| Kathy helped me refinance my house after I did some remodeling. Kathy was very organized and educated me on the process and how to make the transaction go smoothly. I would highly recommend Kathy to anybody looking to buy a home or refinance a home. D. Dever |

| Pam wrote this on LinkedIn: Pam Leinmiller (client) Pam hired you as a Mortgage Loan Originator in 2009 and hired you more than once Top qualities: Great Results, Expert, High Integrity “I have hired Kathy for a refinance in 2009 and a new purchase of an out of town home for our daughter in 2012. Obviously in this industry, there is so much competition and a seemingly new "great deal" at every turn, but I returned to Kathy for my recent new purchase this summer because of the superb service I received in 2009. In both cases, when issues arose she was one step ahead and always finding solutions to enable us to close the mortgage loans on time with a great rate and covered all the bases. None of this comes easy in the current market! She kept the lines of communication open with the out-of-town agents this summer as if she was right down the street. I know her integrity to be above reproach and her experience and customer focus trumps all else in my book.” September 21, 2012 Request a new or revised recommendation from Pam Leinmiller |

| Thanks for taking time to chat with me today about refinancing my home. I fear that many would have talked me into the refi even though I would only be saving $50.00 a month. I applaud your professionalism and integrity. T. Johnson |

| Good morning! Just want you to know I am so very happy that our closing is taking place today. I can not tell you thank you enough for everything you done for us. I wish there was some way that I could repay you for your kindness. Even though I do not know you personally, you went above and beyond to give us guidance and help and for this I will be forever grateful to you. Thanks again so very very much! I can not wait to get my home remodeled now. Take care! Debra Colwell |

| Russ Young (client) Russ hired you as a Mortgage Brokerage in 2009 Top qualities: Great Results, High Integrity, Creative “I have recommended and referred Kathy to first time home buyers as well as "seasoned" home buyers. She relates to all and becomes the voice of experience and commitment regardless of the client's experience. Recommended an employee (at the time) as a first time buyer and she went out of the way to guide them and they were and are thrilled with the service and the program Kathy arranged. I can most certainly, unequivocally, recommend Kathy's work in the mortgage industry.” August 21, 2011 |

| Where do I start? Our home buying process was what one would call a somewhat nightmare. If Kathy hadn't been there I really believe we would not have our wonderful first home. We had some major hurdles to go through and she was with us every single step of the way. She answered phone calls at all hours of the night lol, responded to emails and put up with us for a total of 90 days in a process that should have taken only 45. She is undoubtedly a business professional who goes far beyond anyone I have seen in reaching out to her clients. We are extremely greatful for all that she has done and would recommend her over and over again!! Jeff Francis |

I just wanted to let you know that we appreciate everything you have done for our family. Closing was a smooth process and entertaining at that.

| I want to thank you for your most professional manner in which you conducted the entire transaction. Being in the real estate business for 20 years, I've met many people, but you have proven to be the most professional and diligent person I have worked with or ever met. Your hard work and follow up was very greatly appreciated. Of course, you will be the first person we refer to our family and friends. Sincerely, Mr. and Mrs. A. Zappocosta |

| Just a short note, long over, to thank you in making my relocation from Europe a smooth transition. One important point which I would like to mention is your keen knowledge of the mortgage and tax advantages available in the USA. Prior to moving to the States, I was completely unaware of these as well as steps that had to be taken in purchasing a home in America. I greatly appreciate the concise explanations given concerning the above. I will not hesitate to pass your name on the other colleagues that may need your services. Very truly yours, S. Chapman |
