The local branch at Village Park was established in June 2011 led by Jerry and Kelli Fowler of “The Fowler Team.” In 2012, Russ Mitchell joined the Fowler Team and is located at BankSouth’s Lake Oconee Branch. “Our team is extremely knowledgeable of the area and is able to assist residents and newcomers with their home financing needs. BankSouth Mortgage is one of the largest mortgage companies in Georgia and is backed by our local community bank. We are able to offer a large variety of products and services while maintaining local, personal service,” said BankSouth Mortgage Senior Mortgage Banker Kelli Fowler. In 2017, Jerry Fowler received the Mortgage Bankers Association of Georgia’s Presidents Award for the 4th year in addition to being recognized as a leader in the industry receiving the Platinum Award for the 10th consecutive year. The Fowler Team and BankSouth Mortgage pride themselves on being industry experts and delivering the highest level of customer service with in house processing, underwriting and closing. “BankSouth Mortgage brings a superior level of expertise and local knowledge,” said BankSouth Vice President of Marketing Amy Miller. “The mortgage process can be complex and using a local lender is extremely important to help ensure everything goes as smoothly as possible. It makes a big difference when you have a team working on your side that you can easily reach with questions or updates. They know the area and are available to walk you through the process each step of the way. In addition, our bank and mortgage teams work together to provide a comprehensive banking relationship to best meet customers’ needs.” Primarily serving customers in the Southeast, BankSouth Mortgage specializes in conventional, jumbo, FHA, VA, USDA and home equity loans, as well as refinances, second mortgages and custom and home improvement loans. Today, BankSouth Mortgage consists of 10 mortgage branch locations including Lake Oconee as well as Atlanta, Milton, Kennesaw, Gwinnett, Peachtree City, Athens, Columbus and Savannah. “BankSouth Mortgage is backed by one of the top performing community banks in the nation and offers premier mortgage services with 10 locations and a wide area network of strategically placed “best in class” loan originators in the southeast,” Miller said. According to Miller, in September 2008, industry veteran, Kim Nelson, founded a mortgage company at the height of a financial crisis. Nelson was confident she could bring a better option for consumers’ mortgage experience. Beginning with only 10 employees, the company originated loans as a brokerage, primarily utilizing BankSouth as a warehouse line. Through this interaction, Harold Reynolds, CEO of BankSouth, and Nelson began to realize the entities both offered each other a complimentary partnership with aligned strategic goals, vision and principals. In February 2011, BankSouth opened BankSouth Mortgage. Today, Kim Nelson leads the bank’s mortgage company subsidiary and has become the #1 new construction lender in Georgia in 2016. Over the past six years, BankSouth and BankSouth Mortgage have worked to provide greater market coverage and comprehensive products and services, building its brand reputation on a promise of mortgage excellence. “Our priority is to always provide superior customer service and to serve as a trusted advisor for our customers,” Fowler said.
