Hi would like to recommend Jeff Hanks, he did a very good job as he was my loan officer when I was in the process of buying my home.

From the outset, I found Jeff to be straightforward and transparent with me. He made it clear he wanted my business, but was very upfront in setting my expectations. As first-time buyer, I also had a ton of questions. Jeff very punctual, diligent and thorough in answering my questions. He was very professional, courteous and very knowledgeable about the loan process, and led me through a very smooth loan approval process. I give Jeff's performance a five-star rating out of five and would gladly recommend him for anyone who is looking for a very effective, professional loan officer.

My wife and I worked with Jeff buying our first home, he was referred to us by a relative. Jeff did a fantastic job helping us understand every part of the process and answered all of our questions regardless of the topic or part of the process we were in. There was a tough patch where some miscommunication caused our closing date to move around, but Jeff exceeded our expectations and made us feel extremely comfortable with what was going on. To add onto that, we felt listened too and when we expressed concerns about how the numbers would turn out, he did everything he could to give us honest and professional answers. If there was an option for 6 stars I would give it.

I can safely recommend Jeff to anyone. He is knowledgeable, professional, personable, and capable. The only thing that would make Jeff better is if he actually paid for your loan payments himself, but that shortcoming aside -- this man is magnificent.

Before getting referred to Jeff, I had been dealing with a large banking corporation. They were slow and would never return calls or emails. Jeff is just the opposite. He is very attentive and helpful and made the process efficient and painless. I would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking a home loan.

Jeff is seriously one of the best and most thorough Loan Officers I have ever worked with. He did our first loan when we bought our home almost 3 years ago.
He is with a new agency now and we used him to refinance our home. It was a wonderful experience. He is very good, thoughtful, communicates effectively and lead us through the refinance process. I asked a lot of questions too. He really knows the Mortgage market. Everything was done electronically (paper work) and at closing, the title person even came to our home. I strongly recommend you use him. Kudos to you Jeff. You rock !!!

After starting a mortgage process with one of the larger banks and because of a mistake by them in the calculations, my mortgage is not going to happen on time. I then came across Jeff Hanks whom immediately found the problem and took control of my mortgage and came through within the timeframe that was needed. I would recommend him to everybody that I know needs a mortgage, very fast and efficient

Jeff was amazing from start to finish! From getting an emergency pre-approval letter on a Saturday afternoon to put in an offer on my home to constantly updating me on the process as this is my first home and I wasn't in the state. I highly recommend working with Jeff! He is way better than working with a large bank for a home loan and is very knowledgeable and shares that knowledge. I will work with Jeff and his team again! Thank you Jeff and Jenny!

Jeff was a huge help in getting our refinance done. He made us feel like we were his most important clients. I personally witnessed him treating his other clients the same.
Jeff had our best interests in mind from day one and he took the time to answer all of our questions. He explained in detail the refinance process every step of the way.
I feel like we got the best possible outcome for our current financial needs and we owe that to Jeff.
He’s as honest as they come and I recommend Jeff to all who are considering a refinance or purchase!

I have held off in the past from refinancing my mortgage because I didn't want to go through the hassle of it all. I was blown away with how simple and smooth the process was with Jeff and his team. I was able to sign most the documents just from my phone or computer. The few that I had to print out, I could easily take a picture and upload it to their system. Jeff and his team were great with communication. I was always in the loop and clearly knew where we were at in the process and what the next steps were. On top of that, we got a great rate and the fees were lower than I thought they would be. Jeff was always up to date with the market and knew when to pull the trigger, which is difficult to do at anytime, let alone during the Covid-19 Pandemic.

Jeff Hanks was wonderful to work with, and made the financially stressful aspect of purchasing my first home very simple and easy. From our first encounter Jeff was friendly, and receptive to all questions and helped explain everything to me so I knew exactly what was going on. I would highly recommend Jeff to anyone I know looking to purchase a home, and plan on providing his information to everyone I personally know going into the market. Thank you so much Jeff! I love my new home.

My past experience in refinancing homes has alway been such a time consuming event and seemingly endless. Because of this I was hesitant in doing it again, but as I started to work with Jeff and his team I quickly realized that this was going to be different. Jeff and his team were very helpful, professional, had amazing resources to work with and turned around my loan for my home very quickly. I am so impressed with the outcome. I urge anybody who is considering refinancing their home to do so with Jeff. You will not be disappointed and happy you decided to work with such a great team.
Thanks Jeff, you will be referred to my friends, family and neighbors.
