SEM Review: Donna G. Steakley, Director of Sales, O’Dwyer Properties

Referral Letter for Southeast Mortgage

To whom it may concern:


In my 25 years in the Real Estate industry, I have never worked with a more efficient, loyal,” make it happen”, mortgage company as I have with Southeast Mortgage. There are too many wonderful examples to mention, but I will try to name the top five reasons to only use Southeast Mortgage for your home loan needs:

1.         They tell you and your buyer the truth even it is not fun to hear. Their goal is to get your home closed and setting the right expectations to get everyone to the ultimate finish line; closing.

2.        They have resources to close most loans by understanding their clients’ needs and are creative with the different income scenarios that are presented to them; they take the time to figure out how to let their client obtain their dream home.

3.         They are available at all hours and weekends for their clients; Southeast Mortgage understands work schedules, family priorities, etc.; they will work around your schedule.

4.        They will work with buyers who have goals to buy but are not quite ready. Southeast will work with buyers and put them on the “dream to own” plan to help them get their finances in order to purchase a home in the future.

5.        The most impressive attribute about Southeast mortgage is that you talk to real people, not a customer service representative that knows nothing about you; they are local, so you can meet with them in person; the clients always come first at Southeast Mortgage.

I met Shaun Graham for the first time at a closing. He represented Southeast Mortgage and the closing was perfect. He did not try to sell me on Southeast, he was very humble, he did not need to sell me; the closing and happy customers were proof enough of how great this wonderful mortgage company is, in this very volatile industry.

Origination Game Changer is Coming....

Southeast Mortgage held its 13th annual Officer Luncheon and 2018 Strategic Plan Launch with its 32 Officers in attendance.
Cal Haupt, Kathy Gyselinck, JD Crowe
GooRu and the game changing MLO origination Platform supported by its best in class Mortgage Application Tracking App was the center of attention.

Taking Applications at Point of Sale, Instant Approvals, Asset Verification and Income Verification all without additional documentation in most cases.  SEM's best in class CRM that keeps MLOs in front of their clients for 5 years after the close is also incorporated in our one device solution.  Access your clients any time with unique messaging to develop business.  One click and you can update your client base with your message.

Clients, Partners, Realtors, and MLOs will stay informed real time via SEM's Award Winning mobile App. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/southeast-mortgage/id1115070771?mt=8

MLOs with these innovative automation tools will be the future.

"We have been developing this concept for two years.  I do not believe the MLO can be taken out of the equation like Quicken and a few other automation channels attempt to do; however, I do believe there are significant efficiencies we can pick up with automation.  Our task was to make the application process EASY for our MLOs and keep all parties updated on the progress of a file real time.  The Solution we are launching this month exceeded my expectation and will expedite the application process eliminating redundancy and uncertainty for all.  This will Amaze our MLOs, Partners, Clients, and will Change the Game in Mortgage Origination."  Cal Haupt, Chairman, Southeast Mortgage of Georgia, Inc.

Putting Builder and Realtor Value First

Although 85% of Southeast Mortgage's volume is derived from retail clients, we are very proud of our accomplishment in the New Homes Sales Channel.

"Builders want to work with Southeast Mortgage due to our value added proposition.  We are the best at delivering great predictable service; however, the videos and other media we co-market with our Builders and Realtors simply drives more potential clients to their open houses and subdivisions.  More traffic = more sales.  We believe in adding value to our partner's franchises rather than just taking applications."  Cal Haupt, Chairman and CEO of Southeast Mortgage of Georgia, Inc.

With our extremely high pull through from application to close and accurate reporting to partners, Southeast Mortgage delivers the best overall solution to its partners and is why we are growing rapidly and earning more Builder and Realtor requests to partner.

Testimonial - Awesome Service Creates More Clients for Builders and Realtors

"Adding value back to our Builders and Realtors is why we focus on Awesome Service one client at a time.  We do not focus on doing more loans than everyone else, we focus on creating new clients for our Builders and Realtors from providing their Clients Awesome Service who refer their friends and family.  Organic word of mouth growth is sustainable in economic expansion cycles and contraction.  We are not here to be Average, We are here to be Awesome!"  Kathleen, Ben, and Wilson Parker Homes exemplify that belief as attested by our client.

Kathleen,

Words fail me at this moment. You have exceeded my every expectation!!! You provided outstanding customer service and support, and made me feel as though I were your only client. I have purchased several houses in my lifetime, this is the first purchase were I felt I had little to do and my lifelong friends were doing all the work for me.

You always made yourself available to me, even after hours. Candice always showed courtesy and love, and Adrian was like the big brother with the calm guidance. Let me not forget my awesome Realtor, Ben Richardson. This man knew what I was thinking, wanted to know, and researched answers before I asked the questions! He knew what I was thinking, feeling, and wanted in a home despite the words coming out of my mouth. God gave me the greatest blessing by putting you all together to work for my good in this home purchase. 

You all worked tirelessly and wonderfully to bring me to this magnificent end and I am eternally grateful for you all, as a cohesive team and individually. 

If anyone ever asked for help in purchasing a home, my first words will be BEN RICHARDSON (Harry Norman) and KATHLEEN WESTBROOK (Southeast Mortgage)!!! Every person who graces my home will know Candice and Adrian are the greatest team Wilson Parker Homes have. 

Thank you all for bringing me to and through this awesome transition in my life. I expect to see every one of you at my home warming, for you are all a part of my home. 

Home is where your heart is, and you all are a permanent part of my heart.
