About Josh

Meet The Fun Funder

I'm Josh Catigano — a licensed mortgage loan officer with CMG Home Loans based in Charleston, SC. I specialize in first-time buyers who've been told no, confused by the process, or just don't know where to start.

I built The Fun Funder brand because buying a home should feel exciting — not terrifying. I make the mortgage process simple, human, and actually fun.

Licensed in SC, NC, GA, FL, and OH.
