Real Stories from Real Owners
Sherry and Liz!
Sherry was incredible from start to finish. As a first time homebuyer, she was always quick to walk me through everything and to answer any questions I had. I'm grateful for all her help throughout this entire process and I highly recommend her to anyone.
Sherry answered every question clearly and made sure we understood the process. Would definitely use her again! Her and her office used the newest technology so the day of closing 99% of all the documents were e-signed in advance! No more sitting in a closing office for hours!
Very helpful, I would definitely recommend her to other people trying to purchase a home. Made the experience of buying a home less stressful than expected.
We are first time homebuyers and didn't know much about the process. Sherry and her team helped us so much. She was always there to answer questions and explain what to expect next. She got us a really good rate if not the best rate. I couldn't have asked for a better lender.
My husband and I are first time home buyers and we were recommended Sherry to help us with our loan. At the start of the process we realized we would need a lot of guidance regarding closing costs and loans. Sherry helped us understand the technicalities that come with purchasing a home and made sure we were comfortable with the outcomes. When we had questions, Sherry would quickly respond either text, phone call or email. Sherry was extremely supportive and knowledgeable for us and I couldn’t recommend her enough!
Sherry was amazing to work with. Her and her team did everything possible to get my husband and I into the perfect house! I highly recommend using her!!!
