Laura was incredible to work with, and went above and beyond in supporting and helping us through our home buying journey! It was my first time purchasing a home, and... read more I had many questions about every step of the process. During our first meeting, Laura thoughtfully and patiently answered all of our questions, and continued to check in with us and make herself available to us each step of the way. Laura also put us in touch with a wonderful team, and our home buying experience couldn’t have gone smoother. Laura was efficient and thorough, we felt supported and cared for, and that no question or concern was too much.

I was introduced to Laura, a family friend's connection, in May 2023. They had assured me that if anyone could help me secure a mortgage, it would be her -... read more and they were right. When my husband and I first spoke to Laura, we both had very low 500 credit scores. Laura was upfront in telling us that with our limited savings, we could only afford a $200k house. However, she also provided a clear plan of action, outlining the steps we needed to take to improve our financial standing and get approved for a realistic mortgage. Over the next year, from May 2023 to April 2024, Laura and I stayed in close contact. She regularly ran the numbers, exploring every possible avenue to help us achieve our dream of homeownership. It was a challenging and emotional process, but in April 2024, Laura delivered the good news - we had been pre-approved for a solid mortgage amount. Shortly after, Laura introduced us to Sharife Choate, a realtor she had worked with before who she thought would be exactly what we’d need in a realtor; and she was right, he was everything we needed. Throughout the house-hunting process, Laura remained in close communication, keeping me informed and offering support whenever needed - even replying to 6AM texts and emails within minutes. Laura's involvement didn't end at the closing table. In June 2024, she surprised us by attending the closing, providing a sense of relief and reassurance during the overwhelming paperwork. After the closing, she gifted us a personalized cutting board and has continued to check in on us. Laura is not your typical loan officer. She genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond to help them achieve their homeownership goals. Over the course of a year, she guided us from low credit scores to a successful closing with a 3.5% down payment. If you have the opportunity to work with Laura, I highly recommend it.

I cannot overstate what an exceptional borrowing experience we had with Laura Barron at Salem Five. Throughout our recent home-buying experience, Laura provided prompt and personable service, spent substantial time... read more researching, reviewing, and securing the best financing option for us, and made it clear from the start that she was eager for our business. When we encountered a few slowdowns with the loan approval process, Laura got involved, gathered the needed info, and ushered our application through. We navigated the entire loan process from application to closing in one month, in large part because of Laura’s clear communication, responsiveness, and commitment. She remained connected with us from day one to closing. I got no fewer than 90 texts from Laura, could reach her by phone at a moment’s notice, and (because of the delicate timing of our offer) even had a call with her on the holiday weekend to review loan options. Laura even attended our closing to ensure everything went smoothly. If you’re in the market for a home loan, give Laura your business. You won’t regret it.

I first got connected to Laura via social media when a mutual friend shared one of her posts. A few months later when my husband and I had some questions... read more about whether it was a good time for us to look into buying a home, I sent Laura a DM on instagram and she was kind, quick, professional, and accommodating. We set up a phone call where she answered all our questions and explained the home buying process. She made it super clear what the next steps were, and explained all our options to us every step of the way. A few times she even presented us with a choice, do you want me to explain every single number and every little detail or do you just want an update on the biggest things? This was really helpful as I didnt necessarily understand every detail and didnt feel the need to be updated on them. She got us pre-approved very quickly and did an updated pre-approval when we received a large financial gift. The online portal that Cross Country Mortgage uses to send documents for review and to sign was easy, secure, and made it a breeze to organize and find documents.

She understands some of the hard parts of home buying and that it is both a financial and emotional decision! I would recommend Laura without hesitation to anyone looking for a loan officer in Massachusetts.
