“Home Is Where It All Begins”
When Alina Burke sits down with a first-time homebuyer, she doesn’t just see a loan application she sees a story beginning. There’s the couple closing on their first home after years of renting, the Veteran returning to Maine looking for stability, the family relocating for a new start. For Burke, each signature represents more than a mortgage; it’s the key to belonging.
After 23 years in the mortgage industry, Burke, a Senior Mortgage Lender, Manager, and Published Author, has become known as much for her heart as for her expertise. As the driving force behind Mortgages With Alina at Northpoint Mortgage, Inc., she’s built a reputation for transforming what can be an intimidating financial process into a personalized, empowering journey.
“I’m honored to be part of my clients’ journey of homeownership and home investments,” she says. “My clients deserve the very best advice and communication to help them make the very best decisions on one of the largest investments of their lives.”
From Advocacy to Leadership
Born and raised in Maine, Burke’s path to mortgage lending began in a place of empathy and purpose. Early in her career, she worked in both the insurance field and real estate, witnessing the stress that homebuyers often faced especially during an era when predatory lending was rampant. She saw too many families walking into homeownership without the clarity or confidence they needed.
That experience ignited her mission: to educate, protect, and guide borrowers through one of life’s most significant milestones. “I wanted to be the person who helped people make sound financial choices and enjoy the homebuying experience,” Burke explains.
Today, that mission has evolved into a lifelong commitment. As she often says to her clients: “I’m your lender for life.”
Building Trust Through Service and Expertise
At Northpoint Mortgage, Burke manages a dynamic team built around shared values of community, excellence, and integrity. With 14 locations across the East Coast and more on the horizon Northpoint has become synonymous with innovation, customer care, and local expertise.
The company was founded over 20 years ago by two brothers who still lead it today, maintaining a family-driven culture that mirrors Burke’s personal philosophy: “We know our clients by name, not loan number.”
Whether guiding first-time homebuyers, assisting Veterans through VA loans, or helping families refinance for financial stability, Burke’s approach remains deeply personal. Her clients aren’t just transactions, they’re relationships built on trust and communication. “I make myself available when my clients need me,” she says. “They know they can use me as a resource every step of the way.”
A Culture of Care: Happy Employees, Happy Clients
One of the cornerstones of Northpoint’s success and Burke’s leadership style is the belief that “Happy Employees = Happy Customers = Success.” The company invests heavily in creating a culture that supports both professional and personal growth, encouraging team members to thrive and serve clients with excellence.
Burke describes her work environment as “family-first and community-minded.” It’s not just about closing loans it’s about opening doors, figuratively and literally, for both employees and clients.
Throughout the year, her team participates in initiatives that promote financial education, volunteerism, and relationship building. Burke herself has been recognized with numerous honors, including two America’s Promise Awards, multiple sales and service awards, and community service recognitions. She has also served as President of the Optimist Club, sat on the board for Rebuilding Together, and worked with local hospitals and charities to raise funds and provide resources for survivors and families in need.
The Author Behind the Advisor
Outside the office, Burke extends her message of hope and resilience through her writing. She’s the published author of two deeply personal books “Incomplete: A Journey from Abandonment to Parenthood” and “Incomplete: A Journey from Fear to Freedom.”
These works, which explore healing, growth, and purpose, reflect the same compassionate values she brings to her career. “My greatest hope,” she says, “is that my books help others along the way.”
Her ability to blend professional excellence with authenticity and empathy has made her a trusted voice in both the mortgage and literary worlds.
