About me
Hello and welcome to my web page. I'm so happy you're here! I'm Heather Shanaman, a Mortgage Loan Officer, based in Ephrata, PA. I haven't always been a loan officer, but I've been in the business since 2001. I worked behind the scenes in most roles but found that I was able to really connect with people and I needed to make the move to a full-time loan officer. I have a passion for helping others whether it be personally or professionally. I've had my share of ups and downs in life, so I understand where you're coming from. I take the time to really listen to you, to understand you, so I can help you find the best mortgage loan product to fit your needs. You may be buying your first, or last home, maybe refinancing or investing in real estate. No matter what your needs and dreams are, I'm here to walk you through it all. My goal is to make this as easy and as enjoyable as possible and to lower the stress you may feel as you go through this process. This is a big step and it would be my pleasure to help you navigate this time of your life.
