I reached out because I wanted to compare rates and work with a local company for my first…read moremortgage. I received information and a callback almost immediately. The service was super quick and top notch. Michelle and her staff were right on for every question and concern along the way. They made this process easier for me than I anticipated. The only reason I can't give five stars is because toward the end of the process everything prior to closing was very rushed. Final numbers were delivered until the day of closing. This concerned me since I had questions throughout about property tax and fees. Everything ended up working out very well but those last few moments were enough to stress me out. I would recommend them for the future. Due to Covid I never actually visited the office. And never met anyone in person. I know phone calls happened all times of the day and even when some of the staff were out of the office on vacation days.

Last week we closed on our first home thanks to Michelle and the rest of her outstanding team. The…read moreprocess was incredibly streamlined from beginning to end. We initially went to them in November 2020 to see what we needed to buy, and after working with us on our credit we were ready to buy in February and closed in less than a month. It couldn't have been easier than with DML - they took care of everything. Even when a couple issues came up on our end they made sure our dreams of homeownership weren't crushed. Next time we buy it will be with this awesome team! * I will add - I had a LOT of questions and sometimes would call multiple times a day. Their LO was more than happy to answer any question and if she didn't have an immediate answer (she's very knowledgeable) she would go to Michelle immediately so that I always left the call feeling confident. Thanks for all your hard work, Direct Mortgage Loans!

She was easy to work with and made me feel comfortable every step of the way. She was easily accessible and answered any and every question I had. She's trustworthy, dependable and a woman of integrity, all of which are important when making such a big financial decision. I will definitely work with her again and recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home.

My experience with Advanced Lending Professionals has been nothing less than spectacular. Catherine…read moreOkoroh and Lisa Keller were very professional, on point, and reliable in all of their communications between me, brokers, and attorneys. The deal went very smoothly from the start. Even after moving on to other lenders during our initial contact, Catherine was very instrumental in getting this deal done once I returned. I couldn't have asked for a better team. If your hesitating...Don't! They are very straightforward and honest about your situation. Get that deal done with Advanced Lending Professionals! LaShonda C. Homeowner

I already knew my file would be…read morecomplicated and need a little work but 5 or 6 weeks of getting the run around and no response and having to send an email to Jindra herself about integrity and communication I gave up dealing with these people. Jindra was very knowledgeable but when never returned calls when she said or gave updates. She didnt even schedule a time for me to meet with her in person like I asked for. This is my 4th time working with lenders to obtain a mortgage loan (over the last 20 years) and never have I ever had an experience like this. After 5 weeks of waiting and asking for a pre-approval which I never received I decided to go elsewhere. The process was night and day with our new lender and we had a pre-approval within days!!!

It's actually amazing that renovation loans are so hard to come by. Regardless, this office definitely treats you like a unique person and not like a commodity. Proof is that I did not eventually choose iMortgage and Loan Depot (for unique reasons and not by their fault), but I am writing this review, because they were so incredibly helpful that I know other people will benefit from a conversation with them.

Bill was completely up front about how he would bring together our application and financials to Underwriting. I have to admit our financials were complicated; 2 company businesses, several auto loans and our current house that has a mortgage but we're going to rent. Bill was super responsive initially and remained that way throughout the entire process. He is very knowledgeable in his field and was always able to quickly answer any questions we had for him. He made us feel like we were his only customers. Bill kept in line the Realtors, Attorneys, Sellers and us the Buyers. He made sure everything was moving along. He was in constant contact via phone, email and even Texts! Bill and his Team got us to close and we will be forever grateful. I would highly recommend him if you're looking for someone who is detail oriented and efficient (which, why wouldn't you be?)! Thanks Bill and your great team!!
