No complaints, as I consider myself fortunate to have been a homeowner. And my experience seems to show that it is true, homeownership is the main investment that most ordinary people are able to make in their lifetime. I'm lucky in that regard.
Regarding Kate Mintz as a Loan Officer, I was surprised to find her to be the the best mortgage officer I have dealt with in all these years. Perhaps I was I surprised in this digital online age because of my lowered expectations. As they say, I'm definitely old school. How can you sign up for a serious financial obligation without ever meeting the loan officer? Well, the answer is, talk to Kate.
IMHO, Kate's number one attribute is patience. Both online and by phone, she carefully and patiently addressed all questions, explaining every possible detail. Kate is obviously very knowledgeable, as she should be, and never faltered or hesitated in providing rapid and complete information on the most inane bits of process, steps, or hurdles as the loan application bumped it's way along. She has a confident and relaxed approach, and worked diligently to assure I was informed and satisfied.
I highly recommend Kate Mintz.
