While meeting with my financial planner recently, we identified a shortfall in income stream. As I had sufficient equity in my home, it was decided that I should seek a reverse mortgage. I did a great deal of research, online and with financial sector contacts and settled upon Slade Mortgage. It is likely one of the best decisions I have ever made. From the initial call to closing, Mike Burton, Megan Brooks and the entire staff made the experience a pleasure. The first contact offered me the opportunity to state my goals and to listen to the offerings available. When I went to meet with the team at Slade Mortgage (you can meet at their office, your home, wherever is most convenient for you), I was greeted by an incredible staff of underwriters and mortgage professionals, who presented me with a wide array of options for my needs. We settled upon a course of action and I was delighted to spend a couple of weeks of drama-free time awaiting the closing. One thing I must emphasize; be prepared with all documentation requested. Your due diligence will streamline the process and lessen any stress. Actually, stress never entered the experience. I felt understood, heard and supported throughout the entire time I worked with Slade Mortgage. I was never pressured to enter into a transaction I did not need/want, and the voluminous paperwork and regulations were explained to me in detail. I felt no hesitation in obtaining a reverse mortgage from Slade Mortgage - there was nothing untoward, no red flags, just competence and dedication to getting everything right the first time.
I cannot recommend Slade Mortgage enough for reverse mortgage needs. I trusted them with my future and have not hesitated to laud their service, both financially and customer-oriented. A group of hard working people, they seek to not just satisfy their clients, but to delight them. From immediate phone call returns to making house calls for documents, there are no limits to what the Slade family will do to accomplish your goals. It was an unexpectedly stellar experience resulting from a less than stellar situation. read more
