Scott Criss and his team are top notch home finance professionals. Buying or refinancing is never "fun," but the Criss group takes the sting out of escrow by being thorough, efficient, communicative and breaking down technical jargon into terms we can all grasp. I've financed a property purchase AND a refinance through Scott, both interactions having left me with the impression that they are best in class. The passion Scott et al bring to the table can be heard in their voices and measured by their stellar results. "The best business, is repeat business." The Criss Group lives by these words, and will have mine for years to come. read more

I was a first-time home buyer and I shopped around with many banks, brokers, and even my new home builder. I found no one in the area a match for Scott's dedication. Scott went above and beyond on every phase of escrow. read more

From our first meeting with Scott we knew we made the right choice. From guiding us through on improving our credit to closing Scott and his team were THE BEST! Scott is very knowledgeable yet approachable with any and all of our questions. Through the whole process Scott was accessible and quick to reply with valuable information, all while being patient. We felt like his only and most important clients every time we spoke. His dedication and commitment to us was so comforting, we knew that he always had our best interest at heart. Even now, a month after closing he keeps an eye on us making sure everything is going well. The professionalism from this team is by far the best I've ever seen. AMAZING to work with - Scott has client for life! read more

Scott is very communicative, knowledgeable, and approachable. You can tell instantly when you speak with him that he is an expert in his field. Because of his deep understanding of loan interest rates and his analyst team, I was able to lock in a great rate amid today's climbing interest rate environment. Additionally, he made the documentation gathering process a breeze. Very thankful for Scott, and would definitely recommend him again! read more

What a great company to work with. Communication is awesome. The knowledge brought to the table by Scott Criss is the best I have experienced in this industry. Scott was able to talk me down as my builder met delays and he was always explaining to me what I can do based on his knowledge. Great job! read more

Scott and The Criss Group have helped me to purchase 2 homes now, and both times I have had a great experience! Scott is always super available and responsive, and takes the time to explain everything every step of the way. He is always keeping your (my!) best interests at heart and will tell you honestly what he thinks. I would highly recommend using his services for your next home purchase. read more

Scott really makes your life easier in the process of home buying. You don't need anything but integrity, support and timeliness. Thanks, Scott!!! read more

Wow, I really appreciate Scott. He is efficient, responsive, and knowledgeable. I love his site for document submissions. It's different and made submitting paperwork simple. It clearly outlined what was needed and gave regular status updates. I never felt lost during the process. He answered questions and made plans on how to approach complicated aspects of the loan. He understood the in's and out's. I felt like we made decisions together but he gave great guidance. Scott provided well-timed predictions that allowed me to most benefit from my refi. Even after it was funded, he gave great tips on scams to look out for and how he'll be in touch in the future to make sure everything goes smoothly when payments begin. 100% better than my previous experience. Clearly a boss and an expert in his field. read more

Just finished closing on my new home. I can not say enough regarding the personal service and dedication to help me through this process. Especially in this hectic time the Criss group guided me and help me get into my new house. I highly recommend anyone that needs this service to use The Criss Group! read more

Very helpful team!! my case was pretty messy, but they finished it ON TIME! not only the cost is low, and save me extra $$ at the last min! Thumbs up!! read more

I was referred to Scott for a mortgage in 2008. I was self employed and couldn't get a mortgage to buy a condo because the market was such a mess. Scott was amazing - he was able to close a great loan at market rate for me. Since then, Scott has handled 2 new mortgages, and 2 refis for me (the most recent one closed today). He really knows his business, and is up to date on the frequent changes in regulations. He takes the time to explain and re-explain the intricacies of the market & the loan process to me. Most importantly, Scott, is über responsive. He always returns calls & emails. I also worked with Brenda on all the paperwork for the latest refi. Brenda was completely responsive, professional and helpful throughout the whole process too. I'm so grateful to have Scott on my RE team & cannot recommend him enough. read more

Scott and his team are awesome, they are always on top of everything. I definitely appreciate their professionalism, sense of urgency, and communication. If you are looking for a loan officer that has your best interest at heart and is on your side all the way til the end and beyond, it is Scott Criss and his team. He helped my family with our new construction home purchase. It was a pleasure to work with such a great team that we also decided to refinance our 2nd home with Scott at the same time we are purchasing our primary home. I can't thank you enough Scott and Cheryl for all you've done, we definitely will be working with you again in the near future. read more

What an amazing experience! We are the first time home buyers and of course were overwhelmed by the whole process in the beginning. Scott and his team made it so easy and smooth for us!! They were always available when we had questions, helped us greatly with all the paperwork and just made us feel they got our back. THANK YOU SO MUCH! Diana & Tito read more

Scott is truly great. He made everything really easy and concise. He sent us emails to keep us up to date on what we have submitted to him and what he still needed. I would say his skills include: organization, fast response time, detail oriented, creative, hard-working, and empathy. He is there for you and will always help you in anyway to make your home purchase a reality. In fact, he is so responsible and on top of things my sister was working with a different broker and it wasn't going well, I told her to call Scott and he literally was able to get all her loan docs in order in under 1 week, something that took her other agent 3 weeks and it still wasn't done. Look nowhere else, Scott is your man!" Thanks soooooooooooooooooo much! read more

First time home buyer here. Going in not knowing much I think it's natural to feel a little vulnerable to the whole experience. Scott completely erased any of this. When we first met we never felt any pressure, just a want on his part to make us informed home buyers if anything. He is friendly, honest, and extremely up front about everything. Scott stresses the importance of education and was willing to explain every little detail, fee, etc. that occurs along the way. There are always questions that can come up but he was always quick to respond to clear things up and never once did we feel in the dark about anything. Scott and Brenda work well together and keep you informed of every step along the way. Their e-status updates were very welcomed and help you follow along in the process. At the end of the day, Scott was clear and up front about what we were going to pay to close and never were we hit sideways with anything extra we didn't anticipate. In fact, the closing ended up a little better in our favor than anticipated! Thanks again guys, highly recommend. read more

The entire team that Scott has at Eagle Home Mortgage really served me well. They were fast and efficient with all the documentation and took the time to walk me through any uncertainties I had with my Refi. Scott also personally waked me through several different loan scenarios over several different meetings to make sure that I was picking the option that was right for me. Best of all, I always felt like I was client #1 with Scott. He always had time to talk with me and always valued my time as much as his. read more

Scott- you and your team have done it again. You've again lowered my payment ($250) and gave me a wonderful analysis for my long savings. You were quick and efficient. What has impressed me the most is when I brought you another loan to help me refinance and take cash out to do some remodeling, you actually advised against what I was planning on doing. You could've just gone with it and done the refinance but instead you looked out for my best interest. A remodel of my filled-in pool would have costed me way more in the long run and would not have been a good return on my investment for this situation. That is ABSOLUTE INTEGRITY ----You have completely earned my trust and loyalty for many years to come. Thank you again for everything! Rosemary read more

Scott is at the top of his game. I have worked with scott for over 15 years and I can tell you that he knows the mortgage business better than most. He has helped me multiple times and I trust him! read more

We had the most amazing experience working with Scott & his team! Everyone was not only knowledgeable & professional but also proactive in the entire process! Loan processing could be very stressful, but working with them feels like they've got your back, and all you have to do is follow their lead! I would highly recommend my dream team to anyone looking for help in this business! read more

I worked w/ Scott and his team for a 21 day COE and their team was AMAZING! We received real time updates for every step of the Loan Process, and because of Scott's due diligence, expertise, and the effort of his entire team, we ended up ahead of schedule! Scott and his team were also readily available to answer questions & tackle any concerns on both the buyer and listing side, which made everyone feel supported and well taken care of. I HIGHLY recommend Scott Criss & his team!! read more

Scott & The Criss Group are phenomenal! They are extremely well organized, efficient, personable and responsive - answering any and every question we had! They helped us buy our first home with a great rate in a highly competitive market. Scott was always one step ahead! I highly recommend Scott & The Criss Group and we will definitely be returning for any future needs. :) read more

There is a reason why Scott Criss and the Criss group, have an outstanding reputation. Scott has a way to make you feel as if your his only client, he keeps you posted via email, text and phone call through out the entire process. We had some issues with our original loan, Scott and his group walked us through it. A couple of months after we completed the process he reached out to make sure we where all set up for our first payment on our new loan. If rates drop again I will reach out to Scott again. This is a first class organization, if your looking to refinance, look no further. read more

This is the second time that I have worked with Scott and his amazing team at Eagle. Their knowledge, customer service and promptness are top-of-the-mark. I highly recommend them and would use them again. This was the easiest mortgage transaction I have ever completed. Thank you, Eagle, for your outstanding service!!! read more

Scott Criss is a great person to work with...he is fair, fast and very knowledge! One thing I liked most was his immediate response time. If I had a question or needed a pre-approval Scott was there for me. You need that in this market to be that ready buyer. I must have drove him crazy over 5 years with mulifple offers, but I finally landed a home and that's when him and his team did everything to close the deal.*:*¨¨*:*.THANK YOU SCOTT*¨¨*:*.FIVE*:*¨¨*:*.STAR.*:*¨¨*:*.HIGHLY RECOMMEND.*:*¨¨*:*. read more

I am a Realtor and have worked with many lenders. Scott went above and beyond throughout this entire transaction and really stood out from the pack. He was in constant communication, had a great online system of keeping us in the loop on the loan's progress, and was quick to be proactive if he ever thought we would run into any issues (which we really didn't). The loan closed smoothly and my client is thrilled with his new house. Thank you so much, Scott!! read more

Current mortgage rates looked good and so I called Scott Criss again to refinance. I've worked with many industry experts but without a doubt Scott is one of the best. I know that everybody and their brothers/sisters are in real estate but if you're looking for somebody who can educat & /help you with home loan, I highly recommend calling Scott! read more

I am VERY glad I chose Scott Criss and his team as my Mortgage Lender when I purchased my home. The process was seamless, and we closed early. On top of that, Scott navigated a very turbulent bond market to help me time just right when to float/lock my rate, and gave some excellent advice that ended up saving me thousands of dollars. Scott communicated with me throughout the process, I was never left wondering what was going on, and he was very responsive when I called or emailed him. Can't say enough good about this experience, 5 out of 5 stars. Thanks Scott! read more

Scott and Brenda are absolutely amazing. From day 1, they explained every detail of the process, and gave us sound and realistic recommendations; which gave us great comfort that we were working with a solid and experienced team. I would not consider myself an easy client, and to be quite honest - a bit demanding at times, however they were extremely attentive and responsive to all of my questions and concerns. read more

Scott and his team are wonderful to work with! My husband and I didn't think we could qualify for a home but he made it happen. He always made the time to talk with us and answer our questions. We felt totally involved in the process and overall was much easier than we expected. We even closed a week early! We would definitely recommend Scott and his team to anyone looking to buy a home. You won't be sorry! read more

As a Real Estate Broker, I've been helping buyers for years and introducing them to different mortgage brokers along the way. Scott's knowledge, integrity, and solutions far exceed any service I and my clients have ever received. He has a strong and diligent team who is with the buyer every step of the way. His level of customer service is sky high. And very importantly, his "after closing" service exceeds many I've worked with before. read more

By far the most knowledgeable and respectable mortgage company! Scott and the team go above and beyond to make everything easy. We wouldn't think of using anyone else! read more

Scott and Brenda are awesome to work with, they are so helpful at answering any questions you have and explain everything so crystal clear. They both are really on top of their game because with my situation they were still able to get me the loan to purchased my first condo. I would definitely refer them to anyone I know. I am glad to have them in my back pocket for future loans. Thanks again Scott and Brenda!!!!! read more

Scott Criss went above and beyond our expectations to make sure that my family was able to get the home of our dreams. Scott is a financial wizard and a creative force! We didn't have the easiest loan to close but Scott always had solutions to any problem that would rear its head. He's relentless, tireless and amazingly positive and organized. He is exactly the person you need on your side when making the huge life decision to buy a new house or refinance. I proudly recommend Scott Criss! read more

Scott was excellent to work with. He took the time to explain the loan process and answer any questions I had. Scott and his team were great with communication. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to buy a home. read more

READ THIS... I have a very unique case when it comes to qualifying for Conventional Loans. Many brokers / institutions will outright deny my eligibility based upon what is presented. However, Scott is on a different level. He really understands the "ins and out" of loans and what it takes to qualify. He has this extreme creative ability to take unconventional variables and presented in ways to make things fit within the guidelines. Because of that, I HAVE A CONVENTIONAL LOAN. Thank you Scott! read more

As a first time home buyer, the loan process is stressful. Scott and Mike made the process simple. I am beyond impressed with their kindness and continued communication in our home buying process. But what has set them apart is this: I went to Scott because he's with Eagle and we knew we wanted to buy a new home. The builder has a relationship with Eagle and we wanted to know what we qualified for and get the process started. What we didn't know is that Scott wasn't with the builder division. I began the process in January and despite knowing we would be buying new, they treated us the same as they would if they would have handling the loan all the way through. In May we put our earnest money down and Mike and Scott partnered with the new loan office to ensure our complete file was transferred without a hitch. To this day, nearly 9 months since starting our home buying adventure, Scott and Mike still check in AND will still help and advocate where they can. If you're looking for exceptional top notch service that still has the personal touch, choose Scott and Mike. They are honest and direct and have your best interest in mind. read more

Buying your first home is a daunting experience. It was amazing having Scott Criss in our corner to help answer any questions we had. He had detailed well explained answers to all the questions we had, and was very down to earth. Any time something came up that we needed assistance with or an answer to he was there. He effortlessly handled my husband and I being in two different time zones, and neither one with him. At one point we were working with a 16 hr time difference! There was a dramatic difference from the first mortgage company we attempted to deal with, who left us in the dark and made us seriously consider if we wanted to buy a house. If we ever buy again or have any friends buy in the area we will absolutely use/recommend Scott Criss with Eagle Home Mortgage. read more

The staff at Eagle Home Mortgage is very trusting and knowledgeable and was a pleasure to work with! I had a very complex file and they were honest and open every step of the way! As a first time home buyer, I was very nervous and did not know much about the process. At my very first visit, Scott really took the time to explain what to expect from the very start all the way to the end! He went over the different loan types, what options I had, the pros and cons of each one and educated me in order for me to feel confident with the decisions I made! Everyone on the team has a very specific role during the process and each one of them go above expectations, is extremely pleasant to work with, were very quick, efficient and organized and they are all amazing at what they do! read more

As a Realtor I have to depend on lenders to process loans efficiently and quickly. Scott did this for the buyers of my seller's home. I will recommend him to buyers any day! Bridget-Best Homes Team. read more

Scott and his team are great at what they do. As a realtor, you want hard working and integrity driven people on your team and Scott is exactly that. They worked hard to keep the wheels turning on our escrow and got my clients closed quickly in a smooth and seamless transaction. read more
