We explained our financial situation with Pat, she advised us to talk to someone she knew about a mortgage and her connection got us a higher mortgage at a lower rate then to first person we had been talking to.

She was also very honest with us if a house would work before we wasted time to see it.

Pat is amazing to work with great personality and even with a mask on you could tell she was always smiling:)

We never would have gotten our dream house without her and the Lakes Team we can't thank them enough.
