I did not know a single thing about buying a house, but I had a friend who did. She referred me to…read moreJonathan, and listening to that friend was the best decision I have made in a long time. I'd heard nightmare stories of people going to lenders and being told "you have to pay this, do that, wait..." So I called Jonathan about 4 months before I really even planned to apply. You see, in that moment he really had no reason to help me if you think about it. I wasn't paying him any money, and in a world where time is money he was providing his time and expertise to me who really had nothing to offer for months to come. THAT is the measure. He not only explained the process very clearly and kindly, but he followed up with an email for all that we discussed, assessed my situation, and sent me a timeline for the next 6 months. I was so impressed. Anytime I emailed him, he responded. He also connected me to an AMAZING agent in Lauren Pratt, and together they made it a very streamlined process. Not once did I find it stressful, at all times I was kept abreast of things, and well ahead of time. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the first time we met face to face was at closing and he was super cool. He shared with my partner and me his love for non-profits and was really outgoing. Being in non-profit work, I loved finding out that he is connected to many non profits. He also does projects alongside them, giving back every chance he gets. I would and will recommend Jonathan to anyone looking for a mortgage loan. If you are just starting your home buying experience, reach out to Jonathan. You won't regret it!

I quickly realized that Brent's 5 star review history is a real rarity in this type of business. Brent's team worked hard to make us feel like we were buying the most expensive house on the planet. Anytime we had a question no matter how big or small we got an almost immediate response. They gave us all our options in financing our new home and took the time to explain to us the pros/cons of each of them. I have zero hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking to purchase a new property. When the time comes (many, many years from now) that we are looking to purchase another home we will definitely give Brent a call.
