“Shawn did an awesome job with his presentation at the luncheon. He was very informative and gave us a lot of tools to use in our real state industry to help benefit our buyer and seller clients.”
“As a transaction coordinator, I've worked with this team on several closings. I appreciate this lending team's responsiveness, attention to detail, and clear communication. They make every closing smooth and efficient.”
“Shawn Kaplan and his team have been an absolute blessing to our family in finding our first home! Shawn and his team were kind, gracious and working with us around the clock whenever we needed assistance. We will absolutely be using Shawn and his team again and this was an absolute breeze of a home buying experience!”
“Shawn Kaplan, Heather McGarry and the Kaplan Team of CrossCountry Mortgage Lender in Franklin, TN were a pleasure to work with when we financed our home purchase. They made sure everything was done on time and that it all went smoothly. They kept us up to date on each step along the way and locked in our rate at the most advantageous time. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase or refinance a home!”
Sample workshop scenario · illustrative, not a testimonial
From “I'm waiting”
to a real conversation.
Imagine a real estate team working through a buyer's objection: “I'm waiting for rates to drop.” In a Winning With Objections workshop, attendees could practice responses, role-play the conversation, and leave with scripts to use in their next follow-up.
