Name: Kathleen Deringer

Kathleen Deringer’s country mortgage made a dream come true. “It’s been a lifelong dream to have a house on land where I could have my horses right behind me.”

Kathleen’s loan officer played a crucial role in helping her live out her dream. “Hope helped me through every step of the process, she was always right there to answer my emails and phone calls and if she didn’t have an answer she would find out the answer and get back to me right away.  She made the whole process stress free and simple.”

Her future plans for her property include building the dream home that she’s wanted since she was a little girl and to provide a legacy that her son can carry on.
