I worked with Keith last fall to refinance the mortgage on my condo. Through the whole process Keith was professional, informative and very responsive. I would highly recommend Keith for any of your future mortgage needs! read more

I was considering refinancing given the favorable current mortgage rates, so given my past awesome experience with Keith, I reached out to him again to check in about it. He responded promptly, and walked me through the various options, including a detailed look at what my savings would be with the different choices. The whole process went smoothly yet again, in spite of the pandemic, and my fantastic 5-star impression of working with Keith goes unchanged. read more

I have done at least 4 mortgages/refi's with Keith over the past 10 years or so and highly recommend him to anyone searching for a loan. My wife and I have complicated asset holdings/structures which makes applying for a mortgage quite complicated for us, and Keith's thoroughness and attention to detail have helped the process be smooth sailing each time. This past time as COVID-19 hit, he proactively reached out to us to take advantage of great rates when it started, and then closely babysat the situation in order to ensure it went through as financial markets began to go crazy. He is great to work with and a good guy - not the pushy sales type at all. We could not recommend him higher. read more

I highly recommend Keith for your mortgage needs. It had been almost 13 years since I purchased a home, and my first home in Chicago......and in the middle of a global pandemic. Keith was kind and thoughtful as I asked multiple questions, sometimes the same questions, multiple times. He made the process, during an anxious time for me, less stressful. Keith explained my options, made knowledgeable recommendations, stayed on top of the rate situation and locked in an amazing rate for me. He is a skilled and accomplished mortgage professional who I am happy to refer friends and family to. read more

I highly recommend Keith Stewart for your mortgage needs. I contacted Keith over a year ago and have tried to work a number of deals and Keith was always willing to work with me. After a few failed deals, I was finally able to close on a 4 flat. Trying to obtain a mortgage these days is pretty unpleasant but Keith took the pain out of many of the steps. He is very knowledgeable and does everything possible to mitigate any hiccups along the way. Also, he is good at keeping you informed of everything and very prompt in returning any calls into him. Bottom line, I hope to be using him again as soon as possible on another deal. read more

For a second time, Keith diligently helped us with our financing needs. We finally bought a house with a complex loan situation and some closing glitches. Keith was on top of it every second of the couple months it took to close. He fixed problems that were probably beyond his responsibility. Keith does an excellent job and is very easy to talk to and work with. read more

I've gotten two mortgages through Keith, he always provided me the best rates, insights, and mortgage options. He takes his time to explain the process and is always willing to answer any questions or provide vendor recommendations if needed. If this is your first time or third time purchasing a home Keith is the mortgage broker to find the best options for your mortgage needs. read more

Keith is a great mortgage broker. I have used him for now the third time which included both personal and investment properties. He is very knowledgeable and always comes through with better rates than those offered by vendors recommended by real estate brokers. It pays to shop around. And not only does he get great rates but he is very responsive and always makes sure all the i's are dotted and t's crossed so closings get done quickly and efficiently. read more

We just worked with Keith again - for the third time - this time on a refinance. We got a great deal and are lowering our monthly payments and recovering our closing costs in 6 months. Thanks for all of your great work, Keith! read more

Keith is a total professional and i wouldn't hesitate in the slightest recommending him for refi needs. He went above and beyond and made my experience as painless as possible. read more

I would recommend Keith Stewart to anyone looking for a friendly knowledgable local mortgage broker. After having terrible experiences with big banks, we decided to stay local. The experience couldn't have been better. Keith was readily accessible at all times and was very patience in a nerve racking process. He was calm and collected, and took the time to answer all our questions. Unlike big banks, when he quoted a closing cost and date...both were correct and on time. Keith was there at closing to make sure we felt comfortable. He was much more efficient than his industry counter-parts we would recommend him for the Chicago realty market. read more

It was time to refinance so I went back to Keith. Another great experience. I changed my mind about terms a couple of times and he patiently walked me through all of the options. In the end I got a great rate and absolutely no hassle. What more can you ask for? read more

I worked with Keith recently buying our house in deerfield. He was very helpful and took time to explain the process. I had lots of questions but he always got back to me right away. I have recommened Keith to friends and family and will in the future. Over all I feel that Keith was very honest and that I could trust him to help me choose the best morgage for me. read more

I usually do not write reviews for services as much as I should but when services are provided that exceed expectations....a review is the least I could do!! Keith helped my family obtaining a mortgage. His depth knowledge of the mortgage industry provided us with information and success with a very complex loan situation. I do not know what we would have done without his help. Keith was very professional, patient and knowledgable. He showed up prompt and on time to our closing with all paperwork needed on hand. I would recommend Keith to anyone who needs mortgage assistance because he is a master of his profession for sure!!! Thanks Keith!! Keep doing what you do Best!!! Nicole and Mike :) read more

Since 2009, I've had four excellent transactions brokered by Kieth - three purchases, one refinance - plus another undertaking where Keith's creativity and dedication turned a hopeless refinance situation into two unbelievably palatable options. In each of these interactions, Keith has exhibited extensive experience in all sorts of real estate finance transactions and has never hesitated to discuss - often at length - the minute details of these complicated, time-consuming transactions. He responds promptly to calls and emails and frequently employs an army of contacts and resources to make a deal go through successfully. An all around friendly guy and a joy to work with, I look forward to my next opportunity to engage Keith's services. read more

I called Keith regarding a refinance for a family member who lives in the Chicago area. It was important for me to find somebody who was knowledgeable and could take care of the situation at hand. Keith kept us informed along the way and successfully closed the deal. Job well done. read more

Keith Stewart handled our mortgage refinance a couple of months ago. I was very impressed with how he took the time to share with us his knowledge of what's going on in the finance industry and the various factors that affect mortgage rates so that we could make the most informed decisions. Mortgage transactions are not something that we do very often, and we were really concerned, given the recent blows to the banking and finance industry -- Keith was accessible any time we had a question during the entire process, explaining the details every step of the way. He even accompanied us to our closing to make sure everything went smoothly for us, which we greatly appreciated. A lot of mortgage professionals wouldn't go the extra mile like that. I highly recommend his work and his integrity. read more

Keith Stewart is highly recommended for exceptional reasons and my Husband & I are very satisfied with the results! Keith is a first-rate professional, extremely efficient and has top-knowledge in this mortgage business. We truly enjoyed a very satisfying working experience with Keith. Keith also went above & beyond --- we didn't know yet that we qualified for the Homeowners Exemption though Keith covered that topic and he immediately sent us all the appropriate paperwork. Keith also saved us a step in the 'name change' process and had the Title Co. take care of everything -- a 1-stop shop which saved us plenty of time & not having to leave work. Keith was very accessible when we needed questions answered via email, via telephone & in-person meetings. Scheduling was made convenient for us. Keith thoroughly covered the entire process of financing/re-financing -- he turned what could be a nerve-wrecking process into a very comfortable forward process -- we truly appreciated that and all he did for us!! Thank you so much, Keith! We will gladly send our family & friends to Keith! read more

I would highly recommend Keith. We just bought a house and Keith helped us with the mortgage. It was great working with him as he made everything easy for us. He's a great communicator and always kept us updated. read more

I really don't write reviews on the internet but I could not pass this one up about Keith Stewart the Mortgage Consultant. I bought my property in 2001 and Keith Stewart was my banker who explained every detail of the finance process to me until I was extremely comfortable to sign on the dotted lines of about 50 pages. LOL!! At the time Keith worked at a different company. About eight years later, Keith Stewart mailed me a refrigerator magnet which included his new information (thank goodness). I kept the magnet on my refrigerator just in case I dabbled in the buying market again. A total of fourteen years later of owning my property, I decided to refinance my property for a lower interest rate. Honestly (and logically) I tried to refinance with my own mortgage company at the time. The process was confusing, there were four different people I had to talk to (one for the actual contract, one for mortgage title, another for collecting documents and the last one for underwriting). After three months of waiting on an answer from my mortgage company, I reached out to Keith Stewart and asked him a ton of questions about the market, refinancing, etc.. OMG!!! Mr. Stewart was professional (as I expected), honest, humble, funny (yes), and patient. Did I say patient? Yes, very patient. Due to my own mortgage company keeping me in limbo (no word of acceptance or denial of the refinance loan), I began the refinance process with Mr. Stewart. My refinance loan was officially accepted a week later and I closed on the refinance loan three weeks thereafter. I only spoke with Mr. Stewart who had all the answers and if he didn't, he researched the answer (s) for me. He made the process soooooo simple and easy!! I am elated to have kept Keith Stewart information, contacted him for refinancing and spread his name to my family and friends. He is great at what he does and very knowledgeable. Also, his newsletters are very informative regarding the property market, interest rates, and other current information. I plan to definitely use Keith Stewart again when I am ready to buy another property. All thanks to Mr. Stewart for another very satisfied customer. My advice is to use him, you will be added to the population of "very satisfied consumers"!! read more

I tried Keith because of the other good reviews. I found him to be the exact opposite. My affairs are extremely complex. He did not seem to be able to handle this. He refused to explain why he had questions and replied " this is the way I do things." He returned a call at 5:00 on a Friday with the message he was leaving town for two weeks and would not be available. He was defensive that I was disappointed by his lack of communication. In general, he is inflexible defensive and can only handle routine matters. read more
