Jim kept me informed throughout the entire process, the information requests were organized and to a minimum, while giving me the sense of assurance that we were always on track. We were ready to close at least a week before the actual closing date and both of the Realtors were impressed as well. I would recommend WatersEdge Mortgage to my friends and family without reservation.

My realtor introduced me to Doug Leoni knowing that I would be in good hands with Simons and…read moreLeoni--the firm is amazing! My experience with Doug Leoni and Loan Processor, Jennifer Nohrer, was absolutely fantastic. One thing that sticks out to me throughout my experience was the consistent level of communication and support I received from Doug and Jennifer. They were always there to empower me with knowledge, and did so in a timely manner. As a first time home buyer there was a good deal I did not understand, but learned along the way. At one point, I began questioning my own decision making process on the home I would eventually buy. Knowing that I was questioning my decision because of cost led me to call Doug. Doug patiently took the time to walk me through my thoughts and doubts. The conversation was two parts financial advice and one part motivational speech. The discussion made all the difference and put me into a home and neighborhood I love! The conversation helped me to understand that I was going through some first time homebuyer jitters. Doug helped me feel comfortable with the fact that I was doing something big but my thinking about it all was sound. Doug also put me onto a fantastic loan opportunity and ensured I would retain as much cash as possible to put into my home rather than spend it on additional closing costs. Again, the experience and caring about the customer shone thorough as I moved towards the numbers aspect of closing details. Jennifer displayed the same kind of support during the loan processing phase. She patiently got me through documentation signing, information collecting, and preparing for the steps I would want to take after closing. She also took part of a Memorial Day morning to talk through the closing numbers of my loan so I would be well informed ahead of closing. During this conversation she also explained some steps I would want to carry out related to my loan servicer and homestead exemption application. This is a team of people that you can trust and believe in. They'll take great care of you!

It wasn't just about a transaction. If she didn't know something, she would go and find out. And she was honest about it. Her genuine concern to have us find what we're looking for really shone. We actually lost out on our first offer and were pretty bummed. Immediately the next morning the first email I saw was from Yvette with a new listing that met our needs and was about $100k less than the first one. She made time to go see the home with us at a moments notice knowing our time was limited. And our offer was accepted. Even after closing she made sure our issues were addressed. I'd highly recommend Yvette and team to anyone looking to purchase or sell.

I'm going to start off by saying I interviewed several real estate agents and Aaron was without…read morequestion was the best. He is professional, precise, knowledgeable and communication felt like I was the only client he had. Him and Rob came out and assisted with staging of our home. Their eye for design is without question on point. A lot of real Eatate agents have no idea about design and really don't understand their clients. Aaron is amazing with understanding what matters to his specific client the most. He listens and pretty sure he never stops working. He works hard for his clients to get them the best deal. He sold our house at the price higher than we listed for. Most agents wanted to list our house for 20k below what we were wanting to list, aaron and rob rolled with it and made it happen over asking. They stayed with us every step of the way and more than professional assistance, they assisted like a friend. They really cared and gave their honest opinions. Lord knows I'm not the easiest to work with but the patience his team had was outstanding. Josh who is another agent on the team was out of this world as well, everyone who Aaron surrounds himself with is top notch. I can't imagine anyone else assisting with our home selling process. Not to mention they were the agents for the buying of our new home- which we got under listing, in this market!!! Hire Aaron, you will not be disappointed.

The speed in which they replied to email, calls and texts was amazing. I can't remember the last time I received such fast responses. We were initially working with our original lender to refinance, but reached out to Steve on the advice of our Realtor. Steve made sure I understood the process, and took the time to explain that although our previous lender was offering a "flashy" rate, it really wasn't as great as it appeared. After we started the refinancing process, Amanda was just as responsive, keeping us informed at every stage of the process and answering all of our questions.
