I have worked with Mark for 2 different refinancings and he has always been very honest, informative and has made sure to explain everything clearly from the quote to the final signing. I had done some extensive shopping for a refi during the boom time and the advantage I found with Mark was that he is a broker who is not beholden to any particular lender or type of structure. Mark was sending out newsletters during the boom that warned people of the risks of exotic martgages and explained how they worked and how they could hurt the borrower. In 2001, before I met Mark,I was misled by an unscrupulous broker and Mark assisted me in deciphering what information I was entitled to know and what documentation was missing. This helped me recover what I was entitled to from that broker and this proved to me that he knows this business and is extremely honest. Many colleagues have referred me to their "guy", but these "guys" have never been as attentive as Mark and have never been able to compare in terms of rates or the variety of options that Mark will provide and explain clearly. I can see why he is still going strong despite the current downturn. Call him...it is worth it! read more
