Amy O'Rourke

I have been with Homestead Funding for six years and have been in the mortgage industry for 14 years. I started working with mortgages in 2000 after moving back to the Capital District from Long Island after I had two children; I wanted to raise my children in Upstate NY where I was born and raised. Prior to joining the mortgage industry, I was a Senior Sales Consultant in Long Island for 12 years and made the Presidents Club three out of the twelve years. I currently live in Niskayuna. I was born in Schenectady and went to high school at Niskayuna High and attended SUNY Cortland. I went back to school after receiving my Bachelor’s degree to obtain my paralegal certificate. I was working in banking at the time and thought it could provide me with additional skills that could help my career. During my free time, I enjoy gardening and reading. I am patient, caring and compassionate and love to work with first time homebuyers. I look to provide my customers with the best financing program available to them. I watch financial markets carefully so I can offer up-to-date information to my customers. I spend a lot of time at open houses, at least 8 hours per week, offering my help to homebuyers. I am available to my clients 24/7 and do my very best to return phone calls within two hours if I am unavailable when needed.
