Nikolina Lazic at Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation in Carlsbad originates residential purchase and refinance loans under NMLS #952050 from 1921 Palomar Oaks Way, Suite 200, operating through Fairway's company NMLS #2289. Fairway's direct-lending platform underwrites and funds loans in-house rather than brokering through wholesale channels, with property-condition compliance on government-backed purchases verified through pest-inspection firms such as White Knight Pest Services to satisfy VA and FHA Section 1 clearance requirements. The loan product menu spans conventional conforming, FHA, VA, USDA, jumbo, and non-QM categories, each underwritten against agency or portfolio-specific guidelines within Fairway's delegated-authority framework. The Palomar Oaks Way address sits in Carlsbad's 92008 ZIP code near the Carlsbad Lagoon and Tamarack Beach, serving purchase activity across the Village, Poinsettia, and El Camino Real corridors where Carlsbad homes for sale range from entry-level condominiums to high-balance single-family properties. Renovation loan products including FHA 203(k) and Fannie Mae HomeStyle require contractor bids meeting agency scope-of-work specifications, with roofing components coordinated through licensed contractors such as Tidal Remodeling for structural repair line items. The most complex transactions processed through this office include VA purchase loans with entitlement restoration, requiring a Certificate of Eligibility reflecting restored entitlement from a previously foreclosed VA loan and compliance with the VA's one-time restoration policy under 38 CFR 36.4340.
