They deftly handled an aggressive 30 day closing schedule, skilfully moderated negotiations with the stodgy seller (it's tough dealing with bank-owned property!), and found a great rate at a local bank that (unlike most banks) didn't immediately shuffle service of the loan to the highest bidder. They even referred me to an extremely trustworthy realtor who was instrumental to finding my new home. I couldn't imagine how painful the process would have been without RMC helping every step of the way, and I will absolutely use them again!

She worked very fast and efficiently to get me the information I needed and my application processed. Finding an informed and helpful lender is key to successful home buying. She works closely with you to help you get the right loan. I'm very pleased.

He is also SUPER communicative. I could send him a listing I was interested in and he would email me back with the numbers for a potential mortgage/my monthly payment. When it came time to put in an offer he was available around the clock via phone and email. I really appreciate his dedication! Thank you so much Nick. My puppy and I love our new home.

F&M Mortgage Group has got to be the premiere mortgage brokerage around. Not only are they…read moreknowledgeable, and friendly, but they had the best rates of all the brokerages I called on. In fact, they beat a lot of the on-line sites, like lending tree. Who by the way, has still yet to finish spamming me with follow-up crap; Did I mention it's been almost a year since I looked? In short, they treat you like family. Case in point, Michael Meyer, who is one of the managing partners CAME TO MY HOUSE to drop off paperwork that needed to be signed. After closing, the first call on my cell is from Michael calling to make sure it went off without a hitch. They are truly wonderful to work with. An A+ local business.

I'm a little late with this review, but better than never I suppose. Late last year I had the…read morepleasure of working with Michael Meyer and his team at F&M on the purchase of our new home in Maryland. Not only did F&M offer a phenomenal rate, but they went above and beyond to make the entire process a breeze. Our situation was tricky because my pregnant wife and I were moving from another state for a new job in DC. We needed to close on our house as soon as possible after our arrival for obvious reasons. But lo and behold, I was surprised to discover that it is now virtually impossible for non-cash buyers to close on a house before starting a new job. I understand this is due to rigid enforcement of federal guidelines prohibiting lending to anyone who is "unemployed".... even if the reason for "unemployment" is moving for a new job. Many lenders I spoke with insisted on 30 or 60 days worth of pay stubs from my new job before closing. Yeah, right... we'll just go ahead and move all of our belongings 700 miles, unload everything into an apartment, then pack it back up 2 months later and pay to have it moved again, all while I'm starting a new job and my wife is pregnant. Absolutely ridiculous! Several lenders initially promised they could close within a week or two after starting my new job, only to yank the rug out from underneath me and later insist on 30 or 60 days of pay stubs. Thank God I found F&M. They were the only lender able to deliver. F&M had the expertise, knowledge, and ability to navigate the arcane regulations and offer a customized solution for our unique situation. Michael Meyer suggested a sensible financing alternative no other lender had suggested which allowed us to close on our house in a reasonable time frame after starting my new job. Unfortunately, I wasted almost two weeks of my life shopping around for a competent lender before I found F&M. I spoke with at least a dozen other banks and brokers. F&M was by far the most knowledgeable and professional. They were light years ahead of everyone else I dealt with. I only wish I had found them sooner! Thanks again for making our move painless and possible, guys. We will definitely call on you when the time comes for our next move.

They helped me refinance my property and alerted me to several bank related issues which really, weren't even their problem. It all went great, property refinanced. Alasgar "Ali" also mentioned if we ever wanted to sell our condo, to speak to him. So we did the following year. We were concerned about not having enough equity to proceed with the sale. Ali worked out the numbers, took a good look at the property and helped us make some changes to ensure that we got top dollar for it. We had an offer the first weekend. Digital Closings helped us out with closing. The entire process was flawless. The buyer was using their own title company. Digital Closings made sure we were both on top of everything so there would be no surprises at the end. I was so please, I referred Digital Closings and Ali as an agent to a neighbor. Long story short, the business is a legend in my condo building. In 3 months, they had 4 units sold, all units that needed some attention to make sure the owners walked out with money in their pocket. I encourage you to bring your story and issues to Ali. He will give you a great solution as long as your expectations are realistic. I am extremely please with Digital Closings as I gave my personal word to my close neighbors and they did not let me down. Friendships could of been lost over a bad recommendation. They are now stronger. I'm hoping they soon take some time and also put up reviews to back this one up but more importantly, to thank Ali for doing what many agents and title firms will not do for you since their priority is for them to get paid first, your needs second.

When my home offer was…read moreaccepted, my relator got in touch with Woodland Estate & Title and Curtis immediately reached out to me to discuss the settlement process. He made sure I was comfortable with the process from start to finish and that any questions I had were immediately answered. When an issue came up from the seller's end regarding their title, Curtis heavily engaged himself in resolving the title issue so that I could close on the home in a timely manner. The fact that the settlement company could potentially not have been able to insure my title due to this being the seller's issue, there was no incentive for Curtis to resolve the issue from his end; however, he still saw this through. This spoke volumes about the integrity of Woodland Estate & Title and Curtis' commitment to his clients in purchasing their home. Curtis continued to help my lender with the title insurance complication and spent a lot of time and effort resolving the issue. Despite many challenges faced with revising the title and ensuring that it was corrected prior to closing, Curtis was on top of these actions and followed-up with all parties involved quickly and thoroughly. Without Curtis' help, and the help of his team, Cecilia Valois, Sun Hee Rumbavage, and Matthew Bolduc, I know I would not have been able to close on my home. Additionally, when I was out of town and needed to close on my home while I was away, the team was able to mail me my closing documents so I could have it signed and sent back in time to close without any delay. They were prepared and quick to process all the documents and paperwork needed and without any complications. I wanted to take the time to show my appreciation and to highlight Woodland Estate & Title's excellent customer service and dedication to their clients. I have already recommended Woodland Estate & Title to other potential homebuyers since I have full confidence in the company and in each employee's ability to provide an excellent homebuying experience for them. I normally do not recommend specific people or companies since I set high standards in the services I receive, but Woodland Estate & Title by far surpassed my expectations. It is because of employees that work there and the company's commitment to its clients that make Woodland Estate & Title's reputation distinguishable. I cannot thank Curtis and his team enough for everything they did and I will work with Woodland Estate & Title in the future if I ever decide to purchase another home.
