We have over 35 years of combined experience helping clients through the maze of getting a mortgage. We know the mortgage process can seem overwhelming. That’s why the Sawyer/Cook Mortgage Team is PASSIONATE about making it as painless as POSSIBLE and getting you into your new home with minimal stress.
Using an experienced, local lender can make all the difference when you are purchasing a home. We provide every client with the knowledge needed to make the best lending decision for buying their HOME TODAY, while also being a resource for their future mortgage needs.
Our job is to help you discover how much of a home you can afford and make sure you get the best loan for your situation. Our individual experiences and accomplishments are what fuel our enjoyment of helping you through the process. From prequalification to closing, we will be there to help you!

Bliss Sawyer
Master of the Universe Loan Officer

I am PASSIONATE about helping others with their homeownership goals and absolutely LOVE my job. It isn’t always easy and I have found myself often railing against difficult rules and regulations, but there isn’t anything else I would rather be doing with my life, and look forward to helping you with your next loan.
I am a mother of four amazing, mostly adult-acting people; with the absolute best part of my family being the grandkids, they have my heart and anything else they want. I’ve been married for 37 years to my biggest cheerleader and biking buddy “Professor Honeybuns”. We spend our free time creating memories and traveling, mostly on our bikes. I set a goal a few years ago to bike 50 miles in all 50 states (so far, we’ve hit 39); it’s how I laugh at the ever-encroaching rocking chair of my future.
Tyson Cook
Warrior Loan Partner

As Bliss’ Loan Partner, I reinforce our mission to make your home-buying experience fantastic. I am technically a millennial, but don’t hold that against me! That’s what makes me so determined to help younger generations find affordable housing, kick-starting their future and keeping them out of mom’s basement.
As much as I love helping our clients, my wife and four children occupy the top spot in my life. I have a master’s degree in economics, dabble in social media marketing/videography, enjoy learning (currently working towards becoming a licensed drone pilot), spending time outdoors, and following local sports teams (mostly the Utah Jazz & BYU Cougars).
Joanie Durant
Production Manager Extraordinaire

As Team Bliss’ Production Manager, I have the privilege of assisting our clients with the loan process from application to closing; by gathering documents, updating clients as well as being an awesome support system. Simplifying the process and providing outstanding customer care and support is one of the many highlights of my role.
On top of having the coolest career, I am also lucky enough to be married to my best friend! We are proud parents of two amazing individuals. When I’m not busy being awesome, you can find me reading, crafting, exploring new things, watching TV and playing video games.

” Tyson was amazing to work with! He helped answer any and all question we could think of. He was very transept with everything and kept us informed along the way. We were able to use some realtor commission and also buyers credit to buy down our interest rate, which was very confusing to us- but Tyson explained it very simply and helped us us understand the laws around how we could use that credit! We are more than happy with how things worked out, especially with how high interest rates are right now. Highly recommend! “
