Dealing with MSA was easy, if fact it was a joy. So many people told me how painful and confusing the home buying process is for first-time homebuyers, our experience wash nothing like that....AND we closed in 15 days. Al's countless hours of conversations and emails in the months leading up to the deal gave us a confidence that we knew exactly what we were getting into, and he did a great job of keeping us posted about what we needed to do and when. Now that we're sitting in our own house I feel like I received a college education in home buying, this was not possible w/o MSA. Honestly, this process might even have been.....enjoyable.....thanks to them! Without reservation, I would recommend MSA to anyone and everyone. If other lenders functioned like them, there would be significantly less horror stories out there!!
Description of Work: My wife and I spent the better part of this year searching for our first home. Throughout the process, I worked with Al Petrilli at MSA to understand all the ins and out of the borrowing process. Al and I probably had dozens of phone and email conversations throughout the process - I can honestly say that we would not have ended up in the house we did without Al and MSA. By the time we found the "perfect" home, we knew exactly where we stood and what was needed. When the seller accepted our offer and asked to close ASAP, MSA pretty much made the impossible happen: we went from an accepted offer to a signed P&S in 4 days, then closed the deal in just 15, yes, FIFTEEN, days!! This is pretty much unheard of, according to both RE agents and everyone I've spoken with. I could not be happier with the service and education I received from MSA.

After experiencing extremely poor service and communication with another company my client and I were referred to Rick Scherer of MSA Mortgage in Framingham. We were told that Rick could potentially save our deal and as a lender had the ability to close quickly. We literally had less than 10 days to perform a miracle. My client was very hesitant and didn't believe it could be done but I was able to convince her to try. Rick and his assistant, Pamela, were fabulous! They communicated each and every step with both my buyer and myself and were incredibly detailed. I will give the buyer and the property management credit as well because without their diligence and timely turn around of all paperwork we would have hit a road block. Since the seller was going to be purchasing a home the same afternoon my buyer was due to close it saved two transactions. I would highly recommend Rick, Pamela and MSA Mortgage to anyone looking to purchase or refinance.
