Laura made a very big process so simple! She listened to what we wanted to do then guided us smoothly through the process to achieve our goals. Laura was always available to assist us in completing what was needed in a timely manner. Questions? She will answer them right away! Laura was very good at communicating where we were in the process and what was needed.

Homebuyer

Laura was available at a moments notice even during weekends when offers were due. She explained our options; the process and presented the calculations costs and benefits of each. She expedited our home buying process at several key times (escalation offers, appraisal, etc:), Even our realtor was impressed at her responsiveness as we had several offers that we were outbid due to our o personal price point cutoff. In the end she made the home buying process smoother!

Local 242 laborer

Before i started looking for a loan, I considered to use a local small bank! The last two houses i had they were financed by home street bank and i was really happy, but my loan was sold to a different bank. That i didn’t like, but i decided to use the same bank again so the day i went to my local bank i met Laura Unruh and i thought was it luck or destiny but i struck gold, Laura made my experience so easy she is a straight shooter just like me and she explained everything to the dot and when i found the right house closing the deal was so smooth, my agent said Laura made her job so easy and coordinating between escrow , my agent listing agent and Laura was so easy! So if anyone is in the process of buying a house Laura wont let you down!!

Laura Unruh is highly professional and knowledgeable. We worked with her on our primary mortgage and most recently on HELOC. Her approach is very personable. We felt that she cared, her explanations of financial matters were excellent.
We’d work with her again and would definitely recommend her to others.
Thank you Laura so much!

Laura was the best. Once we contacted her showing our interest in buying a home she was on the job. Gave us great recommendations on various options. She handled all the paperwork, since we lack online experience. She is very knowledgeable and willing to help. Phone calls were returned promptly, couldn’t ask for a better experience when it came to getting our home loan. Quick and efficient. Highly recommend.

Laura took excellent care of us from beginning to end. She helped us navigate all of the necessary paperwork and even followed up while on her vacation so as to make signings possible in a timely fashion.
We both would highly recommend using her, as well as HomeStreet, for all of your mortgage needs.

N/A

To customers and non customers of Homestreet Bank.

I am Homestreet Bank customer for about 20 years. In general, HSB is my favorite bank due to good services, friendliness, professionalism, mostly the teller staff is very friendly and helpful people.
Then, in August of 2022, one of the bank staff has introduced me to discuss with Laura about the Home equity loan. When my wife and I met Laura first time, I can feel that I meet the right person to discuss about Home Equity Loan HELOC. Me and my wife are in fixed income of retirement. The 2 previous banks, that we have contacted denied to help us when they learned that we are in fixed income.
Then, we contact Laura on the phone. She right away invited us to discuss with her at her office in Kent. On the first day, we can feel the hope about we might getting the loan. Laura is a unique individual that LISTEN to us and she tried to find ways to find the positive ways to meet the requirements.explain to us very clear about the loan and any requirements for the loan. Laura is willing to talk to us at her office or on the phone on any questions that we do not understand. Laura is a GOLDEN bridge for us to connect with the under writer loan. It is very important that you have a GOLDEN BRIDGE to help, so you can feel very confidence that you have a lot of chance to get a loan.
In brief, I would like to strongly recommend to all bank customers to talk with Laura first before you talk to any bank. You will feel welcome and hope on your first day when you meet her.
This is my honest recommendation from my experience with Laura Unrush.
Laura, on behalf of my family, I would like to express my deep gratitude in helping me for this HELOC loan, Please accept our highest considerations from our family.

Best wish to all.
Laura is very professional, friendly, polite,

If you're looking for a no nonsense Senior Loan officer who only has your best interest at heart and is a straight shooter, your search is over. She has become part of the our family helping me in financing my home and my son's three investment properties as well. Anyone I've known looking to purchase or refinance a home, Laura is the "only" one I recommend. Professional, Thorough and Honest.

Laura has helped me so much throughout the time I've worked with her.
She was able to help me purchase the home I currently live in and even refinance it.
She's been nothing but wonderful and even provided her services to me during her vacation time which is something most people don't do.
She is a very professional woman and knows how to get the job done.

Have been working with Laura for well over 15 years and she has always had our interests at hand. The latest project was a HELOC which was tough at best- sent both our kids to her for loans and had a great experience. As both my wife and I own businesses we know and appreciate the value of a professional - highly recommend her!

Laura is fantastic! Refinancing with minimal face to face interaction can prove tricky. She made it flawless! Communicating via phone and email never became a problem and she helped us with all our questions as this was our first refinance. We appreciate all of her hard work and look forward to using her and Homestreet in the future.
