Mortgage Lending
A very important part, if not critical, in real estate is mortgage lending.
Unless you pay cash to purchase a property, a mortgage loan for your home purchase is the first step in any real estate transaction.
But when it comes to mortgage lending, shopping around, choosing and working with the right competent mortgage lender is one of the most mission critical aspects to your real estate transaction.
A mortgage loan is a product in your purchase and serviced by a mortgage lender. There is a vast array of different mortgage loan products for just about any situation in Connecticut or Rhode Island – and rate and fees alike will vary by lender. Mortgage products tend to change regularly and then some – usually tied into our national American economic performance.
Mortgage lenders also come in different forms. It can be a mortgage broker, a mortgage banker, a traditional bank, a credit union, a financial institution of some sort, or a private lender.
So how to navigate in all this?
Simple. Start your real estate process with me. I can then direct you to the most competent and experienced mortgage lender or lenders for your needs and requirements matched to your situation.
I have been in the real estate business for quite some time. I know how to navigate the mortgage lending business. I know and associate myself with the pros in the business. I can give you our independent advice.
Less time wasted. More to the point in getting things done.

My husband & I recently purchased a home in the Mystic area, thanks to the tireless efforts of Bridget Morrissey. We were from out of town, and she did so much to help us, from a long-distance, locate just the perfect place. She is a successful real estate agent who has a vast network of contacts within the Mystic, Stonington, and Westerly area. She knows other real estate agents and brokers, potential buyers and sellers, and all the other players in the real estate industry, such as appraisers, home inspectors, and mortgage loan officers. It was a pleasure to work with her, and we would HIGHLY recommend her to others.

Five Star Professional has named the Connecticut recipients of the 2017 Five Star Professional Real Estate Agent award and for the third year in a row Bridget Morrissey is one of the honorees. The award winners appear in a special section of Connecticut magazine.
Five Star Professional partnered with Connecticut magazine to find real estate agents who satisfy five objective eligibility and evaluation criteria that are associated with real estate agents who provide quality services to their clients. Fewer than seven percent of the real estate agents in Connecticut were selected.
Award candidates were identified through nominations received by consumers. A survey was provided to all Connecticut residents (more than 5,800 households surveyed) who purchased a home over $150,000 within a 12-month period.
Survey recipients were asked to evaluate real estate agents with whom they have worked and evaluate them based upon ten criteria. Each award candidate was reviewed for disciplinary actions, customer complaints and regulatory actions as reported by regulatory agencies.
Five Star Professional conducts market-specific research to identify service professionals who provide quality services to their clients. Five Star Professional joins forces with city and regional magazines to make the research results available to consumers in more than 45 markets across the United States and Canada.

Had a great experience with Bridget. Was doing all the research ourselves but it was Bridget who learned our tastes and sent us a brand new listing the day it went live, and not a minute too soon. We would have missed out on the house we ended up purchasing had Bridget not been on top of it. We searched for over two years, but it was only after working with Bridget that we found the right house and closed the deal. A pleasure to deal with, will definitely engage again for our next real estate venture!

Bridget helped us buy our home, then sell it once we were ready to move back to our home state. She listens, works tirelessly to find what you need, keeps you informed during the buy/sell process, makes sure you have a contact if she'll be away but more importantly treats you like family. She goes beyond just selling you a home, she's a great person - that helped us during some dark times and gave us a home that made our days brighter.

We asked Bridget to assess the value our home. She was here within the week and was thorough inside and out.

We were coming from out of town to purchase a house on a very tight timeline and arrived in inclement weather which meant that some of our showings cancelled on us. We found one house we really liked but there were two competing offers. Bridget gave us spot-on advice about what kind of offer we should make to beat out the competing bids and helped us set up financing over the Christmas holiday when our normal banks couldn't help us. She was very responsive throughout the process and helped guide us through the first-time home buying process with her extensive local knowledge and contacts.

Bridget has worked with us for over a year in assuring that our house sold. We came upon hard times due to my husband’s cancer and although we had to go into a short sale, she stayed with us and kept on reassuring us and encouraging us. She never waivered, even as she went through her own trying times. I would recommend her to anyone, and plan on using her in the sale of my parent’s home where we now live with them in their golden years.
