Customer Reviews
Bob has been such a blessing to us over the years. He helped us secure our first mortgage when we were on a very limited budget and then again helped us secure our dream home while being self-employed. We always recommend Bob and have truly felt like we are in the best hands with him. Amanda S
Bob is absolutely fantastic to work with while going through the process of buying/refinancing a home. We have worked with him for all of our mortgage needs and will continue to do so for any further needs that arise. In a world where it feels like everyone is out to get you, it is extremely refreshing to work with honest, trustworthy, and compassionate people. There simply aren’t enough stars to express how much we have 1 enjoyed working with him! Thanks for the exceptional service! Greg N
Well, let me just start out by saying that Bob is awesome and I soooo appreciate all of his help, guidance and kindness through this entire process! Bobs has proven that there are still wonderful, helpful and caring people in the world who go the extra mile to help others! Sometimes people don’t realize the impact they have on the people they serve, and when it comes down to it, it may seem insignificant when you’re doing it. Bob turned a very difficult, stressful, and emotional thing into something that turned out so positive and wonderful for my family!! I’m so thankful I had the pleasure and honor to work with him! Thank you 100 times over, you are fantastic! Emily B
