Tim Bazell | SouthState Mortgage 1819 Main Street, Sarasota, FL 34236

"Tim Bazell is the spirit of SouthState Bank Mortgage and his enthusiasm flows down to Managers, Loan officers, processors and Underwriters. I know this because I have worked for Tim for about 4 years now as an L/O and in my 40 years in the mortgage industry he is hands down the best teacher and motivator I have worked for. SouthState is a great company to work for and Tim has helped create a great work environment where anyone and everyone can grow and succeed. Bill Palda"

"I love working as a mortgage banker with SouthState Bank. This bank understands what it takes to close mortgage loans. I love that my processor does her job without having to be micromanaged which allows me to be out on the streets soliciting realtors and builders for more business. From boarding to closing- all team members step up to take care of the customers needs without pushing back to me for assistance. It's all about the customer experience and getting the job done right ! Love it."

"Tim Bazell is just one reason I love Southstate Bank. He always has a positive attitude and outlook and is willing to go the extra mile for his team and our customers.
