Sr. Loan Advisor / VP
Larry is a proud Pittsburgher. He was raised in Mt. Lebanon and attended Pennsylvania State University, where he earned a Bachelor’s degree in Finance.

Working with Larry was a great experience. Everything from the pre-approval to the closing went very smooth and the interest rate was amazing. If you're looking for someone who responds almost immediately to any question you have and is very professional, Larry is your guy.

Larry came highly recommended and we can see why! He was very helpful in deciding the best type of loan to go with - VA vs Conventional. Larry is very quick to answer any questions, day and night - and even worked with us while he was on vacation. I highly recommend Larry Gavett and will gladly work with him in the future!
