Duane was always available to help answer any questions we had and absolutely secured the best rate possible. He was dedicated to taking great care of us. When many others said they could, Duane was quick to deliver the results he said he would. Professional, approachable, and honest. Thank you, Sean and AnaPosted on Google Josh OliverTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Duane went above and beyond throughout my mortgage refinance. I shopped around multiple times, and every single time he was able to offer a better deal than the others. He saved my family a significant amount on our monthly payment, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Highly recommend working with him.Posted on Google Taylor BloomfieldTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Duane truly is the mortgage maestro! He got us an AMAZING interest rate, one that other brokers told me was nearly impossible. He helped us cut out unnecessary costs, offering his expertise every step of the way. Im not sure if Duane ever sleeps, based off of how quickly he responds at all times of the day, I would guess he does not. As he once told my husband and I, he lives and breathes mortgages. We closed on our home in just under 4 weeks! FOUR! Tell your family and friends, Duane is your guy.Posted on Google Nicolas Morales FonsecaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Duane provided excellent service from start to finish. He was always responsive, knowledgeable, and took the time to clearly explain every step of the process. His professionalism and attention to detail made everything smooth and stress-free. Most importantly, he was able to find a great mortgage deal that fit my needs perfectly. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated loan officer.Posted on Google Lacey ConnerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Duane is the lender you want when the stakes are high. This was my second home purchase with him, and it truly was a once-in-a-lifetime deal layered with stress, timelines, and the anxiety that comes with building. Duane was steady, patient, and incredibly thorough. He communicated constantly, anticipated issues before they became problems, and made me feel supported and confident through every decision. His guidance turned a stressful process into a successful closing I’m deeply grateful for. I wouldn’t trust anyone else.Posted on Google Tammy BrownTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Look no further!!! You will be so happy that you found Duane!! My husband is a small business owner and wasn't able to qualify for a traditional loan due to itemizing business expenses and his adjusted gross income. I was researching for bank statement loans in Virginia and was lucky enough to have found Duane!! He has been a miracle worker since day 1. I reached out to him and explained the situation. He told me that if he couldn't get my husband approved than no one can! He's very knowledgeable and keeps you in the loop about everything. He never sleeps, he's up all day and night working! Not only did he get the approval but at a very good interest rate!! Duane will forever be my friend and go to for any real estate loans!! Don't think twice about it, just make the call and thank me later!!!Posted on Google James ImesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working with Duane was a positive experience. He was professional, responsive, and made each step of the process easy to understand.
