ashley and I invest in real estate ourselves. So when a client sits down with me, they’re not getting someone who just processes loans, they’re getting someone who has been on their side of the table.

I work with first-time buyers, seasoned homeowners, and real estate investors across Ohio, Michigan, and Florida. I’m licensed in all three states and operate through Union Home Mortgage, which gives me access to deep product lineup, Conventional, FHA, VA, USDA, and DSCR investment loans. Whether you’re buying your first home in Perrysburg or your fifth rental in Northern Michigan, I know how to structure the right deal.

My direct line is always open. I pick up.

A Little Bit About Pete

I grew up in Toledo and never really left, and I’m proud of that. I know this market, I know these neighborhoods, and I know the people. When you work with me, you’re not working with someone who moved here from somewhere else and learned the area from a map. I’ve lived it.

I got into mortgage six years ago because I genuinely love the moment a client gets their keys. There is nothing like it. I’ve now helped hundreds of families buy homes across Ohio, Michigan, and Florida. First-time buyers figuring it all out, investors building portfolios, move-up buyers who outgrew their starter home. Every one of those files had a real person behind it and I never forgot that.

Outside of mortgage, I am the Head Coach of wrestling at Maumee High School and invest in real estate alongside my wife Ashley. I tell people that because it matters. I have been on the borrower’s side of the table myself. I know what it feels like to sit across from a lender and hope my numbers work. That perspective makes me a better loan officer.

I am based out of Perrysburg but I’m licensed in Ohio, Michigan, and Florida. If you’re buying in Toledo, refinancing in Naples, or picking up your first investment property in Northern Michigan, I can help. And if you call or text me, I pick up.

I'm based in Perrysburg and serve homebuyers, investors, and homeowners across Northwest Ohio and beyond. My primary market includes Toledo, Perrysburg, Maumee, Waterville, Bowling Green, Findlay, and the surrounding communities of Lucas, Wood, and Hancock County.

I'm also licensed in Michigan and Florida.
