Michele and her team were the absolute best!!! Patient with questions, detailed with instructions, proactive in communication, and ensured I got the best rate and conditions possible for my loan.
“Michele is engaging and works really extremely hard to help her clients get to the closing table.”
If you are planning to buy a home or need to refinance to get cash out or just improve your interest rate, I strongly recommend Michele Ballard at Rate for all your mortgage lending needs in Tennessee, especially in the Greater Nashville/Middle Tennessee area. Michele is engaging and works really extremely hard to help her clients get to the closing table.
I recommend her to every one of my real estate clients and friends. Michele is the kind of loan officer who comes to closing to celebrate with you if she is able to make it (which is a lot). The next time I need a home loan here in Wilson County, she will be my first and last call. I know that she's going to do what it takes to get to "yes."
Michele has been lending for over 20 years now, so she's seen good, bad, and neutral real estate markets. There's no one I would rather consult about lending in our area. Be sure to follow her on FB and/or IG to see some great videos about current trends in the mortgage industry and real estate.

Our POC, Michelle was wonderful to work with. She was a great asset to us during the entire process, always keeping us up to date on how the loan was progressing. She was even nice enough to get the ball rolling while she was on vacation, which tells us that she really enjoys her work. She even showed up to our closing so we could meet in person. One of Michele’s coworkers, Jennifer was also extremely nice to work with. They made a trying experience much easier for us, which we greatly appreciated. Thank you!
