Whenever I had questions, no matter how small, Jim was happy to answer them and make sure I was in the know about every step of the process.

Jim is THE BEST. He helped us rain or shine, whether we were just browsing and then also when we…read moreneeded to hurry up and make things happen in ~30 days.

He also was very responsive and would check in from time to time to ensure we were feeling good. Genuine care! He made it SO EASY. Everyone was like, 'omg you're buying a house that must be so stressful.' UH NO! NO NOT REALLY BC WE HAVE JIM!!!! 10/10 will be working with Jim again and encourage you to do the same!

We initially contacted her just to inquire how the process might look and she was very patient and explanatory as she walked us through what the process would look like in the future. It was all very informative and low pressure which I very much appreciated. Once we decided to move forward with purchasing a condo I cannot say enough how much I appreciate everything she did for us, I would work with her again in a heartbeat and I recommend everyone go work with A and N!

Mike assisted in the purchase of our first home over the last few months. 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!

I worked with Brett for our mortgage. When he first told me what rate he could get for me, I was…read moreskeptical and even apprehensive because it was so much better than everything else I was being offered by other lenders. I did a refi about three years ago with Guaranteed Rate and when I told them the rate I was able to get through Molitor they basically said, that's impossible nobody is getting that rate right now. Well I'm glad I didn't listen to them. Brett delivered the rate he promised, no fine print, the process was simple and Molitor was there to answer any question I had. If you work with Brett and his rate seems too good to be true, it isn't and he'll deliver. Would recommend to any friend or family member.

Particularly Soraya Rendon. She ushered our deal from start to finish with nothing but professionalism and compassion. She treated us like it was her own deal. She made herself available 24/7. Even when faced with difficult obstacles. Particularly one of the most unruly and unprofessional real estate brokers in the business. But through it all every commitment she ever made was kept, and followed through in a timely and efficient manner. I'll be sending her every referral I can muster up. Purchasing a home can be stressful and if you want someone to help alleviate that stress then I highly recommend Soraya Rendon at Neighborhood Loans.

Cecil Sabu has got to be the most knowledgeable broker in the business in Chicago. Every neighborhood we visited came with a tour of local restaurants, bars, and businesses. Not only does his knowledge cover the neighborhoods of Chicago, but in handling any question or concern I had in regards to my first home purchase. Negotiating on my behalf, Cecil was able to get almost half of my closing costs back as credits and secured me one of the lowest interest rates I have ever heard of. We were able to find an amazing condo, well within my budget in less than 25 days! If I knew it would be this easy, I would have looked to buy a place years ago! If you want the most hassle free and enjoyable home buying process, look no further than Cecil Sabu. His dedication to his clients is incomparable, and his knowledge of Chicago is unmatched.

From taking the time to understand what we were looking for, to then giving us time to look through what was available, always being just a message away in case we had any questions, to then even providing recommendations based on what we had discussed with him (that we ended up loving more than we had seen), Cecil goes above and beyond for his clients! Cecil has deep expertise that enabled him to help us understand which homes we should seriously consider vs what may require more effort on our part (based on our needs). Cecil was our one-stop-shop from finding a home, getting insurance, getting our loan, and more - He can really do it all! Cecil spent countless hours with us helping us find our dream home and not settling for less. If we were to do it all over again, we would definitely go to Cecil again.

I am a small business owner and, I think because of that, very demanding. I expect excellent customer service because I know that is what differentiates my business from the larger ones. Michelle's team delivers expert advice and stellar customer service. I told Michelle and her team that I wanted to close asap on my new property and we closed within 30 days-much quicker than I expected. Of course, I was responsible for delivering on my end but when I did, someone from the team was right there to make sure everything moved. To top it off, they are super friendly, and even went beyond when I could not find an insurance company to cover the flat roof home I was buying in DC. I whole-heartedly recommend this team of experts.
