Homestead Funding Corp: Merri Cook - (NMLS #50902), Kingston, NY

We cannot say enough about how AMAZING Merri was on our home-buying journey!! We did not use a realtor in our process and Merri walked us through every part. She connected us with an amazing lawyer team and home-owners insurance company. Everyone she recommended was helpful and caring. When we were picking the mortgage terms Merri was there every step of the way to help us with questions we had, and it was clear she had our best interests in mind. She was always available to chat and clearly a veteran in the field. Thank you again, Merri! We are so thankful for you.

As a first time home-buyer I had a lot of questions, not only was Merri terrific at sharing what was next and what to expect but often the calm in the storm. She is genuine and optimistic, honestly the better part of this process. An absolute gem who really knows what she is talking about- I would recommend her over and over again to anyone looking for a mortgage expert! Thank you Merri for making what could have been a very stressful experience one to actually be excited about!

Merri is the best partner you could ask for in this process. She is quick to reply, thoughtful, and patient. She has great advice along the way! 10/10

Merri was the best! We had the smoothest closing ever. Great to work with, professional and always available for a question or ten! Thanks again Merri!

Working with Merri on obtaining a mortgage was a terrific experience! She walked us through the process very patiently, explained (and reexplained) things that we didn't understand incredibly clearly, and was very responsive to our inquiries. She's also a friendly, warm person. Can't recommend her enough -- she was a delight to work with.

I cannot say enough about the excellent experience we had working with Merri Cook--she is outstanding. At the outset of our engagement, Merri took the time to walk us through the process, our options, and to help us think through what was best for us. Throughout the process of purchasing our home, we faced significant unexpected challenges on our side and Merri absolutely went to bat for us. She worked incredibly hard to come up with creative solutions, make changes, get insights from her team, and do it all at a rapid fire pace. The level of support and service that Merri gave us from the beginning to the end of the process was truly exceptional. We are so grateful for the partnership and support from Merri. She is 100% the reason we gave Homestead our business and she is the reason we will keep our business there. She is the reason we now own a beautiful home! We could not have done it without her. We highly recommend Merri for anyone purchasing a property.

I recently worked with Merri and the Homestead team to secure a loan for my first home, and I cannot recommend them enough.

Overall, I appreciate her patience and willingness to go above and beyond to ensure that I had a smooth experience. I highly recommend Merri and the team to anyone in need of a mortgage lender. Thank you, Merri, for making my first home purchase a success!
