WHY THE KENNEDY TEAM?

Name someone more ingrained in the regional real estate finance community than Tammy Kennedy. In her more than 22 years serving homeowners in both Mississippi and Tennessee, her team has built a reputation through expertise in helping first-time homebuyers, rural borrowers and veterans find the home financing that fits each client’s unique individual situation. But it goes deeper than that. The Kennedy Team routinely gives back to their community by sponsoring local law enforcement events, donating to their local Olive Branch food pantry during the pandemic and being active members of more than five local realtor boards in their immediate area.

Within Nations Lending, the Kennedy Team represents one of the fastest growing branches in the company. But above all else, the Kennedy Team is dedicated to you. Our team includes:

• Dale Kennedy

By signing in digitally, each Open House attendee can easily be placed on lead capture email journeys and slotted for other follow-up communications. The best part? Total Expert automates the communication and encourages the lead to contact the real estate agent, to keep agents from constantly playing follow-up with cold leads.

We share the app with our realtor partners, and borrowers receive a simple link to the client portal, where they’ll start the loan process. Transparent communication means both real estate agent and loan originator stay informed on the client’s loan application every step of the way. Borrowers can simply snap photos of documents and upload them directly from their smartphone, and everyone gets notified at every loan milestone.
