Team Member Testimonials

October 2017

I wanted to send you a quick note to thank you for continuing to give me blessings for my life. Ninja Selling was amazing.Thank you, thank you for 20 amazing years with my family at Cornerstone. Greg and I (and our family) have been incredibly blessed by you and Judy, and we are forever thankful for our friendship and opportunities. Looking forward to more incredible memories and fun times.
-Gina Jackson, Senior Vice President l Loan Officer

Thank you for having the vision and a defined mission Marc! I am honored to serve our clients and our Team Members every single day!
-Sam Bursch, Senior Loan Officer

Cornerstone is by far the best mortgage company I have worked for. It has a VERY wide range of loan programs with numerous investors-- and they are still adding more. The culture is unheard of-- they have a family/team dynamic. You aren't just an employee: you are a team member, and that stems directly from the top. The compensation is excellent and benefits are competitive. The best thing to point out is that closing dates are strictly enforced. If a loan needs to close on time, it gets done no matter how many resources and different members, from processing to the credit risk VP, it takes: they will all jump in, if needed. Marketing is quick, and they have a lot of different tools for custom marketing. Ops focuses to ensure that we are out creating, developing, and growing relationships with our business partners so we are not sitting behind a desk working loans.
-Nick Bautista, Senior Loan Officer

Thank you so much for being thoughtful and for running such a phenomenal company. It has been my absolute pleasure to call Cornerstone home – it is truly the best out there!
-Tara Zellner, Senior Loan Officer

Thanks for the Vision video. Really great stuff. As an originator, it is great to be part of something where we are so focused on customer satisfaction and on-time closings. I can really see by this video, and the one last week about us all being team members that Cornerstone is truly a family not just a company I have joined. Thanks again for the welcome, and I look forward to contributing to the success or our team.
