About
An advisor — not a salesperson.
Meredith Herr is a Reno + Lake Tahoe-based mortgage advisor and coach at Lake Tahoe Mortgage — the brokerage her father founded. She works with a deliberately small roster of buyers, owners, and investors who want a real strategist in their corner — for this loan and the next thirty years.
Meet Meredith
"I want to be your mortgage advisor for life — not just for this transaction."
Meredith built her practice on a simple idea: a mortgage is never just a loan. It's the financial spine of your household for the next thirty years, and it deserves to be coached, not sold.
Before mortgages, Meredith spent a decade in corporate accounting and compliance — first at pre-IPO Silicon Valley companies, then through the chaos of newly public ones. In 2020 she came home to Lake Tahoe to join her father, Steve Bennett, at the brokerage he founded in 2016 — a true father-daughter team and the practice she'd always wished existed: deeply personal, strategically sharp, and stubbornly honest. She'll tell you when to wait, when to refi, and when to walk away.
Today she advises first-time buyers, multi-generational families, and a tight roster of investors across the Reno–Tahoe corridor. The relationship outlasts every transaction.
The Practice
One advisor. Direct line. Strategic by default.
You'll never be handed off to a junior processor or a call center. Every file is pre-underwritten by Meredith personally, every scenario is stress-tested, and every offer goes out with the certainty needed to win.
