For mortgage loan originators Susan Liedel and Robin Tegel, this is their first time being so honored. Senior mortgage lender Steve Luebke was selected for the 13th consecutive year.

“I am so honored!” Robin said. “North Shore Bank has given me the products and tools to serve my customers and provide a top-notch mortgage experience. Coming to work is easy when you love your job, and making others happy is a great way to spend my workdays!”

“l am very honored, as you are nominated by a peer,” Susan said. “Being recognized by a colleague because they appreciated how you treated them or their client — well, it is the best compliment you can receive.”

Noting that the mortgage climate has been challenging, Steve said: “I am truly appreciative of the support I get from the entire mortgage team, management, processing, and underwriting —I couldn’t do it without their support and expertise.” The mortgage team loves referrals from branches and business partners, he added.

“Having three of our employees recognized as Five Star Mortgage Professionals is a real testament to our team and North Shore Bank’s commitment to taking care of our customers and partners,” VP consumer lending Mike Murphy said. “At the end of the day, that’s what builds strong relationships and leads to our continued success.”
