Louis (Lou) Doherty – Trustee Member
Edge Home Finance

As a seasoned mortgage broker with more than two decades of experience, I’m looked upon as a trusted expert in mortgage financing. Working with an extensive network of over 150 lenders, clients find that I’m truly committed to securing the most competitive rates and securing the best program to fit their needs and situation. I offer options for a first-time homebuyer up to a seasoned investor. 

Originally from the Boston area and a resident of Palm Beach, for over 32 years, I am deeply invested in the South Florida community. I balance family life with a passion for helping others succeed — whether it’s achieving homeownership or developing a thriving investment portfolio.

My process begins with qualifying clients for a mortgage while providing a clear breakdown of costs involved in buying a home and available options they can choose from. This personalized approach ensures clients feel confident and well-informed as they move through the financing journey. Networking is a cornerstone of my marketing strategy, ensuring a steady flow of new clients who benefit from personalized and strategic mortgage solutions. 

When not working with clients, I enjoy the sunny South Florida weather, exploring Fort Lauderdale’s vibrant culture, and supporting the Riverwalk community.  I have been a Trustee member with Riverwalk since 2018 and can usually be found volunteering at many of the events in Fort Lauderdale.
