MAKING SURE THE PIECES FIT
As you know, each real estate transaction comes with what can be an almost endless line of moving parts. That’s why it means so much to have a partner on your side to make sure they all come together in the end.
That’s where Team Lead Kimberly Altier and The Altier Mortgage Team with Union Home Mortgage come into the picture with experience, expertise and true individual care.
“I like helping my first-time homebuyers get into a home. That’s the bottom line. Along the way, I really enjoy the interaction with my title and REALTOR® partners,” Kimberly explains.
“For me, it’s about the whole package. It’s fun to facilitate the process with all these people I work with. It’s about the motion of it all and bringing everyone together. It’s a puzzle and we enjoy making sure the pieces fit.”
Learning and Growing
Kimberly brings a true wealth of experience to each interaction with her partners and clients. In fact, she has been in the industry since 1991. Through time, she owned a credit reporting company for the first 20 years of her career. She also gained experience in wholesale lending before turning her attention to retail lending with consumers in 1999.
“That’s where I really found my love for the industry,” she says with a smile. “It changed my life. I have helped so many customers. I helped a guy who was living in Austin in his car. That’s how I got into the business.”
Team Effort
Through time, Kimberly has enjoyed sharing the journey with others who have joined the team, including Jonathan Powers, who she brought on 10 years ago.
“He is my right-hand man. We’re also proud to have Kelsey on the team as our marketing person,” she smiles.
One of the key differences those who work with Kimberly and her team notice is the extreme service and communication they experience.
“We call every buyer, buyer’s agent and listing agent every Tuesday for every contract. We really do that. We probably make 25 to 100 calls, and we do it, because in this business, it really is about the communication,” she explains.
“Through that process, we find out everything that can go wrong and nip it in the bud. That’s how we can close any loan in three weeks because we do things immediately.”
True Partnership
Kimberly and the team also take pride in supporting their partners’ business by circling back when it’s time to move forward.
“We really track everything. In some cases, clients may need credit repair before they can move forward. In those cases, we work with them,” Kimberly says.
“Then, once they are ready to move ahead, we circle back to their REALTOR® and let them know that they are ready to move forward with the process again. We call it extreme customer service.”
In addition, Kimberly and her team are available to support their partners and clients on the weekends, as well.
Family Fulfillment
Away from work, Kimberly’s world is made much richer by her family. She looks forward to time with her husband, Robert Kleven of Concept Building.
She also likes spending time with their two dogs and their cat.
In her free time, she enjoys time spent at her family’s cabin, enjoying boating on the lake. She also has a passion for cooking.
Other favorites include walking, and spending time in the sun and water. She is also looking forward to completing work on her family’s pool.
When you’re looking for a partner to help you make all the pieces fit, look to Kimberly Altier and The Altier Mortgage Team.
“It’s our mission to be informative and caring,” she says. “No one is a number for us. All that we do is based on relationships and extreme customer service.”
