Stacey Snowdon, a mortgage loan officer at Amerant Mortgage, considers it an honor to guide borrowers through the process of mortgage lending. With an impressive 21 years in the industry, Snowdon specializes in working with first-time homebuyers, ensuring they find a product tailored to their needs. “I love witnessing the joy of new homeowners when they finish the paperwork and are handed the keys to their new home,” she shares. “I knew from the beginning that I wanted to be part of their journey and help them realize their dreams.”

Snowdon’s dedication to her clients doesn’t go unnoticed. Known for her skill in attentive listening and timely communication, she individualizes each client’s experience to their specific needs. “I get to know my clients individually so I can assess their level of understanding of the mortgage process,” she explains.

Despite the challenges posed by the rate environment over the past year, Snowdon’s focus on first-time homebuyers has kept her at the top of the purchase business in her region. “The rate environment has been tough over the past 18 months after the historic low rates of 2020 and 2021,” she acknowledges. “I’ve been fortunate that my focus on first-time homebuyers has kept me on top.”

As a member of the National Association of Minority Mortgage Bankers of America, Snowdon stays connected with industry professionals and upholds her commitment to providing exceptional service. “It’s important to me to cater to my clients’ individual needs,” she says.

Working alongside a dedicated management and operations team, Snowdon ensures that her clients receive a great mortgage experience from application to closing. “Buying a home is one of the largest purchases a person ever makes, and I don’t take that lightly,” she says. “Being part of their journey to homeownership is an honor.”
