Using Mark Merry at Granite Bank was a very sound decision for us. His professionalism, industry knowledge, calming demeanor, and servant heartened made the loan experience much less intimidating than it otherwise would have been. He walked us through every step of the way with exceptional clarity and concern for us, making sure we understood everything involved. He kept us updated on next-steps to keep the process moving smoothly. He found us the best mortgage rate, and locked it in before it climbed up. And then to top it off he even made a friendly appearance at our closing guaranteeing all was proceeding perfectly.
