I am a first time homebuyer and Laura was extremely helpful! She explained things in detail, answered all my questions, was available after hours and on weekends. I would recommend her and her team without reservation.

Laura and Megan were amazing! They made the entire process so easy and stress free. This was our first home purchase and I could not be any happier with the experience we had! Holland Mortgage is very customer service oriented and will make sure you are taken care of!

“Laura was referred to me from my financial consultant, and she was amazing to work with. We were looking for our first house together and really didn't know where to start from the financial aspect. She made the process easy and effortless for us. She told us what documents she needed, we sent them, and somehow she worked her magic to do the rest. We were approved, then received platninum preapproval status when one house didn't work out for us, and made the offer process easy for our final house! She worked day-in and day-out for us, answering my never ending questions, running a fee sheet for us before viewing a new house, and eased all of my worries. I couldn't recommend her enough!”

“We had been looking for a new home for about a year and had been loosely working with a few other lenders. When we contacted Laura, we knew she was the one to go with - she was able to give us a better rate than the other lenders, without having to pay discount points. The fees were also a lot less. Aside from cost, we went with Laura because she was extremely knowledgeable and easy to communicate with. She took the time to answer all of our questions and made the closing process so smooth. I would recommend Laura to anyone looking to buy or refinance. We were in communication with several lenders and she is simply the best!”

“Laura is amazing to work with. She went out of her way to help us in a pinch for pre-approval and then worked up multiple different scenarios to decide what suited us best for closing. Highly recommend!”
