Greetings!!!
My name is Alana Humphreys. I am a marketing assistant for Grant Holmes. We work at Great Lakes Mortgage Funding out of Metro Detroit Michigan. An opportunity arose for us to start up in Colorado Springs so over the past few months I've been working on our website and finalizing our license. We now have our license and are approved and ready to do business as Colorado Springs Mortgage Funding. Our main lender will be ABN AMRO of which Citi bank just bought. We are going to use our pricing from Michigan which can put us at an advantage. After reviewing the CO pricing to MI pricing I can come to that conclusion.
You may be asking yourself....Why do I care? What can a mortgage broker do for me? Or "I've heard this spiel before and really don't feel like wasting my time."
I have something to prove! In Michigan, we've been in business for 6 years and opened up 3 more branch offices. We DO NOT TELEMARKET. All of our business is through referrals and our clients keep coming back. We are able to refer our Realtors business because our clients will come to us when they are ready to move. Since I've been doing marketing I have systems in place to manage our database and make sure no one is left behind.
Programs--of course we offer the lowest rates but there's more. We can do FHA, VA, and conventional loans. We use a non-profit down payment assistance program that a lot of people have no idea about! It is a great program that can help new home buyers get into a loan.
I mail weekly and monthly newsletters and annual surveys to keep our clients in the loop. We will do co-branded marketing with any realtor. Advertising is always a plus.
The main thing is having such a strong and personal relationship with our clients and realtors this has proven our success and we are excited to build more relationships in Colorado!
Our website is: wwww.greatRATEco.com
WE update all the time and there is a lot of new things to check out. If you have any ideas for our site please let me know! I'd love some insite.
This is turning into a long message and I feel like I have more to tell! Give us a call or email sometime we'd love to talk!
Thanks for your time,
Alana Humphreys
