Dear Paul,
Really great to see everyone last week. Coach Belichick was amazing in sharing his private thoughts on Spygate in 2007 and Deflategate in 2014. 😄
This week’s Fireside Chat at Chatham Perk features someone who’s helped countless Cape Cod homebuyers navigate the lending maze: Tricia Besse, Residential Loan Officer with The Cooperative Bank of Cape Cod.
When: Friday, June 6 | 8:00–9:00 AM
Where: Chatham Perk
Perks: Coffee & light refreshments – my treat!
Tricia has spent the last 10 years in banking and lending - all with The Coop - and she finds it incredibly rewarding to guide people through the homebuying process with clarity and care. Her personal approach and deep local knowledge make her a standout in this field.
And I can personally vouch for that - my wife and I had a wonderful experience with her last year. She made a complicated lending process feel seamless… dare I say, easy peasy..
Why stop by?
Over coffee, Tricia will share:
• What today’s buyers need to know about getting financing in 2025 - what’s changed and how to prepare
• How to get pre-approved like a pro, and why it matters more than ever in a competitive market
• Creative lending solutions for first-time buyers, downsizers, and second-home seekers that might surprise you
A bit about Tricia:
After graduating from Boston College w a perfect GPA, Tricia moved to the Cape when she married a native Cape Codder and raised two sons in Barnstable - both now engaged to be married! Deeply involved in the community, she’s volunteered in her church, local schools, Athletic Boosters, and spent many years supporting The Cape and Islands United Way. Today, she’s a proud Rotarian with the Osterville/Mashpee Rotary Club.
She says, “Being a Residential Loan Officer is so rewarding because it allows me to expand my reach into the community and complement my volunteer work.”
Can’t make it but want to connect with Tricia?
