For Kari Summerall, mortgage lending is all about connecting personally, finding solutions and taking time to explain the process. Working in the mortgage industry since 2006, and specifically as a loan officer since 2015, Kari has the insight to help simplify and streamline the steps. She uses her knowledge to guide clients through any loan program, including new construction and lot loans. Her exceptional service has earned her several accolades, but Kari says the best awards are the letters and emails she receives from satisfied customers.
An Oregon native, Kari is proud to call Portland home. In her spare time, she enjoys camping, traveling and hitting the beach with her husband, three kids and two rambunctious dogs. She also supports the Children's Cancer Association, an organization that brings joy to kids fighting life-threatening illnesses.
