New American Funding Reviews

Kendra was easy to communicate with. She was always available to answer any questions or concerns that I had. Made the process easy and smooth. Highly recommend anyone in her direction if you're shopping for a home.

Kendra was an absolute pleasure to work with. She laid out multiple financing options for me and walked me through each to make sure I fully understood and could make the best decision. She was friendly, accessible, knowledgeable, and quickly gained my trust. I'm 100% sure that her due diligence and willingness to get my approval letter over to my realtor on a Sunday in a 6 offer situation is the reason I'm living in the lovely home I'm in. Without hesitation I would recommend Kendra.

Kendra was amazing to work with. She was always there to answer any questions and would often times reach out to me about my questions before I was even able to ask them. Made this as easy as refinancing a house can be! Loved her and will/am recommending her to everyone.

Kendra was knowledgeable about the home buying process and very friendly. She made the buying process less stressful and did everything she could to answer all of our needs and constant questions. We would definitely use her again.

Not often do you find a loan originator that is truly a friend through the entire loan process. Kendra is exactly that, a very talented professional loan originator that also cares about the human dynamics behind the scenes. I have a family situation which demands most of my time making it almost impossible to even consider closing on a new home. At my request, Kendra oversaw our loan personally for the entire loan process. She made herself available to my questions and helped us make the right decision for our family. I am grateful to Kendra and her team for serving our family’s needs effortlessly.

From day one Kendra was a fantastic person to work with. She had me at ease throughout the process and adequately explained things that I had difficulty processing. She has proven to be dedicated to her task while simultaneously performing dudiligence for the lender and me the borrower. Kendra is a consummate professional and will be highly recommended by me to all that I know or converse with that are in search of a lender. Thanks Kendra.

I originally found Cardinal Financial through the Zillow Mortgage-Rate search feature. Shortly after filling out my info I was contacted by Kendra Lamanna, as well as several other LOs from several other companies. From our very first interaction all the way through closing day, Kendra was nothing but polite and helpful. She encourage me to shop around if I needed to in order to feel comfortable on the 'deal' (rates & costs) that Cardinal was presenting. Our sellers were in a rush and asked us for a 28 day close ... GASP. I thought, "NO WAY". Kendra said "not a problem ... Cardinal's average time to close is 3 weeks". After making the decision to procure my mortgage through Cardinal, Kendra made sure I was informed every step of the way. I told her I was a natural worrier, especially with this being my first mortgage, so she even called to give me a heads up to expect a couple things coming down the pipe line and their was nothing to be alarmed about. She made the daunting process feel personal, which was a nice reassurance for my wife and I. One of my favorite things about this whole process was Cardinal's online 'document portal'. It was amazing and so seamless. Separate line items for each document needed, and you're able to just drag and drop the files. The Cardinal team is then able to review and process, and even send items back to you with notes if more detail or info is needed. This kept the entire process extremely organized, and I raved about it to some other friends going through the same thing. After all was said and done, we had the clear to close 7 days before our scheduled closing date ... Yes folks, Kendra held up to her 3 week average! Would highly recommend Kendra and Cardinal. One side note I would recommend to anyone working with Cardinal: there were a couple of times where I noticed some fees or charges change from one disclosure to the next, for no explainable reason. Kendra said sometimes the system is a little 'wonky', so we weren't sure why it was done. This is no reflection of Kendra whatsoever, she corrected those items immediately and without issue. Just make sure you're closely monitoring the disclosures from one to the next for changes.

This was my first time using Cardinal Financial and having Kendra as my loan agent for purchasing an investment property. Kendra was professional and always prompt on responding. She was patient with me during the time when we were still building the trust— she always provided the information that I asked for right away, she kept me on top of things, and she initiated actions to unblock anything that was in the way. Here’s an example of why I appreciate having Kendra on my team: the closing day was postponed and Kendra was on top of it right away, working with her team to help me get the closing day extended before I even asked for. She was managing the whole process (from pre-qualifying to closing) as a top A-player. I am glad she’s found me and played an important part of the property purchase. A few other notes on why this was a positive experience: 1. The number breakdowns and documents were well organized when presented to me. It was easy to consume. 2. The numbers were meeting my needs right from the beginning without the back-and-forth. 3. I was able to see the updates on any line item in real time in their document portal, which they highlighted in bold. 4. If the main contacts couldn’t respond right away, then the whole team jumps on. I was confused about a matter at one point, then I received calls immediately from two members who answered my questions.
