Our Mission

Our mission at Good News Lending is simple yet profound: "Providing the Extraordinary Mortgage Experience." We understand that obtaining a mortgage can be one of your most significant financial decisions. Our mission is to ensure that the loan process is the easiest part of your home-buying journey. We believe in transparency, proactive communication, and meticulous preparation to eliminate last-minute surprises. Your closing day should be a celebration, not a day of stress, and we're here to make that a reality for you.

We Believe

At Good News Lending, our beliefs guide our actions and define our commitment to you:

Choosing Your Lender First

We encourage you to choose your lender before looking for a home, as it sets the foundation for a smooth homebuying process.

The Easy Loan Process

We believe the loan process should be the easiest part of buying a home, and we make every effort to ensure it is.

Answering Your Questions

We're here to answer as many questions as possible to help you feel confident and informed.

Second Chances

Even if you've been turned down elsewhere, you can still get a loan from us.

Personalized Support

Our online applications work best with a 15-minute follow-up phone call to tailor your experience to your needs.

Understanding Your Comfort

We recognize that what you qualify for and are comfortable with may differ.

Putting Your Interests First

Having your best interests at heart sometimes means suggesting another lender.

The First 5 Days

We understand that the first five days after you're under contract are the most critical.

No Surprises

We believe you should never be surprised about how much cash you need or your monthly payment.

Efficiency

You should never be asked for a document more than once.

Giving Back

We firmly believe in giving back to our community and making a positive impact. Beau Thompson is not only a mortgage expert but also an active member of the Memphis community. He's involved in local charities, community organizations, and his church. We believe you make a living by what you get, but you make a life by what you give. Our commitment to giving back extends beyond the world of mortgages and into the heart of Memphis.

Experience isn't expensive; it's priceless. We believe that mortgages are not just transactions; they put families in homes. Your closing date matters most, and we're here to celebrate, not stress you out, on that day. You can get everything the online lenders promise from us locally.

At Good News Lending, we're more than a mortgage provider; we're your partners in achieving your homeownership dreams. Contact us today, and let us show you how we can make a difference in your home-buying journey.

Wendy personally took care of our loan. I submitted an application prior to 7AM and she called me at 7! I have gone through 4 mortgage processes and have never had a better experience. She was on point with her estimates and the process proceeded with such ease. I was actually calling HER asking "do you need anything?" because it was almost TOO smooth from my prior experience.

Wendy and her team are absolutely amazing! My home purchase (and future refinance when rates dropped) went smoothly and were effortless on my part. Wendy answered all my questions and gave insightful advice throughout the process. I highly recommend Wendy and her team with all your home financing and refinancing needs!

I have never experienced the level of professionalism and courtesy than I did with Wendy Thompson's team. They go out their way to ensure that everything is done to the best that it can. They were always there to answer any questions and provide assistance to any problems that we had. I will say that I will never use anyone else again as long as Wendy is in business.
