I heard she had a rough close on a transaction before I contacted her. I asked her upfront if that was a fluke or a usual occurrence. She insisted it was a one time fluke. Well... here we are a few months later. She literally ghosted me... and let me tell you I'm not a hard client. I just wanted to get approved for a loan and wanted to know what I was approved to. Don't use Meghanne, she'll literally just drop you if you aren't convenient for her. I switched to David at Bank First Idaho, much better. Got me approved in no time and it's been a much smoother transaction. Couldn't be happier.

He explained the whole process to me, answered all my questions, and would even call to see how my house hunting was going. We only had a certain amount of time to find a house and get our loan processed due to our lease at our rental having to be renewed and the team at Evergreen made our dream of owning a home happen in a very crunched amount of time. Thank you David and Megan!!!

We recently did a Re-fi with another Co. and each time they called it felt like another call to give us reasons why this might not work. John and his people were always positive and their approach was always "we just need this to button things up". We heard from someone on a regular basis and the call came from whoever was the right person to make the call. John called occasionally just to make sure we were comfortable with how things were going. The overall experience was Great and I would use them again any time.

We had an amazing experience with the Benchmark team for our home refinance!…read more From start to finish, the whole process took less than 21 days! (Two other banks quoted us 60 days MINIMUM to process our refinance.) Benchmark quoted us a 30 day or less timeframe and they kept that promise. We were given comparison documents less than 24 hours after providing our personal information and what we were hoping to accomplish with the refinance. The staff was vary transparent and kept us updated along the way. Their customer portal was very easy to use and navigate through when uploading and signing documents, as well as seeing exactly when documents were reviewed and accepted. We called the office several times with questions and they were always cheerful and helpful. We were never put on hold, and they always returned calls quickly. Through the whole process, it felt like we were their only clients because of how much attention they dedicated to us. I was honesty amazed by the level of customer service. Between their "family" like feel, the quality of ethics, and detail of service, Benchmark has been the best company we have ever worked with in the industry. I highly recommend them and will absolutely be using them again next time we purchase or refinance a home.

Garrit has everything you would want in a loan officer. *Proactive - He really got to know our situation, researched and told us what was truly best for us do. Basically he did more than get us what we asked for he exceeded our expectations and got us a rate and closing costs that were far better than we expected. *Knowledgeable and Experienced - I am one of those internet research type of guys and I have to tell you I have been researching a re-fi for our house for about 2 years now. I talk circles around most big bank agents that have approached me in the past. Garrit however was another level and was very eager to not just tell me how it is but to take the time to make me truly understand how everything works and the different options available. *Upfront and honest - Not much to elaborate here except that Garrit tells it like it is, but always from a positive angle and never from a viewpoint of defeat. An example would be something like a credit issue.... Garrit doesn't run, he gives you the facts and puts you on the track to repair and achieving a goal of financing (in our case re-fi). *Fun - Just a good guy to be around... one of the few people I have met who can maintain the highest levels of professionalism balanced with a positive, fun and energetic attitude. My wife and I could go on and on here... but we will just leave you with the following. If you are buying or re-financing in California take the time to contact Garrit McGuire at Academy Mortgage... you wont regret the decision. Paul and Heather Everett Livermore, Ca.
