What could I say, I originally reached out to other companies and spoke to lenders and was not a fan of the service, how I was spoken to, or treated. I then found the Sherry Riano Team and got to work with a Lender by the name of Hunter Boyd. He provided excellent service, answered all my questions and concerns. He was patient and worked with me especially being a First Time Home Buyer. I can definitely say my lender advocated towards my best interest and set me up for success when it comes to home ownership! Thank you!

I cannot recommend the team at Sherry Riano highly enough - my husband and I were in the process of buying our first house and our wonderful realtor forwarded them to us and I am so grateful she did. They have gone above and beyond answering every single questions we had and making sure we understand exactly how the home-buying and loan process worked. Jeff and Chris, specifically, were truly amazing. They have made this process so smooth and not nearly as scary as we thought it would be when we first started looking at houses. Please use them!

Consistently frustrating experience. In preparing the paperwork, info was incorrect, after closing still getting emails to sign paperwork that had to be redone, asking to sign paperwork that was already done. Examples: mispelled names, my spouses number listed as the lender number (paperwork prepared by lender), incorrect information about home ownership, etc. When we pointed out a discrepancy....the response was, we cant change anything now, just sign it and well fix it at the end. Closed weeks ago and still fixing things. Cannot recommend.

Firstly they didnt give us the lock-in rate they promised.. they said lender not offering that now...they forgot to include our design selection deposit as part of down payment lot of mistakes in amounts in the lock-in quotes they sent... when we pointed that out they asked us to go to shop somewhere else.... borderline discriminatory.... We only selected them because they were preferred lender....

As a first time (widowed) buyer, I was extremely nervous about relocating to a new state. One of the first people I spoke with, and who continued to hold my hand was Hunter Boyd. He gently and confidently explained each step of this overwhelming process. Talking with him was like talking to my son, right from the start! Knowing the process a step at a time made it manageable, and even enjoyable. Friendliest support I ve ever experienced in the business world. Thank you, Hunter, for always being available to answer my many questions!!

Started out well, but the closer we got to the closing the worse they got. I got an email almost every day for the last two weeks with more things to do. I responded within an hour or two each time. Two months before the closing they told me we needed an estimate for the flood insurance. We got that. Then, on Friday afternoon before Memorial Day weekend, when our closing was on Tuesday morning, they tell us we need to actually get the flood insurance and pay for it $3,700. Thankfully the agent was a friend, and we got it done in less than two hours. The closing was set to be in my office at 10:00. My wife came to the office, and we waited for 30 minutes and the notary didnt show up. I called Hunter. He told me that the lender hadnt gotten everything ready, so the closing couldnt happen yet. I asked him when he was going to tell us. My wife was just waiting here. That was thoughtless and unprofessional. We set the closing for the next day and thought everything had gone well. Then the notary called me on the way home and told me we had to do it again since the lender had messed things up again. My wife came to my office yet again. We went through 199 pages of closing documents again. The lawyer just called me again a week later and told me the lender had messed up the CD. Hes emailing it to me to sign again. Not a good experience.

Things went fast and smoothly until closing. We got the deal closed on time. Overall. it was a good experience. However, post closing, FHM does not accept online payment. That being said, before the loan being sold to some investors, i.e. a new loan servicer, borrowers have to mail checks or go with online wire transfer. Both will have additional monthly cost. Also, there is no convenient way to check the payment status, and borrowers would need to keep asking their loan officer.

I had a great experience with First Heritage. My Realtor Mrs. Meredith was GREAT. She stayed in contact with me on a daily basis. She informed me about First Heritage. Meredith put me in contact with Hunter Boyd, and he made sure that all paperwork for my loan was accurate and on time for closing. Sherry Riano entire team did an awesome job helping me through the process of closing. I really LOVE all the videos letting me know what to expect before, during, and after each phase of the loan process. I will definitely be using First Heritage again in the near future. This has been the smoothest process I ve ever had. I Recommend anyone that may be thinking of purchasing a home to give First Heritage a try FIRST. Sherry Riano entire team will make your experience GREAT & SMOOTH. THANKS

The Sherry Riano team helped me close on the house of my dreams in a matter of weeks! There was one hiccup where my contract wasn t delivered to them until almost two weeks after it was supposed to be, yet they managed to close me right on time! This was all done during a pandemic and what may be one of the craziest markets I may ever see in my lifetime. Relocating my family hundreds of miles already comes with stress, but doing so when houses are flying off the market makes it feel next to impossible. There is no doubt in my mind that without their help I would never have been able to land a home in such a competitive market. I never imagined the work this team would put in for me around the clock. Their communication and collaboration efforts with my realtor made a difficult transition almost seamless. Everything was done virtually, yet I felt like I had friend on the other end of phone calls, emails and text. The whole team was great, but Alex was the man! He met me at my level of knowledge and walked me through everything step by step. I would highly recommend them for their skill and their expertise, but most importantly their friendly and consistent communication.

They included my realtor, Pam Pegram, in all communications as well. 4) Precise documentation and easy-to-understand mortgage estimates. The fee structure was clear. 5) Most importantly, they were on-time! No hiccups or problems at closing! (They were actually ready 2-3 days before I had to close) 6) Their APR % was the best I could find of the 4 brokers I received quotes from. I highly recommend the Sherry Riano Team!

Real estate financials can seem dry and complicated. Sherry s team was part of an effort by many professionals to sell our old home and buy our new one. I am so glad we picked Marti Hampton Associates, and that she picked Sherry. We were updated throughout the process. Everything was taken care of in an experienced, professional manner. I would certainly recommend The Sherry Riano Team to anyone considering a home sale and purchase.

I had the opportunity to meet Sherry Riano through a mutual friend by phone almost 12 years ago. She was very helpful on a refinance for a property I owned in Greensboro, NC. My wife and I bought our dream home in July 2015. Sherry and her Team again assisted in the financing process, which eliminated the stress and burden of trying to find a lender you truly trust and have confidence in closing the deal. I decided in 2020 to take advantage of the low rates and called Sherry once again. Please note this was right before the pandemic hit around March, that shut down almost every business. Sherry and her Team reached out and assured me there might be a slight delay, but would be honoring my original rate even though the date had expired. The closing eventually took place via a courier service and was probably the easiest and most seem less one I have ever experienced. I have never met Sherry personally, but am proud to say I feel as though I have my own personal lender only a phone call away. Years will pass and Sherry and her Fantastic Team will still know you by name and town on the next call. I recommend her to everyone I know that are looking to purchase or just refinance. Her energetic personality and confidence just shines through the phone on each call, while making the financing process a little more rewarding.

Thanks again Sherry, you are awesome. Everything was where it needed to be on the day it needed to be there. You were clear and concise about what we needed to get to you and even better of what you needed from us. Youre the best!! Been in the house exactly 2 months and love it!

The Sherry Riano team was the first home mortgage company I worked with since it was my first time buying a house. I was recommended to them by my realtor and in the short timeframe I worked with Sherry Riano s team they were quick, responsive and very friendly. I had lots of first-timer home buying questions and they were extremely helpful with providing the answers j was looking for. Although my home mortgage was bought out by a different company I do t have much else to say. Nonetheless it was a good first experience.

I have ether financed or refinanced loans with Sherry for almost 20 years. Its very simple. She provides the best rates, closes quickly, takes care of anything that doesnt go as planned, communicates frequently, and is a pleasure to work with. She offers a hands on personal touch. At this point, I have probably used her for at least 10 loans. I couldnt imagine using anyone else.

Sherry Rianos team was helpful on an overall basis, they walked us through the necessary documents and loan arrangements. They even sent a nice little bag of of gourmet popcorn at the end. I gave them 3 stars only because I wish they addressed and acknowledged me the co-borrower (who is paying half of the money) in emails and such more and also they misspelled my name a couple of times, which is my personal pet peeve. All you have to do is copy paste :)

To say Sherry and her team were amazing would be an understatement! I was so nervous going into this process and constantly second guessing myself.

I am so grateful to Sherry, Chris, and the team. This experience was so much better then I ever expected to be !

Sherry Riano and her team are AMAZING! This was my first time purchasing a home and everyone was telling me I should go through a bank to purchase a home. After 45 days of bad communication with the bank and the sellers were about to pull out of our deal someone referred me The Sherry Riano Team. They were extraordinary! Great communication worked very fast and made sure I kept the deal and closed on time! Me and my family are very grateful for them. We will definitely buy our next home with them and I m also referring all of my friends and family to The Riano Team. and again THANKKKKK YOU !!!

This is the second time that I have worked with Sherry Riano and her team, and I highly recommend. They are thorough, they respond to my questions thoughtfully and in a timely manner, and they just made this big decision much easier and very comfortable. They were even proactive with me, through the process, to communicate with me when rates went down...and so my final refinance actually reflected a lower rate than I had locked in initially...saving me THOUSANDS of dollars. If you are looking for someone to finance or refinance, my experience now twice with Sherry and her team would lead me to encourage you to contact them - you will be a raving fan as well!

This is the second home I purchased with The Sherry Riano Team as my lender and I cant state strongly enough what excellent service they provide. Not only is everyone on the team true professionals, but as a local lender, they also make you feel as if you are their only client and friend, where they took my calls after business hours on their personal numbers when I needed them. Everyone on the team takes the time to ensure that you understand the entire process from the start to closing on a mortgage. Besides being patient and understanding, they work very diligently to ensure you get the best type of loan and rate possible, which at the end of the day is the most important part of buying a home. I tell everyone I know that is looking to purchase a home to first contact the Sherry Riano team for their mortgage needs and personally I would never want to work with anyone else! -Joel LaMonica

Huge Thanks to Sherry and her team! We were struggling to find a competitive rate on our loan for our new house until we found The Sherry Riano team. She worked very quickly with us (even though we were on the other side of the state from her team) and in addition to great service we received a really good rate. Document control was quick, easy, and secure which was important to me as well. We could not have had a better experience. Thank you so much!

Sherry, Chris, and Jordan were amazing throughout our loan process! They were super attentive, even going as far as being available for calls and questions after hours. And when things didnt go quite as planned with our closing, Jordan jumped in to try to fix it even though it had nothing to do with anything they had done. Totally pleased and would use the Sherry Riano team again in a heartbeat.
