My full time job isn't to refinance my home and they understand that. Whether it was email, phone or in-person, Nancy and her team understand quality service. I'll be back and I will gladly refer everyone here. Thank you!

I would highly recommend working with her again and plan to refer her to friends and family in the future. Thank you again for ALL you did!!

After seeing the bountiful positive reviews on multiple sites for Home 1st Lending, we decided to go with this mortgage broker and boy am I glad I did! Caleb and the team have done a marvelous job. They are extremely knowledgeable and super responsive. They were always on top of anything and was there for any questions that we had. We were able to not only get a competitive APR but also a very low PMI. In the beginning I was super worried about the PMI since we didn't have the affordablility for 20% down but Caleb was able to find the perfect loan that fit our needs. I stress out very easily but Home1st Lending, LLC made this process easy and stressfree for me. This is the second time purchasing a property but I wish I had known about this mortgage broker for when we first purchased a home. I highly recommend them to anyone needing a reliable, friendly, and efficient mortgage broker. - S&C

This is a total bait & switch company. They advertise no closing costs but they don't tell you…read moreupfront about the discount points/fees they add on until the end. I went through all that hassle of providing all my info and having them pull my credit just to say I'm not going to pay $12,000 in discount points. That's where they get you. I told the loan officer I didn't want points upfront and I guess it went in one ear and out the other ear. The other negative is that you can only make one payment per month so no option for biweekly payments or if you want to add in an extra payment. It has to be in one payment a month. The customer service here is not friendly. The loan officer I got is very old school. Kept referring to coupons instead of statements. Everything is done online now. I don't keep papers of anything except my W2. Anyways this company wasted my time. Beware before you go with them

I feel obligated to give 2 stars because the fact is that RP got me the best rate on my refinance,…read morebut if it was even close to another company, I would have gone with someone else. I absolutely hated giving my business and money to these people. Called RP originally looking to refinance my mortgage once interest rates had gone down and values in my neighborhood had gone up. We thought we could eliminate mortgage insurance at this point. I had called RP for my original mortgage, but purchase mortgages are not their specialty and they didn't offer us the best deal. Broker was pleasant though and suggested I call when we're ready to refi, so I did. This time, Joey Marmo was our assigned broker. My dealings with Joey made me feel dirty. It was only marginally better than buying a car. The experience was miserable. Every time I asked a question, I got run around answers or vague answers until I asked the same question for the second or third time, angry and frustrated. He would repeatedly tell me that their deal was better than another, but not explain. For example, we had to bring some cash to closing to eliminate mortgage insurance because our appraisal screwed us, but I thought I found a better deal which clearly showed a lower cash to close. However, when I sent it to Joey, his only response was, "their deal is inferior, our loan costs are X, and in the interest of time, we're through discussing this. If you want to close, contact..." I understand his frustration to a degree - it was the 11th hour - but rather than explain how their costs were lower but the other company's cash to close was lower, he left it alone and then didn't answer me when I asked for his help understanding the discrepancy. Turns out the other company greatly understated the estimated payoff of my existing mortgage, which is how they were able to manipulate the cash to close number, but it took an hour of comparing line items to figure that out when Joey could have taken 2 seconds to explain it instead of being a slime about it. Also, his frustration wasn't fair considering throughout the underwriting process, I asked for specific numbers - monthly payment, cash to close, etc - and he repeatedly told me I had to wait for the closing disclosure for that info. So, to get upset with me when I continued to ask for the information I needed and you continued to brush me off isn't fair or professional. He actually said he wish I brought up the cash to close issue in the 5th inning instead of the bottom of the 9th when he was the one telling me for weeks I had to wait until the 9th inning for the info I needed. Finally, even the way they do business is a bit sleazy. While they did have the best numbers in the end, they had the highest origination fee by far. However, they make it up by giving a lender credit. So, kind of like a store that jacks up their prices before putting things on sale, they have outrageously high origination fees just so they can look like their giving you a great deal on the back end. Would be clearer and more straight forward to simply cut your origination fee to a more reasonable amount. Anyway, like I said, it was all about the numbers and RP was the best, so you should probably give them a chance. But if you're connected to Joey, ask for someone else, and be prepared for a bad experience to get the best numbers. Would have rather given my money and the commission to someone else, but to be fair, a friend helped me with my original mortgage and he ended up screwing me in the end, so I guess it's just an industry of sleaze.

After looking at homes all day Sunday, we arrived at the D. R. Horton town homes in Orlando at 6pm. The sales rep, Iris, was locking the front door and ready to go. My agent, Robert from LaRosa Realty, approached Iris and asked if we could see the display. Iris gladly opened up the 3 display units and I knew that I wanted to purchase this home. It is on a dead end street, well built and beautifully wooded area. An hour later, we submitted a contract to Iris for my new home. D.R. Horton immediately began processing the loan request the following day. For the next 30 days, Roxanne from D.R. Horton Mortgage worked diligently to get me approved, but in the end, I received notice that D.R. Horton Mortgage could not approve my loan due to my self employment income. Roxanne recommended Edgar from Equity Prime Mortgage. Roxanne sent all my loan documents to Edgar and his team via FedEx. Theresa, of Equity Prime, contacted me shortly thereafter and began the process of submitting the loan application to FHA. Within 30 days, I was cleared to close and moved in 2 days after my birthday. The entire experience was positive. Iris staying late to show me the home, helping me select the perfect one. Roxanne working hard to help me collect the required documentation. Edgar and Theresa at Prime Mortgage for putting the package together. The experience was so good, I referred my friend who used DHI and Equity Prime and moved in 4 houses down just last week. Thank you everyone at DHI and Equity Prime.
