Frank Gooden and his team at First Merchants in Park Slope are the rarest sort of mortgage broker…read more Frank is genuinely committed to helping people find creative ways to get the lowest possible interest rate and he moves mountains to make it happen. We have refinanced our home twice in two years, and our situation was very complicated, involving a tenancy- in-common agreement, and a "cash-out" on both occasions. Frank isn't daunted by obstacles. He's patient, smart and willing to explain, and re-explain the process. He's also a really nice guy. We cannot recommend his services highly enough!

It is quite important to ensure you have those skills in someone when you are a first-time home buyer. You will hit the lottery if you use Bobby Papadopulos as your loan officer. There are not enough words to express the upmost gratitude and satisfaction with his services or his team. There are so many people in this industry for quick cash and possibly the wrong reasons. Bobby is the complete opposite. I was more than defeated in the home loan process. After a random yet quick search on Yelp, I found Bobby and decided to message him. I see why he has five stars. Although skeptical, because who is perfect? I have seen perfection in his abilities. Bobby allowed me to call him at 7:00 AM, through tears and disarray coming from my end, he stated, "I will help you". My situation was far from easy, he decided to still help us. Through diverse companies not explaining the process or requiring funds without explanation, Bobby held our hands throughout this entire process. From day one to closing day and beyond, Bobby does not leave you. He takes the time to explain to you what is occurring, why it is occurring and how to ensure a successful closing, organize finances and better yourself. He is extremely patient and understanding. He has worked in his personal time to guarantee deadlines would be met and satisfied. Without being local to me, he communicated with agencies near me to get the work done. Five stars does not compare to the amount that he and Contour Mortgage deserves. He has completely changed our lives for the better. Bobby is someone I wish was in every field not just the mortgage company because he brings professionalism, kindness, and perception. If you are looking for a home, find a home with a person who cares about your wellbeing above all. That will shape your mindset for your new journey- Bobby is the person to set you up on the right path. I will highly recommend him to anyone and everyone.

This Wells Fargo is HORRENDOUS!!!…read more I had endured almost half a year hell with this branch. In general Wells Fargo has a lot of requirements that have to be met in order to qualify for any loan. My low loan of $75,000 which is nothing to these big corporations was denied but thats not the issue. My issue is that I had a really bad "loan officer", as he preferred to be called. Always "not having" documents that I sent and resent and somehow still lost yet again. I could have been saved this half a year headache had he done his job. He was required to submit the loan to Fannie Mae for approval. He "dropped the ball" and forgot to do so. (He accused the COOP management of not being available. I'm shocked that it would require months to contact anyone, especially when the multi-personnel management is there 9 to 5pm on all working business days.) I lost my low APR and spent almost $800 for a pointless Wells Fargo questionnaire and apartment assessment. GIVE ME BACK : 1. My time wasted for fulfilling Wells Fargo many requirements. 2. Lost APR. (which is in the thousands i could've not lost) 3. Money wasted. PS. Jimmy Mamakas of Sterling National not only got me my loan, but it only took two months and its Fannie Mae approved.

We spoke to several banks, but it was always the same thing with them, they were trying to sell us something we were not looking for. Then one evening we found Sun Mortgage Company and read all the reviews. The next morning, we called Sun Mortgage Company and spoke to Don Rizzo. We told Don what we were looking for and he explained how the process works. After filling out the online application, we were all set to move forward. I was expecting a similar process to what the banks would have put us through but WOW, I was wrong! Before reaching out to Sun Mortgage Company we had attempted to go through our previous lender and other financial institutions, but they made it impossible. We were always talking to a different representitive each time and had to start over due to lack of information they had on their end, which meant starting the process over. This was fustrating!! Don Rizzo made this process quick, easy and painless. In just a short amount of time after supplying him with some of the documents he had requested, he found us the perfect loan and excellent rate to refinance our home. Once we had agreed on the loan and rate, Don was even able to get us in touch with a local law firm to handle the closing. This was one of the best loan experiences we have been through. We will be using Don Rizzo from Sun Mortgage Company again in the future. Thank you again Don.

There were some repairs that needed to be made per the underwriters but once those were handled everything was smooth sailing. Always in communication, and if we weren't able to answer a call, there was an email from Don almost immediately afterwards. Would definitely recommend anyone on the area work with Don if you're looking for financing.

We worked with Bryan for a mortgage. It literally took 3 months of us trying to get ahold of him,…read moreand the mortgage got nowhere. He did not give us any timely information- we had to constantly try to reach him via email, cell, and text. Even then, he didn't pick up or respond. The most we'd get from him was an email, after the millions of calls and texts that we sent. It's horrendous how discourteous and unprofessional he was!! He also quoted us at higher rate than what was posted on the Bank's website - I don't know what that was about, as he never returned our calls, but it seemed like shady business. He also obviously didn't know what he was doing, as he didn't know upfront which documents we needed to submit to the underwriter! Each week we would get a new requirement from him regarding some new document that we'd need to submit. It was a horrible, absolutely terrible, experience working with him. I've closed on 2 properties before going to him, and I've worked with multiple mortgage specialists in the past. Bryan was, by far, the worst mortgage specialists ever, in skill, knowledge, efficiency, professionalism, communications, and more!
