I was pre-approved by another lender but due to poor handling, I was pre-approved a 100k for more than what their underwriter could actually approve me for. My original transaction fell through but luckily on short notice, my real estate agent recommended Sarah Baker to me and Sarah came-in, assessed my situation and quickly salvaged my home purchase here in Tacoma WA. Although she was not able to close the original home I found in Seattle WA, we found another home in Tacoma WA within a week and Sarah was always available by phone, text or e-mail. She quoted me a rate and it was still the same rate at closing. I also had a very difficult manual file to underwrite but she still took me on and we pretty much were put through a meat grinder when it came to underwriting but as she promised me she got me approved for what she originally pre-approved me, even though the purchase price actually ended up being a bit more! The timeline and approximate dates and time for each step in the transaction, Sarah always gave a dead accurate estimate. I was never in the dark about anything in the process and she was straightforward with how long some portions of the loan application would take. She also had the patience and understanding for the thousands of questions I had and I never had any concern not addressed, from start to finish and even after. I thought I wouldn't ever be able to find the home of my dreams here in Washington, but thanks to Sarah and her expertise, along with my realtor am now living in my own home here in Washington State. Thank you for everything Sarah!! read more
