I recently had the pleasure of working with Angela Swank, and I must say that my experience was nothing short of exceptional. She demonstrated a level of professionalism, expertise, and dedication that truly sets her apart. One of the standout moments of my interaction with Angela occurred just a few days before my mortgage closing. Despite having already secured what I thought was a competitive rate, she went above and beyond to explore further options for me. She negotiated a better rate for me, even at such a crucial stage in the process. This last-minute effort not only saved me money but also showcased her commitment to ensuring the best outcome for her clients. She's simply outstanding. read more

My wife and I used Angela for our move to Des Moines and couldn't be more pleased. We've purchased homes in the past and this was far above what we had experienced those times. With Angela working for us we always knew what needed to be done in a timely fashion and never felt that we had to rush to complete something. She always kept us informed about the process. She worked with us in scheduling closing and making the whole closing process painless. Finally, she has been there after closing to answer questions about our loan and other financial concerns. Would highly recommend. read more
