Giving five stars and a glowing review is simply not enough to express how happy we were to work…read morewith The GreenHouse team. As first time home buyers, we had no idea where to start. We were also out of state which made everything that much more difficult. I'm a big Yelp user and relied on the hundreds of other 5-star reviews to look for a real estate company. I was so impressed with Craig and Jesse from the start. The initial call was SO organized, thorough, and personal. Not only did they give us a incredibly detailed step-by-step guide of the buyer's process, but also spent the time to learn more about us as people and what we were looking for in a home. I was surprised my how much time and energy was invested before even signing any contracts with them. After meeting with a few different teams, we chose the GreenHouse Group and 100% stand by our decision! Communication was consistently strong and we were always in contact with someone/the entire team along the way. We worked with Lori & Alexa who also helped us navigate documents and important deadlines. The GreenHouse Group has a well-designed platform to track the home buying process--making it easy to see deadlines and to-dos. We worked with Craig for our Kick-Off Tour. The GHG evaluation system for homes captured everything important to consider when purchasing a home and we learned so much about what to look for when checking out a home. Craig was straight-up, incredibly knowledgable, and clearly looking out for our best interest. He took us to see quite a number of homes that day and even had snacks and waters to keep us going! Unexpectedly, and uncommonly, we found a home from that weekend's trip we wanted to put an offer on. Craig jumped right in and guided us through the 'make-an-offer' process. He worked incredibly hard to negotiate on our behalf and was able to coordinate inspections and video walk-throughs for us when we couldn't be physically present. We were always promptly and transparently well-informed and advised. We never felt pressured or persuaded to make any decisions. Craig and the GHG team presented the facts and gave recommendations based on 20+ years of company experience--always looking out for our best interest. They were 'real' and weren't out to "sell us" on anything. Even during the rent-back process, the team coordinated with the other realtor to work with the sellers on transitions and key dates. It was super fun when Jesse and Lori were already at the house when we arrived to pick up our keys--what a thoughtful surprise! To top it off, they came with a whole container of new home goodies and essentials for us to use while we settled in (and even had some for our dog!) The care box was super useful, especially when we didn't have any of our kitchen items yet! Even after the sale and getting our keys, the GHG team is still there to answer your questions and help you out--including a list of recommended contractors and other services you might need when moving into a new home. I'm sure I am forgetting something here, but needless to say, we 10/10 recommend the GreenHouse Group to anyone looking to buy (or sell!) a home. We have no regrets and could not have asked for a better team. Thank you GHG!

Selling a home is stressful (especially for someone like me!) but Lori and Jesse made the whole…read moreprocess feel surprisingly easy. They were always available to answer questions, kept me informed every step of the way and made sure I knew what to expect throughout the process. Their advice on pricing and negotiations was spot on, and everything moved smoothly from getting my house ready to list all the way through closing. I also want to give a shoutout to their TC, Alexa. She kept everything organized behind the scenes, was always responsive and helpful, and made sure nothing slipped through the cracks. I have no doubt that her attention to detail played a big part in helping us close on time. Thank you to Lori, Alexa and Jesse in making this process feel smooth and manageable! If you're looking for a knowledgeable, responsive team to help sell your home, this is your team!

If they were working with other clients at the same time, we had no idea, because it truly felt like all our needs/questions were being addressed automatically. I don't think we ever waited longer than 5 minutes to hear back from them throughout the whole process. On top of this came professional advice and expert opinions, which we really appreciated.

We just closed on our first house last week, and I feel SO FORTUNATE to have found Maureen!! She is a mastermind of the mortgage lending process! I don't think I've ever met someone who is so hardworking with such high standards. Even better, Maureen upholds the same high standards for every one else involved in the lending process (escrow company, lenders, realtors, etc.) and she is constantly 2 steps ahead and prepared for anything, with a back up plan "just in case" to ensure everything goes through seamlessly. As a first time homebuyer initially unfamiliar with the process, I now know I threw a couple curve balls and Maureen didn't even bat an eye. As if all that wasn't enough, I also had no idea where to start when looking for a good realtor. Maureen suggested a few she has worked with in the past that she thought were really good, and she did not disappoint. I ended up choosing Melissa Tucci as my realtor, who was just as amazing as Maureen, and the two of them working together turned into an unstoppable powerhouse that could move mountains and get a deal done! If you're looking for a mortgage broker who will take care of you like family and go above and beyond, look no further. You will not be disappointed!

A Dream Realized in 18 Days - Thanks to Maureen Martin…read more Words can't fully express the gratitude I have for Maureen Martin of Homeplus Mortgage. From the moment we began our home-buying journey, Maureen showed herself to be an absolute powerhouse--a strong, focused businesswoman who brings unmatched professionalism, compassion, and commitment to everything she does. Maureen isn't just about numbers and paperwork--she's client-centric to her core. Her dedication, responsiveness, and fierce determination made us feel supported every step of the way. When I finally met her in person, I immediately felt her radiant energy and warmth. Her aura and spirit are something truly rare--she's one of the most special, genuine people I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. Thanks to her tireless efforts, we went from placing an offer to holding the keys to our new home in just 18 days. That kind of turnaround is almost unheard of, but Maureen made it happen. We are forever indebted to her for not just helping us close on a house, but for helping us secure our dream. If you're looking for a lender who is not only masterful at what she does but also deeply human in how she does it, look no further. Maureen Martin is a godsend.

First, he helped us find and buy our very first townhome, and six years later, he guided us to our dream primary residence. What makes Mike truly exceptional is not just his depth of knowledge in real estate, but also his expertise as a lender. He took the time to ensure we understood every aspect of our loan--not just the numbers, but the strategy behind choosing the right terms for our long-term goals. Beyond that, he helped us think outside the typical inspection process, connecting us with specialists so we had a complete and well-rounded understanding of the home before making such a big decision. Mike is remarkably patient, always available (even for early-morning calls or late-night questions), and his approach is refreshingly thorough and considerate. He doesn't just want to close a deal--he genuinely cares that his clients make smart, well-informed choices. If you're looking for someone who is as knowledgeable as they come and has an unmatched commitment to your best interests, Mike is as patient, caring, and knowledgeable as they come.

Some of the initial lenders would make the initial contact and then drop us off their radar and from the others we would simply not hear back from them. After some online searches I found Anita and her team. I submitted an inquiry and Anita quickly reached back out to me, ensured that her team would take care of us and let me know that I could call her or her team with any questions or concerns we might have. I immediately realized that her team would be the lender that would get us ready for our home search. We began the underwriting process and their dashboard made it extremely easy to upload and sign documents. Very user friendly! I had a ton of questions and would keep reaching out to Anita and she would gladly provide her recommendation and feedback. After about a week or so, I had reached out to her again and let her know that we needed a new agent and then she recommended us to an amazing realtor, Veronica Morin. We went on one day of showings (it was a Monday). Then, that same week on Wednesday, we submitted an offer on a house and by Thursday of the same week we were in escrow. I give credit to Anita's team which had us ready to close escrow in 17 days and also Veronica's constant communication with the seller's agent for getting us our home in such a quick and painless process. Special shout out to Anita's team who would constantly call for updates and reminders to help us stay on top of our escrow process! Really appreciated that I could call them for any updates and go the extra mile to ensure nothing got delayed with escrow. If we wouldn't have documents or something was missing, he would make the necessary calls and get the ball moving again. Truly appreciate Cardinal Financial for taking care of us the whole way through and not just seeing us as another job. My wife and I extremely recommend them for your home buying needs!

I am a worrier by nature and Anita and her team were able to walk me through ever step and answer ever question no matter the time or place!
