With over 24 years in mortgage lending, Ian Evans brings experience, integrity, and a people-first approach to every transaction. As Producing Branch Manager at Neighborhood Loans in Albuquerque, he leads with purpose—mentoring his team and helping families navigate homeownership with clarity and confidence. Ian started in the industry at 18, working alongside his father while studying engineering. By 19, he shifted to lending full-time, driven by a passion for real estate and a desire to help others build wealth through homeownership. He purchased his first home at 20 and grew his portfolio to seven properties by age 25—experience that continues to fuel his commitment to his clients' success. Known for his thorough process and early closings, Ian takes pride in making the mortgage experience smooth and stress-free. His faith, work ethic, and belief in doing right by people guide every interaction. Clients and partners trust him not just for results—but for the care and clarity he brings to the process. Outside the office, Ian is a professional artist, avid runner, cyclist, snowboarder, and motocross rider. He thrives on connection, personal growth, and surrounding himself with inspiring people—just as he aims to be one for others.

Here's how we do things
Apply Online
Pre-Approved

to Processing
Our five-step mortgage process starts by applying online and getting pre-approved within 24 hours. This will require you to provide us some basic financial and personal information. We will take that information and get back to you with a pre-approval letter.
Getting pre-approved determines how much we are willing to lend, allowing you to shop for homes with confidence. Sellers will take your offer more seriously when you have a pre-approval from a lender. With this complete, you can now start your home search.
Finding the right home takes time, there are many things you need to look for and work out with the sellers. Once you find the home you would like to purchase, make and offer, and come to an agreement with the seller, we will submit your loan to our processing team.
This may seem far from simple for people, but Neighborhood Loans has you covered! The mortgage loan processor is the link between your loan officer and underwriter. We collect and verify all the documents necessary to prepare your loan. This is arguably the most important part of the loan process.
After you’re cleared-to-close, we will schedule your closing and fund the loan on the day that is most convenient for you. After the final documents are signed, you will be given the keys to your new home! We look forward to helping you through our home buying process.
