My BEST LENDERS list

Below is a list of my favorite mortgage lenders. All of them do a great job and have competitive rates. Don't get saddled with hidden costs, inexperienced processors and delayed closings. Avoid the headaches of last-minute requests for "more information" and running back and forth. Choose a lender who will get the job done right!

Unlike many real estate web sites, these lenders have not paid an advertising fee to be listed here ... and they never will. In order to be listed in my BEST LENDERS list, a mortgage lender must have been recommended to me by other real estate professionals and must have demonstrated his or her professionalism, knowledge and experience in mortgage lending through a positive real estate experience with me, my clients or customers.
