He will do whatever it takes to make it work for you and try to get you the best rates. After shopping around, I found the best rates and deals through Citibank, thanks to Jim! With his experience, Jim was also the most knowledgeable member of my team and kept me apprised of the mortgage and home purchasing process, even though he's not a realtor. I recommend listening to Jim, doing whatever he says, follow his 'commandments,' and he'll do the heavy lifting for you. Obtaining a mortgage is not a fun task, but at least you're in good hands. If I ever have to do this again, I'm going with Jim!
