If you’re looking to buy a house, qualifying for a mortgage is one of the most important steps. Stacy Lynn Schriever is a residential mortgage loan originator and brand manager at Premier Nationwide lending, and she is dedicated to making the dream of homeownership a reality for her clients.

Many people are overwhelmed by the process involved in qualifying for a mortgage. When considering why it seems so scary, Stacy points out that a lot of people try to be their own experts. Much like you wouldn’t go to trial without a lawyer, or attempt your own surgery, having an experienced mortgage expert in your corner will make the process more successful.

And success doesn’t always mean an immediate “yes” on a mortgage decision. Sometimes Stacy’s team needs to say, “not right now,” and provide additional guidance on how to qualify for that loan. Giving extra support is a key part of her business values, because she views each loan application as a whole person, not just a collection of numbers.

In fact, it was helping her own parents become first time homeowners that has been one of the highlights of Stacy’s career. Walking them through the process and then watching their excitement on moving day is a memory she’ll always cherish.

Whether the mortgage is for the family themselves or an investor who will rent it out to a family, Stacy makes every mortgage application decision with the people themselves in mind. As her team celebrates one year in their Flower Mound location, they are thrilled to support the community through educational programs for both Realtors and potential homebuyers.
