He was very honest with me and told me that he would not be able to provide a good rate for me on a new home purchase in Brookline. To my surprise, he actually refer me to another lender who may have a better rate for me. We ended up using the other lender who Jonathan recommended due to the awesome rate. Even though we didn't work with BlueDoor Mortgage directly but his willingness to help me speaks volume of the the honesty of this company.

Worst insurance agency ever!…read more I needed insurance same day, and at the time Massachusetts had an outdated requirement that auto insurance policies be received wet ink signed by an agent to be considered valid, so most of the better carriers (Progressive, Geico, Amica) were out of the question. I called to get a quote and was told if I wanted a policy that day I needed to head to the office in a hurry because the only agent there wanted to head out early (2pm on a weekday). This should have been my first clue! I got a policy and and paid the 20% down, as I didn't have $1000 in cash on me (no checks/no credit cards accepted here). When I called up a few weeks later to see where to send the rest of the $, the agent was completely rude and acted like I was an idiot for not knowing to send it to Encompass (his agency) instead of him. When it came time for renewal, I got a good laugh. Their offer for renewal was 175% the average of their competitors. $1400 for a policy I could get from Progressive for $800? DENIED! I switched, called to cancel and was hung up on once I told them I would not be renewing and was switching to Progressive. Ok, that's professional... If that were the end of it, they would be getting a 3-star review. Maybe 2 at the worst. Flash forward 9 months, I am receiving daily calls from CCS, their debt collection outsourcer. They never cancelled my policy and are hunting me down for $120 (first month's premium before they default-cancelled my policy). In the past 3 weeks I have had to call 6 different "divisions" of Encompass, all while getting morning & evening wake-up calls from CCS, to get this matter resolved, and each one of them keeps trying to push me back to Central Square, claiming it is the agent's responsibility to process my non-renewal. Agreed! Get him to do it then or drop him as an authorized agent! Bottom Line: Both Central Square and their agency (Encompass) are the worst insurance providers ever -- both on price and on service. The Massachusetts Commissioner of Insurance should shut these guys down!
