I got the lowest rate, lowest closing costs, and expended the least effort of any other experience. I was very impressed with how close the APR was to the quoted rate. Most companies pull you in with a low rate but then the APR is at least a 1/4 percent higher. The whole process was pretty painless with only the minimum amount of documentation required which I was easily able to either scan or download to my computer and then upload on their website. Again, my closing costs were super low compared to other mortgages I have had. I will definitely seek them out the next time I move.

I have been a homeowner since 1984. This is by far the worst experience I have ever had with a…read morelender. Unresponsive, failed to give me all my options, took about 110 days form application to closing. I must have called 15 times to find out my status but rarely got an answer. One of the staff I dealt with sounded totally inexperienced and confused. She then stopped returning my calls. Their online system sent me no less than 10 emails indicating I needed to login to the portal and complete tasks which I knew were already done. In each case, I would log in and the system said there was nothing they needed from me. When I finally went to closing over three months after my initial contact, the documents were wrong TWICE. The notary had to return to my home with corrected docs. I received an email asking for a rating, which I gave as ZERO. Their customer service department emailed me saying they were sorry I was dissatisfied and offering to send me a $25 gift card. I wrote back and asked if they wanted to hear about my experience. I also called twice. After almost a month, no one has contacted me. I guess they just don't care!

Aimee and her team are amazing. She helped us with the purchase of our first home and I would…read morehighly recommend her. She explained the home buying process to us in detail, was very patient as we saw dozens of homes and helped us close very quickly and efficiently once we got our offer accepted. The market is very competitive and can be disheartening for many people but having a supportive lender will make this process a lot better. Theres a lot to be said for how much she wants her clients to succeed in acquiring a home. Her team is very prompt and efficient with the loan underwriting process. I would highly recommend her and her teams services to anyone!

We were under contract in…read moreDecember but did not close until February, Mike remained communicative and informative throughout that entire timeline. This being our first purchase we had no idea what to expect, having met with Mike before we even made an offer we were educated as to what to expect in the process and what Mike and his team offered us. We felt far more confident from that initial meeting and knew we had the right team behind us. Throughout the process Mike kept us up to date regarding interest rate movements and helped us secure a very good rate. He answered our very specific questions, was incredibly timely in his responses back to us, and calmed any nerves we may have had. I highly recommend working with Mike, if you are looking to learn about the mortgage process give Mike a call, you will not be disappointed.

All around we have had a great experience working with Michael's team from the start through close. Thank you!

Ryan Gable from Starting Point Realty was our agent when we were shopping for a house. We're first…read moretime home buyers, and even though we did as much self-learning education we could, he taught us there was always more and more to learn during the home buying process. Even though we had a hard time deciding between single family homes (Detached) and town homes/Condos (Attached), Ryan was always patient with us. He was with us every step of the way with great insights on affordability, explaining how home offers work, even when we decided to switch our search locations! No matter the twists and turns we presented (I'm sorry Ryan!!), Ryan stood by our side the entire process. In fact, he was a mentor for us, who went to essentially EVERY single house we wanted to see, who gave valuable opinions and insights on every home and even the area where the home was located. He checked in with us and made sure we actually loved the house instead of pushing us towards a home to make a quick sale. Ryan is the kind of real estate agent you would want; patient, will educate you during the whole process, and will ensure you're taken care of during the whole process!

Ryan was down to earth and walked us through each step, always respectful of our situation and perspective while providing honest and insightful counsel.

We had to sell our condo due to unemployment, it was an emotionally difficult process but Ryan and his team were always supportive and compassionate. Ryan went above and beyond in terms of availability and providing hands on help. This process could have been an absolute nightmare with a lesser realtor, but we always felt safe guided by Ryan's expertise.

Let me start off with saying that I have dealt with PCF in the pass for refinancing(2006). I had a…read morepleasant experience and was the reason I went back last year(2012), but the person who I dealt with in 2006 left the business. So Mr. Robert Raveles attended to my needs, he calculated some numbers for me with the current interest rates at the time (4%-4.5%). So I signed some papers for the credit checks and gave a $500 check for the appraisel of my property. Then waited for some bank offers and waited. I haven't hear from Mr. Raveles for two week I texted him what the progress was and he assured me that he was still working on it. Another week goes by nothing I dropped by the office it was closed during the day in the middle of the week! Bad sign. So I went with someone else and Mr. Raveles refuses to refund my $500. I went to file papers to sue the Deadbeat but the business is in bad standing with the city. He offered half of it back out of his own pocket(what a nice guy) but to give him till the end of the month. Do you think I hear from him? I still have all the texted messages from this ordeal. So I would love to have a reply to this review. He's also the President and Secretary of PCF.

I cannot say enough about Integra financial group and Marianne Mandel. I would never consider using anyone else after this great experience. Thank you Marianne and team.

In just a few months she has become my go-to person for all my mortgage questions. Olga is on top of my list when I need to refer a loan officer to a buyer client. She is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and always available to answer any question that might come up.

I look forward to working with Olga on many transactions in the future.
