She was incredibly responsive throughout the process, providing great guidance and helping me track all the moving parts! This allowed me to act quickly on interesting properties as they came up.

She also helped with troubleshooting challenges, including making excellent referrals to help with affordable insurance in a remote area or exploring a homestyle loan for a home that needed work.

Wanting to be conservative about my mortgage, I decided to get it directly from Chase Bank - one of…read morethe biggest financial institutions in the world. My family had an established relationship there so we expected to get reasonable treatment. Instead, the process was a complete nightmare and I ended up with a mortgage far worse than I was originally promised based on my financial situation. I reached out to Tracy because I had a bad feeling about how Chase was treating me, and she turned out to be an enormous help. Though my family insisted that I stay with Chase to the end, Tracy remained involved - advising me and filling out a parallel application in case (as she feared) Chase was setting me up for disappointment. It turned out that Chase was acting in bad faith, but they drew out the process long enough that I couldn't switch to Tracy to close. Even when that was clear, Tracy remained involved and advised me in my negotiations with the bank to make sure I ended up with the best deal possible. If I had it to do over again, I, without a doubt, would have called Tracy first. She clearly loves what she does and cares about her clients. I'll be recommending her to any friends looking to buy a house, and will go right to her if we ever decide to buy again. Highly recommended!

As a first time home buyer the process can be overwhelming. What you need is a person who has your…read morebest interest in mind and has a strong work ethic to make things work for you. That is where Tracy comes in. She found an amazing loan for me. She took into account all aspects of my personal financial situation. She showed me exactly what I needed to see as far as dollars and cents are concerned. The rate she got me was by far the best around. She is very responsive to all types of communication which is a huge relief during the home buying process. I would, without question, or hesitation utilize her for my next home buying experience.

They have a really useful tracker on their website that allows you to see your progress through the application process. They made sure we closed before our rate lock expired, despite having to change the loan a little due to our appraisal value. Closing was smooth and scheduled at our convenience. Definitely would recommend to anyone who is looking to refinance or puchase a new home!

If I could give -0 Stars to this company I would, DO NOT FALL FOR THEIR LOAN OFFICERS!!! THEY ARE…read moreA RIP OFF!! I recently purchased a home with this company and their Loan office Paulo Garcia, We ripped us off, taking Advantage that we were first time buyers, First we had agreed our Mortgage was going to be $1,700 for our house, than said he will get down payment for us, (that was money we didn't have to pay back).. I husband and I kept asking when will he have the final numbers for us, he kept saying he's waiting for the CD, which has nothing to do with the final numbers, him and the Realtor knew how much our mortgage was going to be, and they both knew that if they told us, before the settlement we weren't going to accept it, so we went to the settlement, and when we were seating at the table, we were about to sign, the person in charge at the Title company told us our mortgage was going to be $1,915.85 + another loan he got for us, that we were not AWARE OF UNTIL SETTLEMENT DAY.. he got us another loan for the down payment which we had agreed we didn't have to pay back, if there was any changes in our loan, she should had notify it to us immediately, which he never did, NOW we have 2 loans to pay and our mortgage is way too much than we can really afford to pay. Also the settlement was done on 6/8/18 and we still did not get our taxes back from him, that's our original taxes he kept, and never returned to us, I sent him an email, and my husband called him too. I don't think this is the way to help someone buy their first home. We are working on filing a complaint with the board of loan officers. Please do yourself a favor and stay back from this company.. or you will be ripped off as well.
