He was helpful, present and extremely approachable. All the qualities you could want in a lender. Could not recommend more, whenever we had a question he was available and ready with an answer, regardless of time of day or topic. Even would provide me with research on market rates when I bugged him at 9:30PM! Look no further for your lender, I promise you won't regret it.
