Keith was excellent to work with throughout my home purchase. He always answered when I called and took the time to explain everything clearly and in detail, which made the entire process much less stressful. Even after closing, he has continued to be helpful by answering general questions and offering advice as a new homeowner. He also did a great job coordinating the home insurance process and making sure I had everything I needed for closing day. I really appreciate his professionalism, responsiveness, and support, and I’m excited to work with Keith again for future property purchases.

Thomas Sullivan was absolutely outstanding throughout our mortgage process. He was incredibly responsive, always answering our questions in a timely and thorough manner, and consistently went above and beyond to make sure we felt confident every step of the way. As first-time homebuyers, the process could have easily felt overwhelming, but Thomas made everything smooth, straightforward, and easy to understand. He took the time to explain every detail and ensured we were comfortable with each decision. We truly appreciate all of his hard work and dedication, and we have complete trust in him. We would highly recommend Thomas to anyone, especially first-time buyers, looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and genuinely supportive mortgage professional.

This is our second time working with Tom. He worked with us on our original mortgage when we bought our house. When rates dropped he was on top of it and got in contact with us to refinance, saving us a ton of money. Would recommend Tom to anyone for their mortgage needs!

Amazing experience. Keith hands down was the best advisor and broker we ever dealt with. His timely responses even into the night time made our buying process so smooth. He was very organized and had the appropriate steps that we needed to take all laid out. I could not recommend Keith enough to anyone purchasing a home. He was honest, transparent, and trustworthy. Keith offered to reach out to us once a year and have a mortgage review. Additionally, he told us to never hesitate to reach out if we have questions down the line . Thank you so much Keith!!

Going through the home-buying process for the first time, not knowing how things worked or what to expect, the NOVUS Team made everything seamless and enjoyable. I appreciate the clear communication throughout. Having an experienced and highly competent team behind me set my mind at ease. All communication was clear and professional, and I never sensed any unease or burden when asking many questions, both simple and complicated. Even after closing, the team still encouraged me to ask any questions as I got settled into my first home. Ryndie was amazing and kind — I got to see all the places I requested, and she tackled every issue and question with ease and competence. Thank you, Team NOVUS!!

Kayla was absolutely wonderful to work with throughout our home‑buying process. As first‑time buyers, my husband and I had countless questions, and she never once made us feel silly for asking. She was incredibly responsive, explained everything in a way we could easily understand, and guided us through each step with patience and clarity. Beyond the mortgage details, Kayla supported us through the emotions and fears that come with buying a home. She helped calm our anxiety, reassured us when things felt overwhelming, and made the entire experience feel manageable. We always felt we were in the best hands and confident that she secured the best deal for our situation. We’re so grateful for her expertise, kindness, and dedication. Highly recommend Kayla to any buyers looking for someone who truly cares.
