I have worked every side of a real estate transaction — as a REALTOR®, a loan officer, and a title professional. I know exactly where deals fall apart. That's why I only refer my buyers to Sean Herrero: 10-day close, cash-competitive financing, and a written EMD guarantee.
"I have worked every side of a real estate transaction. That experience taught me exactly what matters — and who you can truly trust."Maureen Buck · Your Realtor, Your Advisor, Your Friend · Windermere Signature Properties · Auburn, CA
Most agents know real estate from one angle. Maureen knows it from three. She has worked as a REALTOR®, as a loan officer, and at a title company, giving her a behind-the-scenes understanding of the entire transaction that very few agents can offer. She knows exactly where deals go wrong — and makes sure they don't.
A California native who now proudly calls Placer County home, Maureen lives on a 14-acre property in the Sierra Foothills. That genuine love for this region shows in everything she does. And the lender she refers her buyers to is no exception.
From the foothills to the Bay, Maureen helps buyers and sellers across Placer County and the surrounding communities find their place, and the right financing to get them there.
Sellers love cash offers because they remove the biggest unknown: the lender. Missed deadlines, surprise conditions, and poor communication cost buyers deals every single day. When I refer you to Sean, I'm telling you and the seller that your financing is as certain as cash. That changes everything.
Sean fully pre-underwrites your loan before you write an offer. Your financing is verified and certain before you're ever in contract. Sellers and listing agents across Placer County and the Sierra Foothills notice immediately.
Cash-CompetitiveMost lenders take 30 to 45 days. Sean closes in as little as 10. In Auburn, Meadow Vista, and Grass Valley, that speed can be the deciding factor between winning and losing the home you want.
10-Day CloseIf a lender error on Sean's part causes your loan to fail and the seller keeps your Earnest Money, Sean pays it back in full. Written guarantee. Not a talking point.
Earnest Money ProtectedIf you have equity in your current home, you may not need to wait. Sean helps homeowners unlock that equity to buy their next home first, so you can move on your terms, skip the double move, and sell your current home from a position of strength, not pressure.
Ask Sean How It WorksIf Sean's team makes a lender error that causes your loan to fail, and the seller tries to keep your Earnest Money Deposit, Sean will write you a check for the full amount. This is a written commitment, and it's why I trust him with every buyer I refer.
*EMD Guarantee applies in documented cases where a lender error on Sean Herrero's part directly causes loan failure and contract cancellation. Terms discussed at consultation. CrossCountry Mortgage, LLC.
