Lanora Campbell, Ozarks Home Loan Professional

Experienced Loan Officer Goes Back To Her Roots!

As a Senior Loan Officer I have worked with first time home buyers as well as Presidents of Companies. No matter who they are or what position they hold I continue to strive to meet customer expectations. I simply set the groundwork by explaining the process from application to closing. By keeping all parties informed throughout the process then there are no surprises at the closing table. Life in general can be stressful enough and this is one of the biggest investments a buyer will have in their life time. I offer FHA, VA, Conventional (conforming), Jumbo (non-conforming) and 100% USDA.

I prefer face-to-face applications in my office or the Realtors office.

Areas of Expertise and Background

With over 30 years in the Mortgage Banking and the Mortgage Broker Industry I can say that I have a thorough understanding of the process. I have seen just about every market there is and it always runs in a cycle good and bad. I have processed loans from origination of the application, gathered all documentation, processed them and have personally attended my closings. My background includes Management of Branches, Management of a Processing and Closing Center that covered nine states and was also one of Tulsa, Oklahoma's first Mortgage Broker Companies. I always enjoy being on the cutting edge of things.

The last two years I have worked as Branch Manager and Vice President for a local Title Company. As a Closing Agent my responsibilities were preparing Title Commitments; preparing the HUD-1 (Settlement Statement) working with Realtors, Lenders and helping the homeowner understand the closing documents before signing. The job didn't end there I also prepared Final policies after the closing. I hold a Missouri Producers License to process Title work and handle Lender closings as well as a Notary for the State of Missouri. I earned a certificate from HUD as a Certified Credit Analyst I for underwriting FHA loans. I have several certificates from HUD classes.

After the recession hit and the Title Company I worked for closed I decided that I wanted to get back to my ROOTS in Mortgage Banking so I searched for a Company that I thought had all the right stuff. I'm here to tell you it's hard to find. Working for a Company that gets the job done in an efficient, effective and timely manner!

These are the TOP SEVEN REASONS

1. The software is web-based. What that means for you is I can be at home in the evening or weekend and can take your application, pull credit and run the file through DU for automatic underwriting. I don't have to be in the office. I know the status of the file at all times.
2. In-House processing with a team of processors working for you.
3. In-House underwriting. No more waiting for long turn times with a Team assigned to assist you all the way. Any questions - I can get instant access.
4. We fund our own loans.
5. We draw our own closing documents.
6. Fees are lower therefore saving the customer on closing costs.

If you want to be serviced, get things done right and on time then you've come to the right Company and person.

Being born and raised in the Country of Croatia, which was part of old Yugoslavia. I work very close with Bosnian families that immigrate to Des Moines, Iowa.

I would like to express my appreciation to you for putting together the long lasting dream of many Bosnian families to buy a home.

Special thanks to Lanora Campbell and team. Without this wonderful team; hard-working Bosnian families, would not be able to accomplish their long-lasting dreams.

Please continue the good work. We all appreciate you. In behalf of all the families

Thank You!

Sincerely,

My first meeting with Lanora Campbell was at a real estate closing in the Springfield office. I was immediately impressed with her professionalism and knowledge of the industry. It was with a first time home buyer, and needless to say we were both anxious, not knowing what to expect. Lanora made the experience both an informative one and a relaxed one. She communicated the closing process very efficiently and you could tell she was very knowledgeable about the real estate industry.

Since that time, I have been able to work with her on numerous occasions, both in formal and informal settings, and I have nothing but the highest regard for her persistence to promote the business to the business community. In our business circles, she's very often the "go to person" when you need education, a lending hand to network with other business professionals or someone to help get the job done. Everyone knows Lanora, has nothing but high regard for her integrity, her knowledge and her steadiness as an industry professional.

I consider her a business associate and pleased to call her my friend. You are very lucky to have someone of her caliber working within your organization. My hat's off to you for "snagging" her from other competitors.

Sincerely,
