Noel Cookman

Noel is a Divorce-Lending Specialist who works at the intersection of divorce and mortgage finance. Having developed this specialty himself in 2002, 

Noel works with divorce attorneys and clients during the process of divorce.​Many mortgage lenders typically tell potential borrowers to come back once they have their divorce decree but Noel likes to get involved as early as possible, to advise and consult divorce attorneys and the clients so that once the divorce decree is issued their file will immediately be submitted, helping the client begin the next chapter in their lives faster and with little complication. Noel regularly instructs family law attorneys with his accredited Continuing Legal Education (CLE) courses. 

Noel is married to his beautiful wife Gay, whom he married a year prior to graduating from Southeastern University in 1972. They have two sons, Zack and Andy. Andy works with Noel as a loan originator and customer liaison at MiMutual Mortgage. Noel enjoys singing and inspiring people from all walks of life!

FIVE STAR REVIEW

“The Mortgage Institute has the expertise/experience divorcing couples and their attorneys need when faced with securing a loan to fund a settlement. They successfully navigate around the restrictive Texas Equity laws with the proper use of the Owelty agreement and lien. Recently they "saved a settlement" at the end of the process by finding a loan that, to the parties, looked unattainable.”
