Laurie was wonderful. She went above and beyond what anyone would have or could have done for us. She worked evenings & weekends with us. She was very straight forward and thorough! She was very kind, honest, & sincere. I would definately refer Laurie to anyone looking for a mortgage.

I had a GREAT EXPERIENCE working with Laurie. As a first time home buyer I had a lot of questions. Laurie went through everything and explained it to the fullest. She worked very hard to make sure that the closing was on time and everything was perfect. It put me at ease to know that I had Laurie taking care of the loan paperwork.

Excellent! This is the 6th mortgage transaction I have done in my life and it was by far the most seamless and expedient one.

Very good experience. We had secured financing with another party, but were advised very late in the process that they didn't offer a 30 yr fixed. Laurie worked hard & fast to get full approval for us with a very tight time-line. She is very thorough & pleasant to work with.

Laurie was very helpful throughout the entire process. During negotiations, she clearly explained the different mortgage options in order to help me find the best fit. She was readily available when I had questions and re-ran numbers for me several times during the negotiation. At my closing, the real estate company expressed several times that they enjoy working with Bell Mortgage because their paperwork is so well organized. We had all the correct papers, my closing amount was exactly what I had expected and the whole process took only a half-hour. My experience with Laurie and Bell Mortgage was extremely positive and I would highly recommend them to others. Thank you!

As a first time homebuyer Laurie was very helpful in answering all of my questions. I felt that when she would meet with me I was her primary focus. She made sure she found what type of loan was best for me as a first time home buyer and becasue of that it will always be a memorable experience.

Our experience was amazing. I wish I could have used Laurie when I bought my home in Jordan, MN 4 years ago.
I don't think that my mother would have been able to purchase a home without Laurie's help. My mother, Maria, was not comfortable going through the process without my help and I live two hours away. Luckily for us, Laurie was willing to help ease my mother's concerns even if it meant more work. Laurie would explain everything to my mother and then she would e-mail me what she and my mother had discussed. This double information sharing eased my mother's concern and made me more comfortable too! Unfortunately, this made more work for Laurie because she had to work with two people in two different locations.
My mother is now a very proud home owner. She has told all her kids and her friends about the wonderful service that she received from Laurie and Bell Mortgage, which we see as one of the same. Laurie made a great effort in insuring that my mother understood what each step in the mortgage process entailed and this calmed any fears that my mother or I had.
I am sure that you receive many positive feedbacks from Laurie Whitlow's consultations. I know that my mother and siblings feel extreme gratitude for Laurie's help. We feel that she went beyond the normal scope of her profession to help us feel comfortable in the confusing mortgage process.

We had been working with a mortgage broker in the Cities and about 1 week before we were supposed to close he said we could not be approved. We were so upset and very sad that we had been turned down for a loan, however our realtor mentioned our situation to Laurie Whitlow at Bell Mortgage and she said she would meet with us to discuss other options. After talking with Laurie we realized that the broker we had been working with was not allowed to provide programs for 1st time homebuyers or government programs such as FHA that we were able to get approved under with Laurie at Bell. We are so excited to be in our new home and are finally getting settled in. We want to thank Laurie for helping us with our financing and we recommend to others who are looking for home financing to stay in town and work with Laurie at Bell Mortgage.
