Q&A with Kim King

What made you decide to be a BankSouth Loan Officer?

There are quite a few reasons I became a BankSouth Mortgage Loan Officer over 5 years ago. After being in the mortgage industry for decades, I wanted to work with a smaller company who values their employees and does what it takes to ensure a smooth and successful financing experience, as well as close loans on time! I talked with a number of people that were employed by BankSouth, many of whom I’ve worked with throughout the years, and I knew this was where I wanted to be. The experience and knowledge at BankSouth Mortgage exceeded my expectations and continues to do so every single year.

List 1-3 reasons you’re different than others in your profession?

I like to be professional, personable and friendly! I want my buyers to be well informed but have fun during the mortgage transaction. Purchasing a home, especially for first time home buyers, can be stressful and emotional, I want my buyers to feel comfortable have a stress free home buying experience!

List up to 3 things you enjoy doing on weekends.

Mortgage Market Interest Rates

Interest rates for mortgages can vary significantly from one borrower to the next based on the specific details of the transaction. Some of the main factors that affect the interest rate are credit score, down payment or loan-to-value, the type of mortgage, and how long the interest rate is locked.

The information below depicts average rates on a national level. These rates are not specific to BankSouth Mortgage but are provided to give a general idea of where rates are nationally for different loan types. This information is calculated from actual locked rates with customers across 35% of all mortgage transactions nationwide.

The OBMMI™ methodology takes the average rate of all appropriate interest rates locked through the Optimal Blue, LLC (“Optimal Blue”) product and pricing engine (“PPE”) on a given day. No adjustments to the rates that account for buy-up or buy-down decisions made by individuals are performed.

Kim was a pleasure to work with. She promptly answered all of my questions and was very forthcoming with her own correspondence to keep me informed on every step of the financing process. It has been evident that she takes pride in her work and works with her clients' interests in mind.

Kim King communicated everything very clearly and why we needed what was requested throughout the entire process. The assistants were very helpful as well. Kim King came to our closing to see the entire process through. I can't thank her and the staff enough for helping my wife and I with purchasing the house.

Though, the home buying process was stressful with the end goal in sight and such a daunting prospect, it was a delight to be served and to receive abundant support from the team at Bank South. Kim King and the team made me feel very comfortable, and even with all my financial shortcomings, they never led me to believe that they were not doing everything they could to assist me and my family into our first home. The instant kinship with her and Roxie was of such great consolation. My family and I will be forever grateful for all their diligence and hard work even down to the last minute at closing. Oh yeah, my realtor was awesome. Great guy! Love him!

Kim was extremely patient with me and my busy schedule- she would send me e-mails with information, as well as follow up texts/calls to touch base and reiterate the most important information/upcoming deadlines. I cannot thank Kim enough- I could not have been able to navigate the home buying process without her!
