Garrit went above and beyond our expectations of a lending officer. My husband just got out of the…read moremilitary so long story short, our financing fell through with our first lender while we were already a week in escrow, that's when our realtor referred us to Garrit. Garrit made the loan process so easy for us and still kept our timeline and close date from the beginning. I would recommend he and his team to anyone I know and definitely plan on using them in the future!

My fiancé and I were trying to go through this company and it was so unprofessional that we decided…read moreto take our business and money elsewhere. Drew wasn't the most polite person and his assistant was even more rude. She argued with my fiancé about an email that she was supposed to send but we never received. The fact that she argued with my fiancé was enough to make us go somewhere else. I would not recommend this place whatsoever!

Occasionally, home loan purchase applicants experience difficulty obtaining a loan because of…read morecredit challenges, being self-employed, low appraisals or income to debt ratios. What happens when none of these apply? Waterstone Mortgage, and the Gwen Swain team in particular can make your life hell for about 30 days because you were exceptionally well-qualified but unfortunate enough to apply for a loan with them. If you want to stop reading now, here is the takeaway: there are conservatively 100 better qualified brokers in Idaho and nationally who should be considering your loan application. Gwen apparently cultivates a major online presence, focusing on first time and refinancing borrowers. I was referred to her by such a borrower (a relative), and thought I was in competent hands. Literally 24 hours before the close of escrow, we were still negotiating the wording of documents we had to sign, and escalating problems up the Waterstone food chain because Gwen and her team could not or would not respond to resolve issues. We were days from closing when Gwen said their underwriter would need "more time". Why? No one could say exactly. Did they need more documents? No, just "more time". We have had no fewer than 18 loans/refi's in our home buying and owning history and NEVER have we encountered a more incompetent, poorly trained and less caring group of mortgage workers. Our realtor, the escrow and the title team were uniformly aghast at Gwen's lack of competence and caring. At one point, she told me she "wasn't making anything" on my loan. That might have been the most honest statement I heard in the entire 3 month experience. Save your stomach lining. Apply anywhere but here. Every word of this review is true and can be proven by documents and emails.
