This is what others are saying about Mary Tootikian and Stunned in America.......
Send Mary Tootikian to Washington,
Mary Tootikian has the chops needed to take on Washington. In her book, "Stunned In America" she deftly cuts through the bureaucracy and gobbledygook that Washington and Wall Street hands us about the housing loan industry. Mary is a voice we can trust. With a long-standing career in mortgages, she knows where we got off track, who has been lying to us and what we need to do about it.
In a book that reads more like a suspense novel than a financial tome, Ms. Tootikian takes us from the Depression of our grandparents day to our own personal depression about the fix we are. But she doesn't leave us there. Not only is there hope for loan reform, there is a way for us to dig out of our current maladies. The book concludes with workbook pages to help us surmise what we can start doing personally to shift our own destiny.
This is a thinking person's manual for financial aptitude. Don't sign any loan papers for anything until you read this book.

No-Nonsense, Easy to Understand
"Mary offers a no-nonsense, easy-to-understand perspective that only a veteran insider can provide. For most of us, the lingo of mortgages and financing is not always our first language, but Mary's explanations rise above the usual industry analysis you get in the media."
Brian D. Abzanka, Operations Manager, WPXI-TV (NBC)
The Listeners Can't Wait to Have Her Back!
Mary's book is aptly named. After reading it I was stunned. When I interviewed Mary on the show I didn't get through half my questions. We booked her back right away and still didn't get done. The listeners can't wait to have her back.

Not Your PC Report
As a guest Mary Tootikian has help me get the word out about what is really going on in these difficult times with the banks and mortgage crisis. Not your PC report; but deep within their little secret world that is difficult to understand at times. Mary explains it with "Here is what they don't want you to know speak"
Tootikian gets the crisis - and the solution
I read lots of articles about our financial and real estate crisis. Mary Tootikian has gathered up all the relevant information, and presented it with the fierce heart of an expert who cares, who knows the impact on human life, and who wants better for the everyday homeowner. If you want more than despair in your outlook, then read this book for possibilities and hopefullness.

An easy and useful roadmap
Stunned in America is useful to anyone or any organization that wants borrow or lend mortgage money. It's a powerful must-read for all people engaged in the mortgage industry, especially Realtors, brokers and lenders. The book and workbook are very useful and easy-to-use for people who may want to buy a home or refinance an existing mortgage. It's obvious that the author knows her stuff! And it's gratifying that she's willing to share her expertise and sage advice. I'll make sure my kids read it before they buy their first homes.

Clear and Straightforward
In my twelve year career in the financial industry and eight year career in real estate I never found explanations as clear and straightforward as I have found in Ms. Tootikian's book, Stunned in America. This is a "must read" for anyone just starting out buying or working in real estate and an important resource for those who are industry veterans.

Common Sense Explanation and Resolve:
Mary's book Sub-Crime lending is the exact steps that the government needs to take in order to turn this economy around. They are simple steps to not only help borrowers that are hurting by the very programs that government themselves put in place. The very fact they are punishing not only the borrowers they put in this situation, but tying the hands of the ones that are trying to help them is infuriating! Hopefully these solutions won't be too simple, being the processes that are being put in place as we speak are only going to make it harder for the current and future borrowers. Mary's experience and foresight should be heard and applauded.
