A Leader in Mortgage Innovation & Real Estate Finance
In today's fast-evolving real estate landscape, mortgage finance plays a critical role in shaping investment opportunities, homeownership, and urban development. At the forefront of this transformation is Maryna Bochkarova, a trailblazing mortgage broker, investor, and real estate finance expert. As the Founder and Principal Broker of MBrate Mortgage (NMLS 2431879), she has redefined mortgage lending by connecting homebuyers, developers, and investors with smart, strategic financing solutions.
Bochkarova's expertise extends far beyond traditional mortgage brokering. Her impact on real estate investment financing, new construction projects, and fraud prevention initiatives positions her as a key industry leader driving economic growth—an achievement that underscores her extraordinary ability in the field of business.
Pioneering New Construction Financing in Houston, Texas
One of Bochkarova's most significant contributions to the real estate industry is her ability to bridge the financing gap for new construction projects. She is currently spearheading the financing of a major development on Johanna Drive in Houston, Texas, an area experiencing rapid residential and commercial growth.
Her deep knowledge of construction lending requirements enables her to structure deals that align with lender expectations, helping developers secure the capital they need to bring projects to life. The key elements she navigates include:
- Loan-to-Cost (LTC) Ratios – Ensuring developers meet financial thresholds, with lenders financing up to 80% of costs.
- Developer Experience – Guiding first-time and seasoned developers on lender requirements and general contractor qualifications.
- Exit Strategies – Structuring loan repayment plans, whether through property sales, refinancing, or rental income generation.
"Many developers underestimate how critical lender expectations are," says Bochkarova. "I help them prepare strategically, so they can secure the best financing terms and complete their projects successfully."
Transforming Mortgage Lending: A Tailored Approach for Every Borrower
As an accomplished mortgage broker, Bochkarova specializes in providing customized loan solutions that meet the unique financial needs of homebuyers, investors, and business owners. Her firm works with a vast network of banks, private lenders, and alternative financing institutions to offer:

By creating one of the most effective fraud prevention programs in the mortgage industry, Bochkarova has set a new standard for responsible lending.
"Lenders need to be protected, and borrowers deserve fair, transparent financing," she says. "My goal is to make mortgage lending safer and more efficient for everyone."
