Melissa was referred to us when we were in a panic to secure money for a closing on an income property. Melissa could have given advice that would have profited herself but instead gave us the advice that was in our best interest. Melissa is so professional, honest and caring. I was overwhelmed and grateful for her advice (which was spot on) and availability when we needed her and just out of the goodness of her heart. Melissa will be our go to for anything real estate in the future and I hope others have the pleasure we did to meet her.

Mellisa is hands down the best mortgage agent ever!! My boyfriend and I recently bought our first home and were new to this whole process and she made it so easy on us. Mellisa was there every step of the way, from answering our phone calls after hours and on weekends to having quick turn arounds getting everything done. She was so patient with us and answered all of our questions during the whole process and for the first time ever i felt like I was well taken care of, she even contacted our realtor directly when she needed information and had a smooth pass over to our lawyer we couldn’t of asked for better service from an agent. Thank you for such excellent service!!
