His kindness, competence, team, systems, and problem-solving abilities are unmatched. Not to mention, he secured the best rate for us--and we got five different quotes!

Trust me when I say you'll want someone like Jason on your side when you're getting a loan--you won't regret it!

I will definitely consult them for all my future mortgage needs and would absolutely recommend them to friends and family.

We can't recommend the folks at Rate -- Emily, Jennifer, etc -- enough for their work with our…read morehouse hunt. We previously worked with KeyBank, and they were perfectly fine with the process. However, I don't believe we would have accomplished what we needed to--understanding our budgeting, offering on one home, moving to a different home, and ultimately ending up with a better interest rate and an accelerated closing date--if we had gone that direction this time. Most importantly, though, we valued having someone to connect with who walked us through these processes, communicated genuinely, and acted as a great sounding board to iron out issues along the way. Thank you again to Emily, Jennifer & team for helping us land our dream home and making a super stressful time smoother than it could have been. We appreciate all of your hard work for us.

After exploring options with a credit union and a large mortgage company, we found that Guaranteed Rate consistently provided the best customer service. Jennifer and Katie were fantastic throughout the entire process--knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our experience smooth. A colleague recommended Guaranteed Rate to us, and now that we've officially closed on our home, we can confidently say it was the right choice. The entire process, from underwriting to document submission, was seamless and stress-free. We are incredibly grateful for their support and highly recommend Jennifer, Katie, and their team to anyone looking for a top-notch home-buying experience

They really know how important it is to make sure things are precise, accurate and quick in processes like this. I was so nerve ridden and just so anxious I wanted to throw up during the whole process honestly but this team was just on their A game the entire time so I never ran into any issues I was worrying about! Dave and his team were available by zoom, phone call, text or email anytime I needed him and as anxious as I was during this entire process - that meant everything to me! Not only did we get our first ever offer accepted on our dream home, but I got our move in date ramped up by an entire week because of this rock star team! That was amazing, great work to Dave & his team. I can't keep recommending them to our friends, coworkers, etc since it was such a great first experience. He even keeps in touch by sending us recommendations for places to visit or take our family when they come into town.

Without a doubt, I will use Evan Jansen at Summit Mortgage again and recommend him for any mortgage…read moreneeds. He provided options, excellent advice, and answers to my many questions as we worked our way through a somewhat complicated refi. I feel he had my best interests at heart. for example, when he saw what I've been paying for home insurance and commented it was high, I replied that's because I live in Florida and we have hurricanes. But then I investigated and found out, yes, I had been paying too much. Not only do I now have a lower payment due to the great rates, my homeowners insurance costs less! Evan and his team handled everything professionally and efficiently, and were always pleasant. Thank you Evan!

I hired an attorney to represent me with Academy Bank. The original issue included Academy Bank…read moreerroneously stating that they could fund a loan and stating it was "Clear To Close" and providing a "Closing Disclosure", thus causing me to forfeit my $50,000 earnest money. Ask your realtor or mortgage bank how common it is to have a bank back out after they have told you the above - NONE! Due to the failure of the funding Academy Bank also caused me to lose the ability to use the appraisal (they would not transfer it to a new mortgage lender) which cost $1,450 and hire an attorney. Another issue is that I approved in writing a charge up to $765 and was charged $1,450 for the appraisal. Due to their incompetence, I also lost the contract to buy the property. Since the original contract referenced above expired, the property went back onto the market and the seller accepted an offer for $25,000 less the earlier accepted offer. Thus I got $25,000 back due to the hard work by my real estate agent. Academy Bank and I, through my attorney, traded information concluding 8.20.21 summarizing that all the documentation supports that due to Academy Bank's incorrectly writing that the loan was "Clear To Close" and then providing "Closing Documents" (documents provided in original complaint) they have caused me to loose $29,152 that includes the earnest money, appraisal fees and legal fees. Even though they seem to agree to the math, have seen the documentation, apparently fired the loan officer I was working with, will not pay these costs they caused. They continue to misdirect what the problem is, delay a conclusion, and focus on how confused they are and not the simple facts. It seems they don't understand standard real estate procedures, deadlines, and feel there is no such thing as a real commitment. My strong is opinion is DO NOT USE THIS INCOMPETENT, MISLEADING, UNPROFESSIONAL MORTGAGE COMPANY - you will regret it!
