Being a first-time home buyer and largely ignorant of the process, I was feeling overwhelmed. Naively, I called the national bank I had used, without issue, for over 12 years, seeking advice. But they left me with more questions than answers. And every "mortgage adviser" I spoke with, addressed me with the same impatience and disdain of one who is tired of his or her job. To them, I was indistinguishable from the next customer, almost disposable. And then I found Eddie Fernandez, at Orlando Financial Center. Our first conversation lasted 35 minutes. With respect and patience, Eddie addressed every concern and clarified every confusion. I then met him and his staff in person and was received with genuine warmth and generosity. Despite my cynical nature, I began to trust them. In the end, I was rewarded for doing so. Every email, text, and phone call was answered promptly and thoroughly. With their guidance, at no point did I feel lost or even worried. My first home-buying experience, at the risk of sounding even more hyperbolic, was flawless. Without hesitation, I recommended Orlando Financial Center to friends and family and encourage all others interested to give them a call. read more

Orlando Financial Center is about as good as it gets! They helped my wife and I buy our first home a few months ago. I need to say that we live in Jacksonville, FL and they helped me just as if I was right down the street. Kevin Kennedy took many hours of his time to explain every type of mortgage and the rates were very competitive. When we decided to go with them, the process seemed incredibly easy. You would think as a first time home buyer that there would be many bumps...not the case! Kevin was there to answer any questions I had and even called me to just give updates along the way. We were able to close 27 days after we went to contract! I was told that this was incredibly fast and it could have been even 21 days if the sellers title company would have moved faster! The sellers were even impressed at how quickly Kevin and his team were able to move and get the mortgage ready. There was never any pressure from Kevin and I didn't feel pressured to chose a financing that would "make the mortgage company profit more" like so many of them try to do. I would definitely use them again and will highly recommend them to friends and family. read more

Kevin Kennedy and the entire staff are HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Kevin was incredibly reliable and honest during each step of the process. We had a very challenging close but at no point in time did I have to worry about funding because we knew Kevin had our backs. Working with Kevin was a breath of fresh air, you can tell he genuinely cares for his clients. We could tell this within minutes of speaking with him. It was our first time buying a home so at the beginning of the process he walked us through it and was there each step along the way. He even took a couple of hours of his weekend evening to help us get funding when it was imperative that we had preapproval by the next morning. While we were thrown unexpected challenges outside of our control, he was able to help us overcome them and got us into our dream home! We closed at the end of the month when the market was red hot; Kevin took the time out of his day to actually come to our closing to celebrate a huge victory that, at times in the process, we thought was going to be impossible. Thank you Kevin, we are so thankful for you and for the opportunity to work with you! read more

Nancy at Orlando Financial is truly the best! My husband and I closed a few months ago. This is the second house that Nancy has helped us purchase. We had to sell our old home to be able to purchase our new one and Nancy never skipped a beat. We never had to wait on her for anything. She was quick to get us whatever we needed. She is the main reason why we were able to close on our old and new home in the same day. Nancy is extremely timely to respond to emails/calls. She is organized and makes sure that you understand everything as you move forward. There are so many steps before you actually get those house keys and Nancy makes sure that it is as stress-free as possible. She will work her tail off to get you the best deal. We highly recommend Nancy and often give her name out whenever we know someone is looking to buy. read more

Nancy Pitt and her colleagues were very efficient, thorough and were a pleasure to work with! Nancy was referred to us by our real estate agent and we were pleasantly surprised by her knowledge and professionalism. She held our hands through the entire mortgage process and was very patient and kind when answering all of our questions. What a stress-free experience! Nancy was always available via phone and email (always returned calls and emails same day). Nancy asked us all of the right questions, got all of our financial information/statements up front and got all everything in order so that she could ensure there would be no hiccups during the process. PERFECT EXECUTION. My wife and I will recommend Nancy and the Orlando Financial Center to all of our friends and acquaintances. Thanks again, Nancy! read more

I am a Realtor® in the Orlando area and I have worked with many mortgage brokers over the years. Iliani Giannoni and Eddie Fernandez from OFC definitely stand out above the rest. Not only is Iliani knowledgeable, but she has an uncanny ability to make my customers very comfortable in what can be a very uncomfortable process. She takes the time to fully explain complex lending issues. At my last closing, Iliani and Eddie helped one of my customers take over the process from another lender three weeks in and closed it within 15 days; three days ahead of schedule. Impressive! I'm not saying they can work magic like that on every file, but I will say they did it when my customer needed it. I will continue to do business with these professionals and I encourage you to do the same. read more

As first time home buyers, my wife and I were intimidated by the process. We were referred to Orlando Financial Center and were unsure about expectations. Kevin Kennedy took the time to walk us through the entire process, answering all of our seemingly stupid questions along the way and did so with a charming and thoughtful approach. He and the team at Orlando Financial Center went the extra mile to help us feel comfortable with our situation, the process, and the next steps. When it came time to lock in rates and execute the process, the team did an outstanding job gathering and preparing the next steps on our behalf. On closing day, we expected chaos; instead, it was unbelievably easy & efficient. I highly recommend Kevin and the team at Orlando Financial Center. read more

Nancy Pitt in my estimation is the BEST! She was recommended by my Realtor and she earned my respect and trust from our first meeting. She put together my mortgage in less than 30 days from start to finish. This was between Thanksgiving and Christmas! Her team were always competent and smiling on the phone, never once did they drop the ball on anything. Recently I asked her to refinance my home from FHA to a conventional, from 30 yrs (original) to 15 years. Again she put together the numbers in my favor and even dropped the interest rate. Nancy and her team are always on top of whatever is needed to complete the mortgage process. They are the calm in the storm. Nancy Pitt is the only one I recommend to my friends, whether buying a home or refinancing. read more

I am grateful that I had the opportunity to work with Kevin Kennedy, Iliani Giannoni, and Juliet Colson. I sincerely thank you for all of your hard work and dedication.

I bought a condo last February and was assisted by Miss Nancy L. Pitt, Mortgage Loan Originator. I have purchased two other homes in the recent past, and the transaction done with the assistance of Miss Pitt was so smooth and she was on top of any detail I could think of. I consider myself a demanding customer, and Miss Pitt left me smiling and pleased with her forward thinking of what's the next step. I strongly recommend her professional services if you are on the market for someone that is knowledgeable and pays attention to detail. Thank you Miss Pitt. read more

The service that I received from the Orlando Financial Center team was absolutely outstanding. I really appreciate the honesty and patience in walking through the whole mortgage process and the prompt attention to all my requirements and concerns. They showed that they really cared about getting the best options for me and my family in terms of the mortgage. Also, it helped a lot that the team speaks Spanish. I highly recommend this company to get a mortgage. Thank you OFC team for everything you did for us so we can get the house that we were looking for. read more

Lourdes and her team were extremely professional, personable, and responsive. They were available even during after hours and on weekends which was very much appreciated. They answered all of my questions quickly and smartly. Best of all, when it got close to closing time, and panic and doubt on my part started setting in, Lourdes was there to reassure me that all will be well - she was right. I now own a lovely piece of Florida paradise thanks in no small part to Lourdes and her team. My only regret is that I could give more stars in this rating. read more

Nancy Pitt was wonderful. As a first time home buyer I was completely clueless about the whole process of buying a home. Nancy took the time to educate me on the process. She was on top of everything and kept me on track with everything I needed to do. She was there for me every step of the way. I can't tell you how invaluable her service is. The transaction was flawless. She's a top notch pro. The Domingo family will always be indebted to you Nancy. We are so grateful and you will never be far from our thoughts. Many thanks. read more

We loved working with Nancy Pitt! She made our home buying experience great and easy. She is extremely knowledgeable and wise. Nancy gave us expert advice and very precise estimations. She provided excellent service throughout the entire process. Her work ethic is exceptional. She answered all our questions thoroughly and promptly. She went the extra mile for us, even came to our closing and sent us a reminder to make our first mortgage payment. We encourage anyone buying a home to call Nancy Pitt. She is the very best!!! read more

WOW - what else could I say about a team of professionals who went OUT OF THEIR WAY to ensure my wife and I were able to buy our dream home in Mt Dora?!? Whether it was a mountain of paperwork to climb or an unexpected credit challenge to overcome, Lourdes and her team made magic happen. I can't stress enough how their hard work was the SOLE reason we were blessed with such a gorgeous home. If I could give them more than 5 stars, I most certainly would - please use them for all your lending needs! read more

You can't be in better hands when making such a big life decision. My husband Dustin and I chose to venture into the home buying market right before our wedding. If it wasn't for the entire team at Orlando Financial, we wouldn't have gotten our dream home. We went through many obstacles and not once did they seem annoyed or tired of working with us. Their knowledge and advice were crucial in the mortgage process and we got the house! We adore our new home and can't wait to make memories here. read more

When I think of to notch service, I think of the way Kevin Kennedy and his team at Orlando Financial Center treated my wife and I during our recent refinance of our home. Every step of the way, Kevin was there to answer our questions as well as advise us in what the best options for us were. Kevin even showed up to our closing, even though it was just a refinance, and all we had to do is sign our names about 100 times. Thank you Kevin for your professionalism and kind service. read more
