American Community Bank & Trust of Indiana LOVES to charge fee after fee with a fee on top of that…read more They don't give a crap if you are struggling, they will make sure they get their fees for that with another fee, and THEN be SUPER rude & unprofessional about it. Disgusted with their customer service. Oh, and if anything happens after hours? GOOD LUCK getting ahold of anyone

The customer service at this bank is impeccable. The ladies that run this bank and have been here…read morefor a long time are the nicest, most accommodating and highly professional workers I have ever encountered at any office. They represent the bank very well and greatly help to make this particular bank stand out among all the others in the area. Aside from being a conveniently located bank serving Munster and Dyer this is a full service lending institution. This bank is a beautifully done building inside and out. Plenty of parking, drive thru and convenient hours. I highly recommend this bank and I know that you will also feel the same way once you experience the high quality of service provided by American Community Bank.

I reached out because I wanted to compare rates and work with a local company for my first…read moremortgage. I received information and a callback almost immediately. The service was super quick and top notch. Michelle and her staff were right on for every question and concern along the way. They made this process easier for me than I anticipated. The only reason I can't give five stars is because toward the end of the process everything prior to closing was very rushed. Final numbers were delivered until the day of closing. This concerned me since I had questions throughout about property tax and fees. Everything ended up working out very well but those last few moments were enough to stress me out. I would recommend them for the future. Due to Covid I never actually visited the office. And never met anyone in person. I know phone calls happened all times of the day and even when some of the staff were out of the office on vacation days.

Last week we closed on our first home thanks to Michelle and the rest of her outstanding team. The…read moreprocess was incredibly streamlined from beginning to end. We initially went to them in November 2020 to see what we needed to buy, and after working with us on our credit we were ready to buy in February and closed in less than a month. It couldn't have been easier than with DML - they took care of everything. Even when a couple issues came up on our end they made sure our dreams of homeownership weren't crushed. Next time we buy it will be with this awesome team! * I will add - I had a LOT of questions and sometimes would call multiple times a day. Their LO was more than happy to answer any question and if she didn't have an immediate answer (she's very knowledgeable) she would go to Michelle immediately so that I always left the call feeling confident. Thanks for all your hard work, Direct Mortgage Loans!
