I called repeatedly for a week (in a pretty urgent situation) and no one picked up the phone. Not only did they not pick up the phone, they did not return my messages or emails. Eventually, I called Living Social and they were even unable to get into contact with them. Luckily, I was refunded the money. After I was refunded, I received an email from Get It Done Now saying they were on vacation for a month. WTF? Clearly this business is a scam.

My wife and I hired Neil to redo our kitchen. From start to finish he was a pleasure to work with…read more His time frame and estimates were spot on. He kept the work site about as clean as you can and even helped out when there was an unforeseen flood in the basement caused by a bad gasket on the boiler. By the way, NOT caused by him or his workers. The final results of the kitchen renovation were better than what my wife and I could have expected. He was very prompt in addressing final touch ups no matter how minute it was to make everything look flawless. We give Neil and his company our highest recommendation and look forward to working with him again when our next project comes up.

On January 6, 2026, I spoke with loan officer John Murphy of Cliffco Mortgage Bankers regarding my…read moreinterest in obtaining a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC). John explained that Cliffco does not offer HELOCs and instead recommended a cash-out refinance. After giving it considerable thought and doing my own research, I decided to move forward with the cash-out refinance based on his recommendation. On February 4, 2026, I provided all of the requested documentation, as well as every follow-up document requested afterward, in a timely manner. Based on my income, credit, and the fact that I owned my residence outright with no existing mortgage, I was under the impression that I qualified for the refinance. I was also advised, and independently confirmed through my own research, that a cash-out refinance would typically take approximately 30-45 days to complete. Today is August 8, 2026--six months after submitting my documentation--and I still do not have a resolution. At this point, I have completely lost confidence in the process and am extremely disappointed with my experience. I feel that I have spent an unreasonable amount of time, energy, and money trying to get this loan processed. There was very little proactive communication or follow-up from the bank. Most, if not all, of the follow-up came from me. When additional information was requested, I provided it, only to encounter what often felt like unnecessary or excessive requests that further delayed the process. Waiting six months for something I was told could take 30-45 days has been extremely frustrating. I believe I have been more than patient throughout this process. I am also a licensed real estate agent and have referred clients to Cliffco Mortgage Bankers in the past who were seeking financing. I have received mixed feedback from some of those clients, but I never expected to have such a negative experience myself--especially considering that I felt I had established a good rapport with the loan officer. Unfortunately, this experience has completely changed my opinion of Cliffco Mortgage Banker. Based on what I have personally experienced, I will not use or recommend Cliffco Mortgage Bankers in the future. To anyone considering using this company, I strongly encourage you to do your research, ask detailed questions about the expected timeline and communication process, and consider your alternatives before moving forward. My experience has been extremely disappointing, and I would not recommend Cliffco Mortgage Bankers

Beware if you're shopping around for rates - Cliffco's loan officers will run a hard credit check…read moreon a pre-approval even if you decide not to use them. No other loan company I worked with did this, and so I had a lower credit score than I should have had when I locked in my rates with another company. This may have caused some monetary damages to me and I may be paying a higher rate on my mortgage because of them.

Despite many homes for sale and in foreclosure in the immediate area, Alex was not deterred. Approximately 4 months after our initial contact with Alex, he was able to assess the house and property, present it online with photographs, market it and finally sell it. We just had the closing, less than a week ago, and Alex was present at the closing to make sure all the "T's" were crossed and the "i's" dotted. He knows every nuance of the market of the South Shore of Long Island, and every detail of the buying and selling process. Buying and selling Real Estate is a complicated process for us "civilians", but Alex makes it look easy. Together with his Team, he made selling our house, from long distance (I live in Connecticut) an easy and stressless process. I would and will recommend Alex (and his Team) to anyone that is interested in buying and/or selling Real Estate.

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.
