About:

Why Am I So Upbeat?? I am part of a mortgage origination team, and work (literally) for my husband, Steve Thorne, a Mortgage Loan Officer Extraordinaire! Why Am I So Upbeat?? I am part of a mortgage origination team, and work (literally) for my husband, Steve Thorne, a Mortgage Loan Officer Extraordinaire!

I am the daughter of a Mortgage Banker and a Realtor. I literally started my Mortgage Career at the age of 15, working a summer job for a PMI company! I thrive on change, and analyzing how trendsetters are capitalizing on change! Yes - we are in a "different" kind of real estate market, however, THERE'S MONEY TO BE MADE IN REAL ESTATE TODAY!

Our team enjoys working with buyers, sellers, realtors and builders who recognize this. I've been a partner/owner of several award winning mortgage companies, and share this "business owner" experience in mentoring and challenging top performers to be even better. It's not possible for one person to be the expert on every angle in business, but it is possible to surround yourself with people who are constantly looking for the "silver lining" and who are INVOLVED in the business. I bring upbeat, fresh ideas and energy to problem solving situations in this market. A very wise investor told me that, "if everybody is going right... the real deals are still over there on the left." Well Real Estate is no longer the "darling" of the Investment TV shows, but there's a ton of people out here making money in Real Estate! I look for trends, I collect new strategies, and I share this information with an open heart through networking, blogs, newsletters, seminars and as a featured speaker.

I love, the "Triangle" (traditionally referred to as the Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill), and I've seen tons of changes with the growth of Cary since my family moved here in 1968. I'm lucky to be able to work with my husband, Steve, who is also from this area ( his family already lived Cary when I got here and Kildaire Farm WAS a Farm... not just a road!) Steve and I have two brilliant children, a dog and a horse and a tank full of fish. We are involved in our church (First United Methodist in downtown Cary), the local Chambers, the Business Alliance at the Schools, and the YMCA. If you're new to the area and want to know how to get involved, we are GLAD to share our insight!

Areas of Expertise

Our daughter calls it "speaking the mortgage." She's heard us speaking to clients and talking about client needs all of her life. We see ourselves a little differently than most loan officers. We could say we are FHA, NC Housing, VA, USDA, JUMBO - Experts... and we'd be right. I'm a DE underwriter - I KNOW what a FHA loan looks like. But what we are REALLY experts at is helping someone find the BEST solution for their situation - and creating a relationship that makes them want to continue to refer everyone they know to us!

Our MeMe (five things you might not know about us!)

We started NationalMortgage Access in late 1998, and grew into a mortgage banking company in two states. We were awarded The Triangle Business Journal Fast 50 award in 2002, 2003 and 2004. We sold that company in December of 2006.

If you are looking for a North Carolina lender - who understands our unique Preditory Lending Laws and High Cost rules - please give us a call. We do a TON of USDA loans, and work with many agents who specialize in these deals. Good Luck! - Thu Jun 24, 2010
