About Us
Welcome to Ticket Mortgage Inc.
For generations, families who care deeply for their own — and Realtors who demand the best — have trusted Ticket Mortgage. We’ve helped first-time buyers become proud homeowners, then years later, guided their children and grandchildren through the same milestone.
With over 100 years of combined experience, we’ve built a reputation for care, trust, and lasting relationships. Our small footprint lets us stay personal and efficient — giving you access to lower rates and better options than the big banks that treat borrowers like numbers. At Ticket Mortgage, we don’t just close loans — we help build legacies, one home and one family at a time.


Experience That Goes Straight to the Source
Our team is made up only of seasoned loan officers — not trainees, not managers, not middlemen. We don’t have branch managers, area managers, or regional managers taking a slice of every deal. Those layers exist at most large lenders, and the cost of those layers always comes from one place: your rate. By stripping out unnecessary overhead — no corporate offices, no marketing department, no HR bureaucracy — we’ve built a lean, expert-driven model that passes the savings directly to our clients.
Our goal has always been simple:
Our clients rely and put their trust in us. With that, we are to show up, ready to support, and serve them to the highest standard.
Find the lowest rates offered by wholesale lenders. Stay lean and flexible. Pass these savings directly to our clients.
Never give up. Fight for every client. If not right now, how?
That’s who we are. That’s how we work. That’s us.

I’ve spent nearly 3 decades helping families buy homes the right way — with honesty, precision, and a deep respect for their financial future. My goal has always been simple: to make the mortgage process faster, smarter, and more transparent, while delivering rates that big banks can’t match. By keeping our footprint small and our experience deep, we cut out the unnecessary layers of management and marketing costs that inflate rates elsewhere. Over the years, I’ve built long term relationships with clients who return not just for their next home, but for their children’s and even their grandchildren’s. Realtors who expect excellence trust us because we deliver consistent results, clear communication, and creative solutions when others say no. Whether it’s a first-time buyer or a complex refinance, my focus is always the same — protect the client, find the best path forward, and close with integrity.
Theresa MacCarthy, Loveland, CO “Casey Knowles & his team were absolutely FABULOUS!! The process was smooth, the people were knowledgeable, and I couldn't be more pleased with the service. Whenever I had a question, Casey returned my email or phone call in a very timely manner so there was no worrying or wondering. The communication regarding loan options was clear & concise. Casey explained the pros/cons of each option I was considering so I could make the best decision for my particular situation. While I realize each mortgage experience is unique, Ticket Mortgage has numerous options available so a process that seems intimidating can be entered with confidence. Ticket Mortgage ... Good People, Great Results!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! 😊
Robert Daguirda, Castle Rock, CO “This is my second time using Casey and his team. All I can say about them is Stellar service!!! Casey and his team will exceed your expectations and do it all flawlessly. On point communication during the process and it is painless!! I will always turn to them when I need real-estate transactions and always recommend them to my friends, family and coworkers which I have already done.

KerryAnn Buckley is a proud Marine Veteran, devoted mother, and experienced Mortgage Loan Officer. With a heart for service, she is passionate about guiding families, especially military families on their journey to home ownership. KerryAnn believes that by putting service first, everything else naturally falls into place.
Terrence J, Cedar Hill, TX "KerryAnn is a Loan Officer with extreme compassion and uber professionalism. She advocated for me at every step of the process & went above and beyond to help me with anything that I needed to get done to get the loan funded. I will be referring KerryAnn to everyone who I know in the home buying process. Even at closing when Alamo title company wanted to give the seller back the seller concessions, she continued to advocate to get me all of the concessions that were promised. Kerry is a class act and apparently a leader in her field as she goes through hoops so gracefully that you may not remember that it was any hoops at all."
Elaine A, Loganville, GA "I am the absolute biggest skeptic especially when it came to buying a home. I put my trust in KerryAnn and she was able to fight for us and make what I thought was not in the cards for us. She was able to explain into simple terms easy to understand language being a first time home owner on expectations and what was needed and was prompt on answering questions. She's very protective of her clients so know that she will try her absolute best to do right by you. Full disclosure as any regular human my credit wasn't perfect but she made it happen. I would highly recommend."

Kerry-Ann is a native of the beautiful island of Jamaica. In the 90’s, her family migrated to the United States in pursuit of the American dream. Upon graduating from the University of South Florida with a Bachelor’s degree, Kerry-Ann relocated to California where she now resides with her 3 sons and 2 fur babies. Although she’s well versed in all loan programs, Kerry-Ann specializes in VA loans and enjoys tackling the world of reverse mortgages. She is excited to help military & civilian families with all of their home buying needs in CA, GA, MD, NC, TX and VA. Kerry-Ann’s innate ability to see a file from start to finish successfully, has garnered her remarkable top star reviews with her clients whom she considers family after each transaction. “I don’t view my clients as transactions, I see them as family. I make sure their needs are met and will fight to the bitter end for them to become homeowners. I don’t take “no” for an answer. If a problem arises during escrow, I make sure to exhaust all options and will find creative ways to get to the closing table.” In her spare time, Kerry-Ann loves doing fun activities with her family and friends. She also enjoys filmmaking, cooking, baking, reading and a hearty obsession of board games and coffee.
William & Rachel Baumann “With her attention to detail, knowledge, and devotion to her work, Kerry Ann Ellington made our first home-buying experience feel like it was one of the easiest decisions we ever had to make! Whenever my wife or I had a question, I was able to text or call Kerry Ann Ellington and she got back to us day or night. This was important to us because we were first time home buyers and she definitely went out of her way to find answers when others would have just done the work another day. We are a military family, and Kerry Ann Ellington has that background as well. She understood our complex issues and financial background, so that made it simple for her to guide us through the process and get us the house we had dreamed of.”
Kelsi Brakel “Kerry-Ann Ellington is just the absolute best! She really has your best interest at heart and makes everything super easy. She always makes sure you understand each step of the process and is very quick to respond to any questions you have! This is my second time working with her and it was just the smoothest of processes each time. She’s definitely my go to woman!

Testimonials
"As a real estate agent I have worked with many lenders and when it comes to the lenders, not all are created equal. My buyer had very little hope of getting pre-qualified for a mortgage and his dreams of owning seemed unobtainable. Throughout the entire process Casey was very communicative, keeping myself and my client informed every step of the way. With any home purchase there are challenges that arise and Casey's determination to find a solution not only got us to the closing table but made a dream come true for my client who is now the proud owner of his very own home."
Adam Bullock
"Ticket Mortgage went way and above and beyond to get a very unusual and difficult deal done for me. I would recommend them any day of the week if you have a deal that you need to get done. Ticket mortgage is just awesome!!!"
S Griffith, CO
"Casey was referred to me by a good friend and he exceeded my expectations for my recent refinancing. After our initial chat it was very straightforward to get an estimate, compare quotes and lock down a fantastic new percentage rate. Everything was streamlined through the online portal and all signatures could easily be submitted electronically up through the closing, but even this was easy - a notary came right to my house for the final paperwork and we got everything done quickly. Casey has a great team and thorough knowledge of the market. They will take great care of you."
