Mike is an exceptional mortgage broker who goes above and beyond for his clients. Throughout my home buying journey, Mike demonstrated unwavering professionalism, expertise, and genuine care.
What sets Mike apart is his commitment to client education and communication. He took the time to thoroughly explain each step of the mortgage process, ensuring I felt informed and confident in my decisions. Mike's proactive approach meant I was always up-to-date on any changes or developments, eliminating any surprises along the way.
Perhaps most importantly, Mike consistently put my best interests first. His guidance was always aimed at finding the most suitable mortgage solution for my unique situation, rather than pushing for a quick close. Even after finalizing the mortgage, Mike has continued to be a valuable resource, showcasing his dedication to long-term client relationships.
Mike's blend of financial acumen and personable nature makes him not just an outstanding professional, but also a pleasure to work with. For anyone seeking a mortgage broker who combines expertise with genuine care, I wholeheartedly recommend Mike. He truly transforms what can be a stressful process into a smooth and educational experience.

Mike & Lindsay are true professionals. I presented them with a situation where we needed to close in 25 days. Everything worked like clockwork and we closed on time. Between the two of them, they flawlessly got the deal done. Excellent communication, prompt follow up and full transparency is how they operate. This deal would have never been done had I gone direct to a bank. Thank you for helping us secure our dream home!

I spoke to Mike and he seemed very confident about his job and his experience. At the beginning I did not know what to do and he kindly helped me. He informed me of all the options and he made me feel comfortable. Mike is a very nice person and he picks up every single time. If he is not available, he will call you back within 5 minutes. He is definitely a reliable, professional and kind person. His office includes Claudia who worked with me at the end very patiently and clearly. She was very polite and also returned my calls very quickly. Their system of uploading documents is fast. Thanks to the whole team, you are the "bestest"!

Once again, Mike went above and beyond to get the job done. It was a grind for all parties involved, yet Mike was there at every turn with sound advice or a solid idea.

There is a reason I sought him out for this property purchase. He looks out for me and sees each project through. He's my guy.

Mike was quick to reply for my real estate loan needs. He obtained a competitive loan rate for me in a short amount of time. He and Lindsey guided me through the process which seems to get more intricate every time I obtain a real estate loan. I’d use his services again and will recommend him to my friends.
