The accommodations are designed to eliminate some in-person contact and to make it possible to for processing staff to work from remote locations.

Originally intended to remain in effect for loans with application dates on or before May 17, the following are now extended to at least June 30th.

Testimonial

We appreciated how much Sara was willing to meet with us either on the phone or in person. She was a knowledgeable and caring person to help us without first home mortgage loan. Even though I had a million questions she actively listened and explained her answer. She is a magnificent person and I would love to share with family and friends our great experience with her. I definitely gave her a hug before we left the lawyers office signing for our house and thanked her for keeping this mortgage process smooth.
