Q&A with Kristy Ragsdale

Why did you decide on your career?

You see the joys and achievement it brings to families.

I can’t recommend Kristy Ragsdale at BankSouth Mortgage highly enough! As a first-time homebuyer, I was nervous about the process, but Kristy made the entire experience incredibly smooth and stress-free. From the very beginning, she took the time to understand my specific needs and tailored the entire process to suit them. Her communication was outstanding every step of the way, keeping me updated and answering all of my questions in a timely manner. Kristy’s expertise and promptness made everything feel easy and efficient. Thanks to her, what could have been a stressful experience turned into a truly enjoyable one. I’m beyond grateful for her guidance and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a mortgage expert who genuinely cares!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Kristy Ragsdale during our homebuying journey, and I can't recommend her highly enough. From start to finish, Kristy was incredibly thorough and transparent, ensuring that I understood every step of the process. Their dedication to clear communication made what could have been a stressful experience much more manageable. What truly set Kristy apart was their ability to offer creative and effective alternatives whenever we encountered challenges. Their proactive approach and problem-solving skills were invaluable, and they always had our best interests at heart. Thanks to Kristy, I felt confident and well-supported throughout the entire process. If you’re looking for a mortgage loan officer who goes above and beyond, look no further than Kristy Ragsdale! Best Regards, Charles & Tanika Pitts

Kristy is absolutely amazing. I spoke with Kristy for the first time on 8/6/24 and I closed on my house on 9/23/24. She went above and beyond of what the first 2 mortgage lenders that I applied to did. She handled my case as if she was buying the house for herself, and on at least 3 occasions I told her that it feels like she is going above and beyond to get me into this house. She just laughed and said that she was going to get me into that home. Don't waste your time going somewhere else when Kristy will work as hard for you as you would work for yourself. The dates above tell the story and now I am in a brand new home in a brand new community ; thanks to Kristy Ragsdale at BankSouth.

Kristy made my dream of owning a home come true! She and her team are efficient, transparent, and really good at what they do. I called poor Daniel 50 times to ask about certain documents needed and he always answered the phone and was ready to help. I love that there’s an online portal to submit your documents—no more emails all over the place, just upload and keep it moving. Kristy is very well versed with the many loan products available on the market and she can work out the best course of action to what works for your budget and lifestyle. I am really happy that Smith Douglas Homes uses Bank South as a preferred lender—the entire process was so EASY!!! My closing was 1/2 digital and I was done signing in about 30 minutes thanks to the technology of her team.
