Fairway Home Mortgage NMLS # 2289 - Equal Housing Opportunity - https://bit.ly/FIMCDisclosures Thank you for your trust in choosing Wallick & Volk as your mortgage lender. Since 1932, they have been one of the most recognized lenders in the real estate market. I am proud to be a part of their team. I believe what makes me stand out as a mortgage banker is my diverse knowledge of the mortgage busine

ss. My experience has been in all aspects of the mortgage industry for the past 25 years. I have been a loan processor, underwriter, closer, and an originator. With some of the “internal” experience, I feel I have the knowledge to know up front about a buyer’s financial situation and to ensure a smooth on-time closing. The mortgage industry is constantly changing and is challenging. It’s important to stay on top of guidelines and to know all loan options that are currently available. I take pride in researching all loan products and giving the facts of each program. Guiding my clients to make the right decision on what will be the biggest investment of their future is where my passion is. I assure you that communication and honesty are the BEST customer service standards I will provide as your life long mortgage banker. On a personal level (and since I’m so proud), I wanted to mention my 8 year old daughter. After 16 years of waiting, she came into our lives with a BANG! She is our whole life and I enjoy spending most of my time with my husband and daughter doing outdoors adventures, rodeo and teaching her everything I know. I hope this site provides you with tools and mortgage information that you can find useful. NMLS #821145 / AZ MLO #0929746

🤠 Business Tip of the Week: Schedule a Midyear Reset

By this time of year, most of us are running on momentum. Our calendars are full, routines are established, and we're checking boxes every day.

But here's the question: Are the things filling your calendar actually moving your business forward?

Midyear is the perfect time to take a step back and evaluate:

✔️ Which activities create the most value for your clients and referral partners?
✔️ Which tasks consume time without producing meaningful results?
✔️ Are your business relationships clear, reciprocal, and aligned?
✔️ Are you communicating proactively or constantly reacting to problems?

One of the biggest lessons I've learned is that success isn't built by doing more—it's built by doing the right things consistently.

A quick reset now can help prevent burnout, improve focus, and create a stronger second half of the year.

Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is pause long enough to make sure you're still headed in the right direction.

On my way to help another buyer discover that "I just want a little land" usually turns into "Can we find 10 more acres?" 🤠

Whether you're dreaming of horses, a barn, a workshop, or simply some space from the neighbors, financing acreage and rural properties isn't always the same as financing a home in town.

That's where I come in... Call me and let's get you that property and maybe a horse or two!

A quick tip for home buyers!
Open houses provide important opportunities to determine if a home is right for you. Asking the right questions can help you more easily choose the right home for your family. It can also give you insight into the property’s condition, neighborhood, and potential future costs so you can make a more informed decision.

Do you want to know what a payment would look like on a home you have your eye on? Give me a call and I will be happy to review numbers with you!

🏡 Why are you still renting?

It’s a question worth asking yourself—and the answer might surprise you.

Many people assume they need a huge down payment, perfect credit, or years of saving before they can buy a home. The reality is that there are often more options available than people realize.

If you've been putting homeownership on hold, it may be time to find out whether the obstacle is a real roadblock—or just outdated information.

Every situation is different, and sometimes a simple conversation can help you understand what's possible and create a plan that fits your goals.

Whether you're ready to buy now or just exploring your options, I'm here to help.

📞 Let's talk about your numbers, your timeline, and what it would take to make homeownership a reality.

Did you know there's a difference between a mortgage professional who is licensed and one who is simply registered through a bank?

As a licensed mortgage professional, I maintain my own NMLS license, which means I have:

✔️ Passed national licensing exams
✔️ Completed required education and ongoing annual training
✔️ Passed background checks
✔️ Met state and federal compliance standards
✔️ Remained personally accountable for my work and reputation

What does that mean for you?

My license follows me wherever I go. My experience, education, and professional track record are transparent and available for consumers and referral partners to verify.

It also means I'm not limited to just one bank's products and guidelines. I have access to a variety of loan programs designed to help borrowers find the financing solution that best fits their goals.

Whether you're buying your first home, upgrading, downsizing, or purchasing acreage and rural property, having an experienced licensed mortgage professional in your corner matters.

Because when it comes to one of the biggest financial decisions of your life, experience, accountability, and options make a difference.

🌵 Motivational Monday 🌵

"Success isn't found in the easy ride. It's earned in the split second when preparation meets opportunity."

The moments people see—the win, the achievement, the breakthrough—are only a small part of the story.

What they don't see are the early mornings, the late nights, the setbacks, the practice, and the determination it took to get there.

Whether you're chasing a championship, building a business, buying a home, or pursuing a dream, success rarely happens by accident. It happens when preparation meets opportunity—and you're ready to take your shot.

Keep showing up. Keep doing the work. Your moment is coming.
