I appreciate the rapid responses and how quickly we were able to close. Jim always made sure that if he could not answer my phone call, he called me back ASAP. The process was easy and made me feel more confident than I ever thought I would feel purchasing a home by myself.
Dear James, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for all your efforts and dedication. Despite the challenges and my location in another state, you managed to secure an ideal loan for me. The seller's documents were problematic, causing delays of over a month, but you persistently worked with the bank to resolve the issues. Thanks to your hard work, everything went smoothly, and I'm now a homeowner. Thank you so much
The process was seamless and I was very pleased about the experiance.
