Dean was extremely helpful through this process. He had the patience to teach us everything we didn’t know about home buying and getting a loan. He was mostly responsive. Hard working (even spent Saturday night putting together docs for us to meet deadlines). His online portal was simple, easy and a great way to have documents organized online in one place (lots of documents). Thank you for your help, we love the house.

It was a pleasure working with Dean on our home refinance. His response to our questions along the way was prompt and helpful. We got a great rate and are very happy that we chose to refinance with Dean.

Dean was wonderful during the entire process of obtaining my mortgage. We spoke before I even completed any paperwork to get an idea of how I stand in relation to obtaining a mortgage, all the way through congratulating me on closing on my new condo. He has a super team who take you through the different stages and the turn around time was very quick. I would definitely recommend working with Dean and his team for your mortgage needs. I felt supported throughout the process and that is really important for this type of next step in your life.

Dean was my go to “mortgage guy” for over a year of my on again off again home search! As a first time home buyer I often had tons of questions, Dean was always available and willing to walk me through every scenario I ran by him. When I found the home of my dreams Dean made it an easy process to get a preapproval letter in my hands asap. When on the drive home from the house I knew I wanted to raise my offer and would need an updated letter, Dean called me back immediately with his usual “no problem, consider it done” attitude.
When working on my rate, Dean helped me search for the best programs and locked in a rate that I was incredibly happy with!
Dean and his entire team at GRA made the entire process quick and enjoyable! When I say quick - I mean pulling off a 30 day close in arguably one of the busiest times the housing market has seen in years. I can’t thank them enough, but I can highly recommend Dean for all your mortgage related needs!
Thanks again Dean!

Dean was attentive and understanding throughout every step of the mortgage process. He helped us understand everything we needed to know about first time home ownership and the closing process, which is quite lengthy, and full of unfamiliar information and real estate jargon. We asked many questions and Dean was always available by phone or email to lend his expertise. I would recommend Dean to any home buyer, novice or experienced, as he is a pleasure to work with.

From the get go, Team Scaduto was instrumental in getting us qualified along with the usage of VA Loan including every financial aspect involved with it. When the rates changed due to some hiccups, he dug his heels in and got us a lower rate. Very informative and attentive to our financial needs. ANY military family (whatever your Vet status) looking to purchase a home in the Upper NJ A/O, I would highly recommend using his services.

At first Dean was just another person used to quote me on my mortgage. He quickly proved to me that he was more than that. He picked up his phone on his vacation.
This man cares! He answered every questioned I had in a timely manner and got me to the finish line. I will ALWAYS recommend this man and his team to my friends because of this. Thank you!

I went to my bank, as most people do and I was a bit discouraged. This was my first home I wanted everything to go well. Dean was referred to me and that was the beginning of a smooth sailing process. I am now a new home owner. Thank you Dean Scaduto.

From start to finish and all throughout the loan process Dean and his team were always attentive, responsive and accurate. When we first met, Dean explained the whole process and how things would work... And it went EXACTLY as he said. His online document submission and signing process were easy to use and made a lot of things hassle free. During the process Dean simply called on a regular basis to see how things were going and if I had any questions... that business approach is rare these days. Since this is not my first mortgage experience I can safely say working with Dean was a refreshing and trouble free experience. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing a mortgage!!

Dean and his team were great and made the mortgage process as simple as can be. He is very knowledgeable and always has time to answer any questions. I recommend Guaranteed Rate Affinity to anyone who is looking to secure a mortgage and have it be as painless as possible.

Dean and his team helped me every step of the way and I ask a TON of questions. They were able to handle everyone with ease and in a timely matter. I have already given his info out to a couple people and when it comes time to buying another place, I am going directly to Dean. Added bonus was him bringing cannolis to the closing! Word of advice though, don't go to the closing looking like a mess, pictures will be taken! Overall 10/10 will use again.

I want to start off by stating how professional and organized Dean is. Never once during our whole home purchase were any errors made or any confusion on our deal. Dean was very prompt getting back to me with any questions or concerns I may have had. Not to mention he was able to get us a 3.99%, 30 year fixed rate. He treated us with respect and professionalism. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking a mortgage. Overall not only is Dean excellent at his profession but he is amazing good hearted person.
