Why John Shea?

As a mortgage professional, my number one goal is to provide the best possible service to my clients. When you work with me to purchase or refinance your home, you will have access to me at all times, and will be kept up to date on the progress of your loan throughout the process. I understand how stressful the process can be, and realize how important it is to communicate as we work to get you to the closing table. I believe that building a successful business in the mortgage industry requires a customer centric approach, and this is what you will experience when working with me.

I have partnered with a team at Nations Lending with the same goals, and approach in mind. Together, we are dedicated to making the home buying or refinancing process a positive one!

What a treat it was to work with John! He did an amazing job of helping me refinance my loan. Not only do his people skills make for an enjoyable process, but he obviously has a great deal of knowledge, experience and confidence in what he does. Also, I appreciated that he always responded to my questions with great patience. Happily I got the amount of cash that I needed with this refi, at a great rate and everything was done with the utmost care and sensitivity to my specific needs. Thanks John!

John’s experience, knowledge, confidence and great personality made this process easy for me. He went to great lengths to keep the stress off me and stayed in touch keeping me well informed each step of the way. He also secured for me a lower interest rate below what we had initially discussed. I give him the highest ratings for a mortgage lender. He is really one of the good ones who gets the job done, truly cares about your situation, knows his stuff and is just a really nice guy. I highly recommend him.

Digital Open-House Sign in Sheet

Real Estate agent partners can bring their Open Houses into the 21st Century with this dynamic, handy tool. 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.

Realtor Support

Realtors love our marketing assistant program because they can rely on our LOMAs to consistently provide marketing materials for each for their listings. From new listing kits, open house marketing kits, social media posts, to property websites we’ve get them covered. Our LOMA service can even help realtor partners drive new leads by giving them lead generation tools they can use.

Within our community

With our Nations Lending team generating additional leads and distributing them to your team of Realtors, you will have a recruiting advantage within your market. 80% of these exclusive, pre-approved leads DO NOT have an established relationship with a realtor. Our marketing team then customizes ads targeting these leads and people like them, which can be based on your listings. Nations Lending acquired 2.3 million of these leads across the company in 2020.

Within your industry

Our industry is changing quickly. Even quasi-partners like Zillow have started to encroach on our core business model of Real Estate Agency and Mortgage Lending. Zillow and others, like Lending Tree, will be direct competitors in the future. So, why not partner with a local entrepreneur who is engaged and invested in our community, and is fully backed by a lender that is positioned to continually invest heavily in technology/marketing? Partner with a local entrepreneur who understands that 95% of buyer journeys start online. But perhaps most importantly, partner with a local entrepreneur who cares enough to give your Realty team the service and attention you deserve and should expect, so we both grow, as partners.

Nations Lending fosters relationships like this one through paid search, social media ad buys and other avenues. We are ready to commit to a partner with whom we will share our resources and knowledge-base

Buyer Seminars will also be a great educational asset for your clients, whether they’re first-time homebuyers or real estate investors. But why stop there? Let’s combine forces to build both brands around town with co-sponsored community events. The sky is truly the limit with this potential partnership.

Your Client Portal

Nations Lending employs the industry-leading Blend Point-Of-Sale system, which makes the digital application and loan milestone process faster and easier than ever. 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 you 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 you’ll be notified at every loan milestone.
