FIVE STARS!!! Top recommendation! Call Carolyn!!! I…read morereached out to Carolyn after my unexpected and ugly divorce, feeling completely overwhelmed. I desperately wanted to keep our family home so my kids could have stability in the only house they've ever known--but I didn't think I could afford a buyout. Before finding Carolyn, I had some discouraging experiences with other loan officers--one mocked me for being a federal employee and said I was a risk; another dismissed my questions with "you can Google that." By the time I connected with Carolyn, I was exhausted and despondent. From our very first call, everything changed. Carolyn's incredibly knowledgeable and knows how to navigate the complexities of loans (and divorce) - but what truly sets her apart is her heart. She is one of the kindest, most compassionate people I've ever worked with. She patiently answered every single question I had (and there were many!), never once making me feel like a burden. She kept me informed every step of the way, handled every hurdle with grace, and stayed fully engaged from start to finish. Most importantly, she gave me confidence. Instead of feeling lost or intimidated, I felt empowered--because she took time to explain everything clearly and truly acted as my advocate. To my amazement, Carolyn showed me that I could afford to buy out my ex - and helped me get a great rate! She guided me through every step of the process with care and professionalism. She came highly recommended by my financial advisor, and now I completely understand why. She didn't just help me get a loan--she helped me keep my home and create stability for my kids during one of the hardest times in my life. If you're looking for someone who's both a top financial professional AND a genuinely caring human being, CALL CAROLYN! She's a brilliant loan officer/fairy godmother - and I'm forever grateful.

Her up front and honest opinion not only helped us decide which program to go with but also helped saved us money. Meghan is prompt in getting you any information you request and will explain it in detail. I am not a pen and paper kind of guy and being to submit all requested paperwork over the internet or fax definitively shows that Meghan and her team are top notch. I would use her and her team again in a second and recommend you give her a chance to blow your mind!

Eric was everything we needed and wanted in a loan officer. My wife and I moved across the country…read moreto a new city and were searching for a home to buy. Eric made sure everything during this process was done quickly, but also made sure all of our questions and concerns were addressed. He got us pre-approvals on properties to make it easier to act fast while we were looking to ensure we did not miss out on a property due to a late offer. Then after finding the property we wanted to buy, Eric was able to complete all of the loan paperwork and other closing details in order for us to close in just 25 days time. If you are looking for a responsive, hardworking, honest and trustworthy person to help you get a mortgage, look no further than the Loan Arranger, Eric Weinstein.

He's a pragmatic loan officer who will help you both in the pre and post steps of the home buying process. Upon first meeting him, he described the options I had available to me and helped me pick the best loan option for my time horizon. After landing on a house and ratifying a contract, he immediately helped me knock out all the items that could hold up or delay closing. We were pre-approved to close well before the closing date - giving me peace of mind. I would certainly use Eric again as he can get many things done that other lenders cannot.

I chose NVR Mortgage because I believed using their preferred lender would make purchasing our new…read moreRyan Home a smooth and seamless experience. Unfortunately, my experience was the exact opposite. From the beginning, my husband and I acted in good faith. We signed our purchase agreement in October 2025, provided every document requested, paid for the appraisal and credit reports, and remained committed to closing on our home. We even accepted using NVR Mortgage because we were told our $28,721 seller incentive depended on financing through them. As we moved closer to closing, I began noticing inconsistencies with the interest rate, discount points, and loan costs. Rather than ignoring my concerns, I asked for explanations and requested transparent pricing. Instead of receiving clear answers, I experienced delays, inconsistent information, and a lack of transparency regarding my loan. The most devastating part of the experience occurred just days before our scheduled March 26, 2026 closing. After receiving what appeared to be final approval, wire instructions, and completing our New Home Orientation, we were suddenly informed that our loan had been denied approximately 48 hours before closing. At that time, I was already dealing with serious medical issues and had been hospitalized twice during the loan process. Rather than working with us to resolve our concerns, the process became increasingly stressful and emotionally exhausting. What should have been one of the happiest moments of our lives became one of the most traumatic. What makes this experience even more difficult to understand is that shortly afterward we were able to obtain financing through another lender using substantially the same financial information. That left us questioning why we had endured months of confusion, uncertainty, and emotional distress. This experience affected far more than a mortgage transaction. It impacted my health, my family, my peace of mind, and what should have been a joyful milestone as newlyweds purchasing our first home together. I believe borrowers deserve transparency, honesty, timely communication, and consistency throughout the mortgage process. Based on my experience, I did not receive that level of service from NVR Mortgage. I sincerely hope the company reviews its lending practices and communication processes so that future homebuyers do not experience the confusion, stress, and hardship that my family endured.

I cannot say enough good things about our experience with West Bart and his team at Affordable Home…read moreMortgage. We were in an unusual starting position, but West handled our situation with on-point knowledge, excellent advice, and a refreshing and consistent level of stellar customer service, as well as a hefty amount of patience. He truly held our hand through this buying experience (my first), and was always up front with what to expect and how things would work out, while also keeping a vigilant eye on market conditions and potential impacts to the interest rates at the time, as well. Despite being a busy broker, we were not once ever treated as though we weren't his most important client, and truly felt he was personally invested in our home purchase and buying experience. West Bart is very good at what he does, and if you're considering the differences between a regular bank and a Mortgage Broker, I urge you to choose Broker and call West. He is patient, takes the time to truly make sure you're comfortable and educated throughout the entire process, and helped make our dreams of home ownership a reality. He even recommended an insurance agent that helped us save a tremendous amount of money, as well!
