Working with Lisa was an insanely easy and pain free process. I knew little to nothing about the whole house buying process going into it and planned to buy a house about a year after starting to work with her. We ended up finding a great deal way earlier than expected and she got everything pushed through on super short notice. Even at the end when it looked like closing would be delayed due to forces outside her control, she still got it done and finished on our original closing day. Can't recommend her enough, we already have another friend working with her. 10/10

Lisa was amazing! She helped me throughout the whole process of buying my first home! She answered all my questions and even talked me through the scary ins and outs of the loans to purchase a house! I recommend her for any first time home buyers!!!

Lisa and her team made my first time home buyer process so seemless and smooth I kept waiting for the other proverbial shoe to drop and it never did. I enjoyed being able to use the app to upload and sign documents securely. Any and all questions were answered in a very timely manner. Lisa and her team made sure to keep me updated on the process and things I shouldn't do that would cause me loan trouble. Choosing to use this team was one of the best decisions I've made in this process! 10/10 recommend.

Feeling comfortable and being able to trust the purchasing process was my biggest concern buying my home. Lisa made it feel like it shouldn't have been on my list. Thorough yet fast, I was truly lucky having Lisa handle my mortgage!

We cannot thank Lisa and her team enough for making our first time home buying process so smooth! We were encouraged to ask as many questions as we needed and Lisa and the team always got back to us super fast. We were never left wondering what the next step was, as soon as something was checked off the list we had our next directions/tasks presented to us. We were able to secure a home within a week of being pre-approved! Do not hesitate to work with this amazing team!

This was the second time we’ve gone with Lisa at Global State Mortgage for our mortgage loan processing. She and her team are always fantastic to work with. They make things super simple throughout the whole process, are always very responsive to questions, and give solid advice on whether or not it’s advantageous to pay more $ down/buy points to lock-in rates early and/or bring down the rate etc. If we ever need to go through a mortgage closing again in the future, we’ll be sure to seek her out- Highly recommend!

Anna Crank

Lisa and her team were amazing! Got us into our home and answered all of our questions under a month. Would not hesitate at all to recommend or use Lisa again!!

I've worked with several bankers and mortgage brokers over the years both personally and professionally and by far Michael Weber and Global State are the best, most efficient and professional. The easiest recommendation I can make to anyone is to work with them.

My experience with GSM was my first experience getting a mortgage. To say I was clueless is an understatement: I had no idea what the process involved, nor that homeownership was possible for me. All of that changed when I worked with Angie Kettwig. Angie and the GSM team were incredible in helping me become a homeowner. We did everything electronically, which saved me time as a working professional. Be it via phone or email, Angie was ruthlessly responsive with her communication and walked me through the entire process from start to finish. I responded to any request within hours, and they kept the process moving. The hardest part of the whole process was converting a set of documents requested of me into PDF's, which took me all of 5 minutes. That's the extent of difficulty I had, and it was my issue alone. I told my real estate agent that if I need another mortgage in the future, I want to work with Angie. I am fortunate to have my first experience go as smoothly as it did and profoundly grateful to Angie for her role in it all! GRAZIE MILLIE!!!!!

I wouldn't have been able to purchase my current house without Lisa Severseike's help. At the time, she was only one in Ames able to provide USDA rural development loans. She made that process simple and even found me a realtor when no one would answer phone calls or emails from a girl not yet living in Iowa. Now that I have built some equity, I am trying to find a slightly bigger place in the country. Lisa's help through pre-approval process and fast answers to all my financing questions has been the easiest part of the property search.

Angela

“

Lisa and team are hands down the best. They keep you updated on where things are, and answer any question or concern with a smile. Would recommend them to anyone and everyone. We have used her twice and will go to her again if we ever look to purchase again!

Update: We used Global State Mortgage for a refinance. Once again, their knowledge and support are second-to-none. They made the process so easy, and saved us money, effort and time! Leiah and Lisa (and the rest of the team) are great!

Jerry

“

Lisa and her team were amazing throughout the whole process. When buying a home there are tons of moving parts and variables to consider. Lisa helped us so much and made a scary process for first time home buyers, worry free. Thanks so much for the amazing service!

5/5 would recommend!

Angie is wonderful to work with-she makes the entire process so easy!

Jamie

“

Lisa has done a few mortgages and refinances for us. We always come back to her because we never have any issues, things go smoothly, and she answers all kinds of questions we have as we go through the process. She is also good about telling us of all possible outcomes of the decisions we make as we go through the process, so that we are well informed.

Jeanette

Lisa and her staff at Global State Mortgage are phenomenal. They made our, first time home buyers, experience so easy and kept us up to date with what steps were next, and what to expect in the home buying process. Can't thank Global State enough for all of the help. Highly recommend.

Jon

“

Lisa and her team are absolute professionals. Their expertise with the lending process made our incredibly complicated closing go smoothly. We cannot thank her and the rest of the team at Global State enough for all they did. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a home in Central Iowa.

Angie has been phenomenal to work with! I needed a loan approved on a Saturday- boom within 15 minutes she had an approval and we were off to the races looking at houses. Throughout the whole loan process she keeps client's stress levels at zero masterfully guiding them through the home purchase process. I highly recommend Global State Mortgage and especially Angie Kettwig for all of your home mortgage needs!

Angie Kettwig has been the best loan officer, she worked non stop on our home loan. She was also able to get my son into his first home at the young age of 19. Her guidance was top notch. Also would like to add that no text went un answered no matter day or time. She was truly amazing.
