In addition to the testimonials of Dianne you can read on her LinkedIn and Yelp, here’s what clients and business partners are saying about her:
Thank you Dianne! We’re very happy and your team performed just as flawlessly as it did during our initial purchase. We’d recommend you to anyone. – John and Georgianna Kleman
This is the 2nd time I’ve worked with Dianne on securing a mortgage; this time for a refi. Both times during tough economic times with lots of twists and turns because of changing rules and requirements. Through it all Dianne has kept a level head; given great advice and provided great pricing and service. As a result she has definitely earned my trust. This time around I worked with her assistant, Anna Weinstein who proved to be thorough and detail oriented and helped to get my complicated file through as quickly and easily as possible. They are a winning team and someone I’d highly advocate for reliable service and the best rates on loans with incredible pricing!!!! – Leslie Fisher
We recently purchased our first home with the help of Dianne. The first mortgage broker we went to was extremely confusing and seemed a bit shady. Then we found Dianne – she really knows her stuff and is up-to-date in all the latest in home loans. She explained everything to us in very simple terms. I asked a zillion questions and she answered all of them without making me feel silly. She responded to my emails within the hour at all hours of the day (and night!). I asked for several pre-approval letters and she provided them for me instantly. After many months of looking she knew that we should have already found a home and she recommended a great Realtor. We were in our new home shortly after that. She and Anna are very efficient and I like that we could do most of our work over email. We were able to close very quickly and that made our offer more attractive. Thank you Dianne! – Brent Carithers and Laura Plotkin
Thank you for all of your help refinancing our home; without your experience, persistence, and grace under pressure we would not have succeeded. – Chris Harrison and Felicia Tornabene
Individually, you been smart, responsive and professional; collectively, you’ve made an enormous, life-changing transaction smooth, streamlined and, dare I say, easy (well, appear easy, at any rate). Thank you so much. – Mark and Wendy Shewmaker

I was trying to buy-out my family home from my siblings. The banks were not approving very many loans, even for those who were well qualified. I thought I was going to lose the house, and then I found LaSalle Financial Services. Diane Crosby and Anna Weinstein are the greatest. I felt I was in good hands from the moment I stepped into their office. Their professionalism and expertise gave me assurance that I had come to the right place. I now own the home. I highly recommend Diane Crosby to anyone seeking financing for a home. You will not be disappointed. – David Dugan
Thank you for helping me purchase my first home and for being so patient with all my questions. I couldn’t be happier with how smooth you made the process even though I was out of the country the week before signing. It was a pleasure working with you! – Amy Chou
As someone who has been through the financing process for a home purchase four times, and having also refinanced several times over the years, I consider myself to be an experienced judge on the quality of mortgage brokers. That said, I can state unequivocally that the work Dianne Crosby and her great team, consisting of Anna Weinstein and Mike Basham, did in getting me into escrow was the highest quality, most professional and efficient – and painless – loan process I have ever experienced. Not to mention the fact that it was completed in less than 21 days, which in any lending environment, let alone the one that exists today, must be viewed as nothing less than spectacular. I highly recommend Dianne Crosby to anyone requiring the services of a mortgage broker, and personally will continue to work exclusively with Dianne in the future. – Paul Gamble
Thank you very much for all you did and the special effort to get the 5.25% rate for me. I appreciate that. It was a straight forward process working with you and I would recommend you to others without hesitation. – Mark Perez
Of everyone we’ve engaged so far to help us with our first house purchase, Dianne and her assistants are the ones we’re most grateful to have on our team. Your honesty and responsiveness have given me and Georgianna vital confidence when everything else seems veiled or convoluted. – John Kleman and Georgianna Salz
Thank you for getting us such a great rate. Thank you also to your entire team, for holding our hands and answering our questions at all hours, whenever necessary. We really appreciate it, and are thrilled to be moving into our own home, with a mortgage that seems manageable (although in today’s economy, we must always keep our fingers and toes crossed!). – Shelley Smith and Tim Ruhland
Thanks for the excellent counsel and service, as usual. Always a pleasure, hopefully we’ll get many chances to refer you guys in the future. – Scott Regan and Nicole Chabot
Dianne Crosby is the best financial person we’ve ever worked with! She was very pleasant, patient, informative and efficient. What more could we ask for? Dianne was wonderful to work with on our intricate refinancing process. Her personal attention made it as simple as I could imagine, and even enjoyable. She listened carefully to our needs, asked great questions, patiently explained our options, and proceeded with great efficiency. My partner and I recommend her highly. – Rachel and Leigh Hollowgrass
Thank you for being very available and for hustling! I would definitely be happy to refer anyone to you for their loan needs. – David White and Kim Campbell
It was a pleasure working with you during my recent refinance with LaSalle Financial. I appreciate your efforts in working with me in such an efficient manner so we could close within the lock-in period and capture an incredible 30-year rate. A special thanks to your assistants who were the lifeline during the process and to you for assembling a great team. You will be at the top of my list for mortgage referrals. – Carole Lyons
Thank you for sticking with us and being supportive. This has truly been a wonderful and educational experience. We are very happy to be at the end of the road on this path and look forward to moving in. Of course, we’ll stay in touch for any future needs. And both Jeff and I will continue to send people your way, we feel our team is the best and worth sharing! – Jeff Edman and Melissa Richards
Dianne is a wonderful, gracious woman. I admire her candid and trustworthy dedication to her profession. I relied on her and she came through for me!” – Fred Bousson
Thanks so much for keying an eye on the rates and following up with me to refinance. I wouldn’t have done it on my own and the reduced payment makes a big difference! – Christina Garcia
I have worked with Dianne Crosby as a lender for years. She is knowledgeable and professional. She always puts her client’s interests first and is a great listener. Buying a house is stressful business. But my clients are comforted to know that they have a great advocate on their side! I recommend Dianne strongly to all my home buyers and sellers. – Angela Grubb , REALTOR®, The GRUBB Company
A real estate broker is the glue that keeps a transaction together. But a loan officer is the rock on which everything else stands. I love working on a home purchase or sale with Dianne Crosby. She’s a rock. I’ve worked with lots of loan officers over the years. Some are smart, careful, strategic, always looking out for the CLIENT’s interests, and focused on getting the job done–the transaction closed and the house in my clients’ hands. That’s Dianne. Others go through the motions, don’t give clients a clear answer, surprise the client with unmentioned fees and rate increases, let things fall through the cracks, don’t take responsibility, and miss deadlines and think nothing of it. That is NOT Dianne. Clients need to decide with whom they want to work. But Dianne is always on my extremely short list of trusted, tried and true loan officers who “get” the local market, commit and deliver, and have the respect of agents representing sellers (because often it’s the rock-solid reputation of the agent together with the loan officer that gets you the house). – Maureen Kennedy, REALTOR®, Pacific Union Real Estate
Dianne is a consummate professional. Not only does she have a solid grasp of the whims of our volatile financial market and its impact on her clients, but she is nimble and efficient in recommending appropriate mortgage products and getting clients safely through a transaction. She is extremely clear in her communication and in setting expectations for all parties. I’ve been on the opposite side of a transaction with her as well, with her supporting the buyers on the purchase of my sellers’ property. It was a relief for the sellers in a tricky market to know that Dianne was ushering the buyers through the process. Dianne gets it done – I recommend her frequently and wholeheartedly! – Martha Hill, REALTOR®, Pacific Union Real Estate
