Client Reviews
Local knowledge that wins offers
“Andy was so helpful to me through my home buying experience. He was patient in gathering all of my financial details and in explaining all of the necessary documents needed to show my assets and income. He explained the differences in types of loans, interest rate, and buying down the rate process. I told him where I would be comfortable with my monthly mortgage payment and he came in right on the number. In addition, he was able to secure my loan with a fantastic lender and the closing costs came in well below the original estimate. I can't say enough about Andy's knowledge of the industry and his fantastic communication and response time to my constant questions. It was truly comforting knowing that I was in great hands throughout this entire process. And now I have my dream home! Thank you Andy!!!”

“We are first time home buyers and were not familiar with the financing process at all. Andy took the time and explained everything up front. He then walked us through every step of the way from beginning to end. We never had to worry about about anything because Andy was always one step ahead letting us know what was going to happen next and what we needed to have ready. He was answering our questions before we even asked. We would recommend Andy to everyone.”

Client Reviews
Programs matched to real situations
“AMAZING experience from start to finish! Andy is a class act and I will never do business with any other mortgage company after working with him. It's nice to know there are still solid people in this field who you can trust. Andy went above and beyond and anticipated every possible issue before there actually was one. Getting a house can be stressful enough so the fact that the mortgage went seamlessly was a blessing. I wish I could have given more than five stars because he deserved a million!”
“Andy was great to work with. Not only was he able to get things completed in a timely manner, he explained the process along the way. Andy has deep, creative knowledge and is patient/willing to teach along the way. It's been a great experience and I plan to continue to use Andy for future investments!”
“Andy was great and easy to work with. He went the extra mile and provided excellent service. I highly recommend Andy.”
