I was referred to Andrew Monticone out of the Needham branch, through the whole process. Not only did he work step by step and helped me to find the best way for me and my family to get this done quickly and without any delays. He was very good at keeping me informed of what is going on and what to expect next. Communication was terrific and understandable all through this. Even though I dealt with Leader bank in Needham I visited the Seaport branch to open my accounts. In both cases I well pleased with the service and the people that work for this Bank. I wanted to use a small bank just because I knew I wouldn't be just a number in line. And I strongly believe that even if Leader Bank grows to a large bank the service and kindness I received will not change. I would love to thank Andrew and leader bank community for a great job and the compassion on which the showed me and my family. God bless you all. Nelson Vargas.

As I will be a first-time…read morehome buyer, I had a ton of questions about the process and was eager to sit down with someone knowledgable in the field of purchasing a home. I was given Jeff Rolke's name through a friend who had used him in the past with great success. Prior to our meeting, I didn't realize that a mortgage broker is different than a bank that offers loans independently. Jeff and Goldcoast Mortgage work with six different banks in order to acquire the best rate. I found Jeff to be very comfortable to speak with, as he is friendly and down to earth. At the same time, he was very professional and had a lot to explain about the process (the percentage that needs to be put down initially, etc.) He explained how mortgages work and elaborated on the different types of mortgages (and why some people run into trouble with their mortgages). He also explained how he works in collaboration with a skilled real estate attorney to make sure my that my best interest is made a priority throughout the process. After our meeting, I called Goldcoast with a few more questions about the process and I was surprised that they knew me by name, and as they are a small group, were already familiar with my particular situation. I know my dream home is one day going to be a reality and look forward to Goldcoast Mortgage being a part of that process!
