But not just that, he also offered the best rates in the town which always helps financially. 10/10 from us. I'd highly recommend working with him and his team!

This is the fifth house I've purchased in my life and this was the first time I didn't panic during our loan underwriting. Outside of this experience, closing on time always felt like it was at risk. This time, we had 3 week close and actually closed a few days early. Brenda was extremely proactive, communicative, and responsive. We could not believe the seller went with us despite not come in with the highest offer. We were told through their agent one of the reasons they accepted our offer was because of Brenda's reputation. You can't ask for more than that

As you know, mortgage rates have been going up and up. I was able to secure a VA loan with the best interest rate I could find anywhere. If I found one better they beat it.

I picked up the phone and texted Peter today to ask a question about property taxes. He called be back and we went through everything I had.

My first home buying experience:…read more My boyfriend and I were first time home buyers and we honestly didn't know where to start. I listened to a bunch of podcasts to familiarize myself with the home buying process, and all the information pointed to having a great mortgage broker and real estate agent. Sure, it's possible to do it on your own without a mortgage broker, but I am so glad I didn't and found Rick on yelp! I looked at his amazing reviews and reached out to him the same day. He was quick to respond and after talking to Rick, I realized there were so many things that I didn't know about the loan process. He has over 40 years of experience and knowledge to impart on us and made sure we understood each process before proceeding with any type of action. Not only was he knowledgeable, he was also very patient with us and broke down jargon to educate us in a way that we understood. So then we got pre-approved and were ready to go house hunting. We were set to leave for a month's vacation in Asia and ended up winning a bid for a house on the day of our flight! Talk about terrible timing, but Rick worked with us every step of the way. He gave us reassurance and a piece of mind that everything was going to work out. As a first time home buyer, we needed his calming presence and confidence since we were very anxious about our first huge financial investment. His communication skills even with the different time zones were top notch! Rick went above and beyond to communicate to us the change in interest rates and made sure that all of us (him, me, my boyfriend, real estate agent, and escrow officer) were all on the same page. His ability to prioritize time sensitive materials and emphasize on what required immediate attention really highlights his time management skills. Rick was also very honest and realistic with us. He made sure we understood all the fees that went with each transaction so that we were able to calculate our finances accordingly and had no surprise fees at the end. Overall, I cannot express how thankful I am to have him as my mortgage broker. This whole process went smoothly and stress-free with Rick on our team and I will most certainly use him again in the future. This type of top notch customer service is the reason why we search on yelp for hours on end. He is simply the best out there and you won't regret having him in your corner!

I am very happy with the result. At closing they donated a certain amount of money to the charitable organization of my choice which was a sweet surprise!

I hope I don't have to take too many loans the size of the one Brady's team got me, but if I do, I'll be going right back to LaSalle! Make sure to follow him on IG for some great content too!

I set my alarm for 30 mins, if nothing happened by then I'd have to leave. Flash forward ten mins no movement, 20 mins in I hear music and a cheering crowd I look over and one of the employee's was at his desk watching his phone, I'm guessing some YouTube music blah blah blah... As soon as he noticed me watching him, the phone was put away and he walked over to the people that were waiting for him. Yeah busted!! 30mins goes by and I'm still in the same spot from when I arrived. Soooooo good luck when you go to this location. I don't know what I was thinking... the branch at Marina Village is way more efficient! Update! I went to the Marina Village location after work today, Arthur jumped up and helped me as soon as he saw me walk in. I was in and out in less than 5 mins with excellent customer service. Five stars for you guys!

She was able to answer my questions in terms that I would understand. From the start she knew our concerns and worked around it such as hard and soft credit checks. She was amazing to have on our side because once we started putting in offers, she was able to accomodate any timeline our realtor put to have a competitive edge. Besides her website providing notifications and reminders, she personally texted to remind us what documents were pending. She was able to get us a good interest rate and really broke down the differences in how much we put down and how that would affect the interest rates. She even broke down future recasts and how that would lower our montly payments. I'm glad to say she'll be my broker for life or until she retires. Can't wait for her call to say lets refinance when the interest rates lower.
