Hi, I'm Pete Diamantakos.

A mortgage is the biggest financial decision most people ever make, and too often it gets handled like a form to be filled. I built Onyx Mortgage to do it differently — to be the agent who actually explains the why, builds a real strategy, shops hard on your behalf, and treats your goal like it matters. Because it does.

Working as a mortgage agent means I'm not tied to any single lender's products. I compare options across a wide network to find the fit for your situation, then handle the paperwork and negotiation so you don't have to. For most standard residential mortgages there's no cost to you — the lender pays the agent — so you get an advocate in your corner without a fee for the privilege.

First-time buyers hold a special place in how I work. There's real help available for people buying their first home, and it's far too easy to leave it on the table simply because no one walked you through it. Finding those advantages, and building a clear plan around them, is what led me to create the Onyx Homeownership Blueprint — a simple way to see your readiness and follow a path to the keys.
