Mechelle Bauser and her assistant Katie Wagner were a pleasure to work with. This is at least the third time we've worked with them and they are professional, helpful, and responsive. The next time we need a mortgage we will definitely contact them!

Robert B. recommends Mechelle Bauser

Mechelle walked us through purchasing our first home through a VA loan. She answered all of our questions and was incredibly pleasant throughout the whole process. We were so happy to have Mechelle recommended to us, and would recommend anyone else looking to purchase a home to see about having her as their loan officer.

I have worked with Mechelle many times over the years. Together we just completed a refinance on my home.

Her and her team did a professional job including very effective communication, and completed the refinance in a timely manner.

Colin Coate recommends Mechelle Bauser

I highly recommend Mechelle and HomeStreet. Mechelle is extremely responsive and easy to work with. My wife and I moved to Washington from out of state and our escrow period took place over the holidays. Mechelle helped us get through the purchase and escrow closed exactly on time! Thanks Mechelle!

Jennifer Carlson recommends Mechelle Bauser

Executive Director

I've worked with Mechelle for over seven years now. She and HomeStreet have had my mortgage since inception, my refinance and the mortgage on my Mother's condo. Every step of the way she has been on top of the process, documentation with underwriting and looking out for the best rates when the Fed is shifting and always looking out for my best interests.

That said, I will say on a personal level, she is a joy to work with! Mechelle always responds, is happy to have an exploratory conversation and share a point of view on where to gain best value on housing investment. Her team is also great, her work partner Katie is "on it" and those two make an incredible one-two punch.

Whether you're looking for someone to work with for one transaction or a partner on a lifetime of property investing, Mechelle is your person!

Elizabeth Ford recommends Mechelle Bauser

Mechelle and Katie were amazing to work with as always. This is our third time working with them on a mortgage or refi and they are both professional yet human. They made the process easy but informative. No question was unanswered. I will definitely be using them again.

David recommends Mechelle Bauser

Mechelle and her team were exceptional with getting us the best HELOC! We have been through this process in the past with another lender and this experience was far easier, faster, and professional. They were always available to help us through the complicated process so it didn't feel daunting and overwhelming with paperwork. We look forward to working with Mechelle and her team in the future! We have already recommended them to our neighbors!

Catherine Nickum recommends Mechelle Bauser

We have had the good fortune to refinance with Mechelle twice, and on both occasions, she was quick, efficient, helpful and understanding. She also helped facilitate HELOCs for us in both refinances which have proved to be key in moving forward with our retirement plans. Mechelle answered all our questions right away, immediately addressed concerns and always asked if there was more she could do. She rescued us from a sea of confusion at difficult times when we needed financial options. I always felt like she understood what we needed and would find a way. She's wonderful and I highly recommend her to any and all.

Mechelle listen’s to what you say and what you’re trying to do. She will help you formulate your plan. An guide you how to accomplish it. Then she and her assistant will guide you step by step and answer all your questions. Last she won’t forget about you after all is done and closed.

James Forsher recommends Mechelle Bauser

Mechelle has been our go to person for over 7 years. When we first began working with Mechelle, it was to help us refinance when we discovered we had to tear down half our house and build a new structure. Since then, we have refinanced 3 other times as the rates went substantially down. She is very professional, knows her business and we had 100% trust in her ability to do her task.
