Blue Ribbon exceeded my expectations throughout the entire process. Melody Cox, was the Loan Officer involved in this Purchase and was always one step ahead. A very smooth transaction. One of the best I have been involved with!!

Melody was very helpful throughout the whole process of my Mortgage Lending. Every time I came to the office everyone was very polite. This was a great experience and I will definitely recommend people to this office.

Luckily, we were referred to Melody at Blue Ribbon Mortgage in October of 2015. We were in the middle of buying a house with another mortgage company and at last minute they denied our lending. Melody guided us into an FHA Loan. She skillfully gave us a list of items we needed to do and just as she promised,6 months from the time we meet we returned to Blue Ribbon ready to buy. Melody was amazing and guided us every step of the way. Pam, Jenna and Melody helped to make our dreams come true! They stuck by our side every step of the way and never gave up. Thanks for your help!

I wasn't the best client, I was recently divorced and didn't have the best credit. Jolene was the great!!!! She very professional throughout the whole process. I'm not sure I could have done this without her. It would have been very easy to get disappointed but she navigated me through step by step and made my situation manageable. I give her the highest rating. Thank you so much Blue Ribbon.

Christina made my home buying very successful! She was very up front with what was needed and made the process go smoothly and got it done so fast. Before I talked to Christina I was working with another mortgage company in town and everything kept changing from what I needed or had to do and even to the amount I was pre qualified for!! Christina at was very up front and told me what I qualified for and nothing changed through out the entire process. I would recommend Blue Ribbon Mortgage to anyone that is looking to buy a home or Refinance. I'd tell them to go talk to Christina before you talk to anyone. They are a 5+ star company in my opinion! Thanks a lot for everything you do Christina!!

Blue Ribbon is such a great place. They made things so easy. Christina is absolutely amazing! She made the process so easy. As first young, first home buyers we had no idea what we were getting into. Christina made things simple and explained everything to us in terms that we could understand. She broke all the details down for us. She told us exactly what we needed to do and to bring to the appointment when we met her. She is such a down to earth, helpful person, and very enthusiastic. We couldn't ask for a better person to guide us through this process. Thank you for everything! We will be recommending Blue Ribbon to everyone!

Blue Ribbon Mortgage does earn the Blue Ribbon with me. Christina and her staff were very instrumental in getting us the right loan for our home. They were in constant communication with us which made the loan proccess more bearable.The ladies at Blue Ribbon Mortgage always had my best interests first. There were times throughout the loan proccess we were not sure if the loan was going to go through. Christina and Melody worked extra hard to make sure the I's were dotted and the T's were crossed. They even had a plan B if plan A didn't work. I would definitely recommend Blue Ribbon Mortgage for anyone's Mortgage needs.

Christina was amazing with helping my wife and I with securing our mortgage and home.  Moving to Box Elder as a military spouse and starting a new job while getting a VA loan was a daunting task; however, Christina was able to secure my loan while jumping huge obstacles.  Not only did she do the mortgage, she assisted my realtor with issues on our home while my realtor was on a cruise.  She went well above and beyond assisting me and my family with our move to our new home.  Thank you so much Christina!  

- Edward Noel
Box Elder, SD | March 02, 2019

Melody Cox has been absolutely outstanding during our home buying process. Constant communication, everything is cut and dry( no surprises) and her knowledge and experience in mortgage originations/ VA loans is second to none. I wouldn’t go anywhere else to finance my home ! Even from being out of town. 5 stars !!!

- Melody/ Steve
Rapid , SD | September 02, 2019

I have been working with Christina and her team of professionals for better than 10 years,. (I move a lot). They always treat me as if I am their most important client and that's because they treat every single one of their clients as the most important. Christina's word is solid. If she says you are qualified, you are. Other banks and lenders say yes and then yank the rug out from underneath you when you least expect it. That won't happen with Christina. She, and Pam, and Melody are he nicest people on the planet and you can place your trust in them. They won't let you down.

- Dale Lewis
Sturgis, SD | September 02, 2019

Christina is awesome! We have worked with Christina and Blue Ribbon twice, once with our first time home purchase and then again with our refinance. Everything went great both times. Christina is so helpful and just amazing to work with!We wouldn't have gotten through the process so easily without her help.

- Justina D.
Rapid City, SD | May 14, 2020

I am a first time home owner, Christina has been very helpful in achieving my "American Dream" with so much ease. I felt so much support on my process of acquiring my house, especially during this COVID-19 pandemic, on its economic impact. She was always ready to consult or talk to. I think one best thing about her is it's not all about the money, or low interest rates, it is her outstanding customer relations which I appreciated the most. Very approachable and friendly. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to meet her in person to at least thank her. She worked well hand in hand with Stephanie Steele, my realtor. Again, thank you and kudos to you, Christina! You well deserved 10 ??????????!

- Kristin
RAPID CITY, SD | June 08, 2020

Christina was incredible to work with. We were being transferred from Delaware to Rapid City and quite nervous about the home buying process due to being so far away. Christina was amazing from the second we met over the phone until the closing. She kept in touch with us constantly, explained the process,  answered all our questions, and made the whole home buying process smooth and enjoyable! I would highly recommend anyone to contact Christina for all their mortgage needs. 

- Janelle Murphy

- Melvin Bender
Rapid City, SD | March 08, 2016

Jolene was very helpful and easy to work with. Buying a home is a rather stressful experience and Jolene did all that she could to keep me informed and keep my anxiety level down. Overall, I am very satisfied with my experience and would not change any part of it. I would recommend everyone to Jolene at Blue Ribbon Mortgage & Investments!

We have financed through Blue Ribbon Mortgage & Investments a number of times, and each time we are amazed at how painless they make the process. Christina Riemenschneider and Pam Perrett at Blue Ribbon Mortgage are a professional team from the start and are always available to answer any questions we had. Their expertise and concern for the customer before and after the mortgage process is above reproach. I have recommended Blue Ribbon Mortgage to several of my friends and they were all very impressed with how smooth the process was.

- Michelle and Stan S.
Rapid City, SD | January 25, 2016

Without Christina's efficient, outstanding and professional follow thru with our condo purchase we wouldn't of closed especially in a two week time period! She lead us through the whole process and was prompt with answering my many questions with absolute honesty and patience. I would highly recommend Christina Riemenschneider at Blue Ribbon Mortgage & Investments.

- Nancy H.
Spearfish, SD | December 10, 2015

At Blue Ribbon Mortgage, you are NOT just a number or a way to make a buck. Christina and her staff really care about their clients. Christina went the extra mile for us on our VA Home Purchase. We were approved and then turned down by another outfit in town and our Realtor, Josh Uhre recommended we call Christina. We were really impressed by her knowledge and "get it done" attitude. Because of Blue Ribbon Mortgage, Christina and her team, we now own our own home! Thank you Christina for not giving up and being a local lender who cares about the community we live in!
