Rick Craine

Residential Lender & Assistant VP

I am in my sixth year with the MidMo Bank Residential Lending team and am excited to serve in my current role as a Residential Lender. I spent my first five years on the processing team, ensuring our clients made it to the closing table on time with all documentation completed and verified. I take great pride in that experience, where I eventually became known simply as “The Closer.” That hands-on background now serves me well as a Missouri home loan expert working closely with prospective homeowners.

Whether my customers are purchasing their first home, forever home, or next home, or pursuing a refinance of their current home, my experience closing countless home loans provides valuable insight to keep the process moving smoothly. As a home loan expert in Springfield, Missouri, I approach every transaction with a solutions-based mindset, staying proactive and alert to potential roadblocks throughout the mortgage process.

Having lived my entire life in Southwest Missouri and graduating from Missouri State University after high school in Camdenton, I have a deep understanding of the Ozarks real estate market and the opportunities it offers. I also know that MidMo Bank’s Residential team has access to the right products, services, and expertise to help turn Southwest Missouri renters into homeowners. As one of the conventional mortgage lenders serving Greene County, Missouri, I’m proud to offer a wide range of loan options to meet the unique needs of our community.

We also offer special mortgage products designed for professions that give back to our community—such as police officers, firefighters, healthcare workers, teachers, U.S. military members, and more, whether currently serving or retired. Support staff for these professions are included as well.

Outside of work, I enjoy cheering on my favorite sports teams, watching movies, listening to music, and exploring the natural beauty of the Ozarks. When possible, I also love traveling to attend concerts.

If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, friendly Missouri home loan expert, I’d love to help. Whether you’re buying a new home or refinancing, I’m your go-to contact. Call me at 417-380-4016, and let me make the hard parts easy and the process seamless.
