Meet Alex
Branch Sales Manager with Fairway Home Mortgage, NMLS #1325483 — and the kind of lender who'd rather explain something twice than have you sign something you don't understand.

Alex Drake has spent more than seven years helping people across the Omaha metro do one of the biggest things they'll ever do: buy a home. He's a Papillion–La Vista graduate with a degree in sports management and marketing, and his roots here run deep — he's coached local high school teams, worked with Creighton men's basketball, and you can hear him talking hoops on the men's basketball postgame show on 1620 The Zone.
A family man at heart, Alex knows firsthand how much home truly means. It's not square footage and interest rates — it's where you raise your kids, make your memories, and build your future. That perspective drives how he works: clear communication, plain English, and clients who feel confident from the first conversation to the closing table.
As Branch Sales Manager at Fairway's Papillion office, Alex pairs that local perspective with a national lender's full program shelf — first-time buyer loans, FHA, VA, USDA, jumbo, NIFA assistance pairings, and refinancing. Whether you're buying your first home, moving up, or exploring an investment property, he brings the experience to get you there without the stress and confusion that usually comes with it.
How Alex works
If you leave a conversation more confused than you entered it, Alex failed. Every term translated, every number explained, every question welcome.
Milestone updates before you have to ask. Appraisal in, underwriting clear, ready to close — you'll know the moment he does.
If waiting is smarter, he'll say wait. If a program isn't right for you, he'll say so. The goal is your best move — not just a closed loan.
