The market halt focused his attention towards home purchases and the loan options available then and now such as FHA, VA, USDA, and Conventional (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) Primary, Secondary, Investment, and One and Two Time Close Construction Loans. In 2012 Mario married his wife Stephanie Christine, and they settled into their home in Garden Ridge, TX. In the summer of 2014 they had a baby boy and name him Triton Alexander Galdos.
