It's crazy to think I started my career in the mortgage industry twenty years ago. I was a temporary employee who landed an assignment at the front desk and loved the energy of the business from the very first day. I wanted to learn as much as possible, so I assisted in any area of the company they would allow me to help in, and before I knew it, I landed a job in Data Entry, and it wasn’t long before I was a Processor reviewing loan files for accuracy, completing verifications, gathering conditions, and ensuring all the documents were in the file as we moved toward Final Approval. I left the industry for quite a while, and it wasn’t until my husband and I refinanced our house in August 2020 that I started to feel that calling home. Technology had changed the business so much, but the documentation needed to put together a residential loan package was still the same. Building relationships and helping others was also still the same, so in December 2020, I made the decision to become a Mortgage Loan Officer. I felt I could make a positive contribution to people’s lives by helping them understand and navigate the process of making one of – if not the - largest investments of their lives. The chills that come with hearing the words, “Thank you for helping us get the home we are going to bring our little baby home to,” is something I don’t ever want to forget! To know I’ve helped families save money each month or finally make those home improvements by refinancing brings a kind of happiness that I don’t think many ‘jobs’ can bring. I love getting to know my clients and their goals and developing a plan that can help them get there on their timeline. I love building trust and growing friendships with my Referral Partners. It brings me joy to know they all depend on me and appreciate my dedication. They know I’m honest and transparent, and I’m going to be available and communicate information as quickly as possible. I’m learning and growing with each transaction, because this industry is everchanging, and I’m just so grateful to be a part of it all. Amanda Mulqueen

Five years of walking alongside people during one of the biggest financial decisions of their lives. Five years of learning, adapting, problem-solving, and showing up - even when the market was unpredictable, rates were high, and the path was far from easy.

This career allows me to serve others at moments that truly matter - first homes, growing families, fresh starts, refinances that bring relief, and long-term wealth building. It’s never “just a loan.” It’s strategy, education, trust, and advocacy.

Behind the scenes, this role requires constant market watch and ongoing education - rates, guidelines, program changes, economic shifts - so my clients can make informed decisions, not emotional ones. The learning never stops, and honestly, that’s one of the things I love most about it.

I’m incredibly grateful to my clients who trusted me, referral partners who believed in me, mentors who guided me, and my family who supported the long hours and late nights.

Here’s to the making year six the best yet. 🏡✨

✨ One Year at ASCEND Lending ✨

One year ago, I made the leap to the broker model and joined ASCEND Lending, and I can confidently say it’s been one of the best career decisions I’ve ever made.

Working as a broker has allowed me to:

☑️ Offer more loan options, not just one lender’s products
☑️ Shop rates and programs to find what’s actually best for my clients
☑️ Get creative with solutions for buyers, refinances, and investors
☑️ Focus on education, transparency, and long-term strategy - not sales quotas
☑️ Advocate for my clients from start to finish (and beyond closing)

This model fits me - how I work, how I think, and how I serve.

I’m excited about the future because the mortgage world is constantly evolving, and being a broker means I can evolve with it. New programs, better pricing, more flexibility, and more ways to help people reach their homeownership goals that’s what energizes me.

If you or someone you know is:

🏡 Buying their first home
🏡 Moving up or downsizing
🏡 Refinancing for a better payment or strategy
🏡 Exploring investment options

Please tell them to reach out. I’d love to be their resource, advocate, and guide through one of the biggest financial decisions they’ll ever make.

Here’s to growth, gratitude, and what’s ahead. ❤️💙

Grateful doesn’t even begin to describe it ❤️

Helping a friend refinance their home and hearing feedback like this reminds me why I love what I do. Every smooth, stress-free closing is the result of clear communication, trust, and teamwork.
I made sure to thank him for trusting me once again - and this awesome review - it truly means the world.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Happy Closing Day to my client - and friend! 🏡✨

I’ve been monitoring interest rates for him since he purchased his home about a year and a half ago, and with the recent decrease, the timing was perfect for a Rate/Term Refinance to lower his monthly payment. It feels so good knowing I helped him achieve his goal - and that he trusted my advice and allowed me to guide him through the process once again means so much, especially today.

Exactly one year ago, I was let go from my previous company. I could’ve given up, but I didn’t. Today, I’m proud to say I work for myself, and I’m on track to have my best month in the past year.

My Mortgage Loan Originator license is sponsored by ASCEND Lending, where I’m surrounded by likeminded professionals who genuinely want to see each other succeed. We celebrate each other’s wins, and when things get tough, there’s always someone willing to lend a hand.

I’m grateful for the hard times and the lessons they brought. I’m thankful for this career and the opportunities it gives me to make a difference - one home, one client, one moment at a time. ❤️

Every new school year takes me right back to when I returned to work after having her. After spending all day, every day together for months, our bond grows even deeper - and the thought of being apart feels like tearing away a piece of my heart. I remember rocking her in my arms, tears streaming down my face, wondering how I could possibly spend ten hours a day away from my baby. Back then it felt impossible. Now I know we can do it… but that familiar ache still sits heavy in my chest, and my eyes keep filling with tears no matter how many times I wipe them.

This year feels even harder - she’s starting at a brand new school where she doesn’t know a single person, and we REALLY miss her old one. I can only imagine how overwhelming this is for her. Dropoff was hard. She cried. I cried. To me, it feels just like the first time we left her with a childcare provider at four months old. I’m filled with uncertainty and hopeful I made the right decision.

Through the tears this morning, Herbie and I reminded her that she is brave and strong, and that she’s got this. I pray her first day is wonderful, and that her whole year is even better than we could have dreamed. Shine bright, beautiful girl - you’ve got the whole world ahead of you ❤️

🎉 Big milestone for my clients - they’re officially Conditionally Approved!

These first-time homebuyers have been working hard over the past three months, and today we hit a huge step forward in their journey to homeownership.

🔍 So what is a Conditional Approval?
It means their loan has been reviewed by underwriting and meets the lender’s guidelines- with just a few final conditions left to satisfy (things like updated documents, insurance, or title work). Once those are complete, we’ll be Clear to Close!

Every first-time buyer deserves someone who will walk them through the process with care, clear communication, and a game plan. I’m proud to be that person for them. 🏡
