Description of Work: I can't write enough great things about Drake and his team. They were very professional and were also there to answer all of my questions. As a first time home buyer all the information can sometimes be confusing. Drake and his team were there the entire way. I would definitely recommend giving them a call. The best part is that they were able to get us a grant from NHF that covered all our closing costs and that we don't have to pay back. Thanks Drake and your team for being so awesome!!

Description of Work: Drake and staff provided very responsive and supportive service on a condo refi. Very competitive rates/cost. Staff is always available by phone or email and returns inquiries immediately. Much better than the big banks. Would use him again in a heartbeat.

Drake and his team were a complete pleasure to work with. Since day one, they have been nothing but professional, punctual, & helpful and made the entire process very easy. Drake reached out to me after I put in a request through Angie's List and he was very helpful and made the process very clear to me from the start. The processor (Ryan) was also very professional and most importantly, very responsive & punctual. I would absolutely use Drake and his team again in the future.

Drake is awesome. From the beginning, the communication is unsurpassed. He and his team are with you all the way. I was able to easily do my refi all online; emailing scans of all needed documents. The only thing I did in person was the closing at the title company. It was fast and easy. I think we did in about 4 weeks! This is the second mortgage loan I have done with Drake in the last 2 years. He will always be my Mortgage guy! Thank you Drake and Team!

It has been a long time since I did a mortgage of any kind and so it is hard for me to compare. Things were handled well considering this was a more difficult loan.

The process was great and quick as it could be. Drake and his team were in constant communication. I always knew where I stood, what was needed and when we expected to close. Drake even credited a portion of the closing costs. Would I recommend Drake again? Of course. I actually did right after I began my refinance and my friend closed a couple weeks before I did. I held up the process a few times by being out of town and tied up with work. Like I said Drake and his team were as fast as I allowed them to be. There were near daily communications. I appreciated the diligence of Matt and Diane as well. The whole process was smooth and professional. Thank you Drake, Diane and Matt.

I shopped around and found that Drake had the best refinance "package". He sent me three estimates quickly while Bank of America sent me one estimate, with fees high enough that I did not believe Drake's initial estimates( I was wrong). Meanwhile Chase bank could not even offer a refinance option for me.After I decided to move forward with Drake he was in contact to make sure that all the paperwork was filled out and I received an email update every time my refinance moved forward to the next step or more information was needed. There is still an annoying amount of paperwork, but most of this was done online and was smoothly and speedily processed.He knew what was happening every step of the way and was able to estimate time well and avoid possible delays. I highly recommend Drake, and have already done so to co-workers and neighbors.
Description of Work: Refinance of a home mortgage.I started with an idea of what I wanted, Drake helped with information on what was possible and discussed options with me to discover exactly the way I wanted to go.End result was I picked a higher interest rate in order to drive down costs as much as possible, while keeping my monthly payments at a substantial reduction.No delays and everything went smoothly with below initial estimates.

The overall experience with Drake was great. Hes very patient, professional and kind. Thanks Drake cant wait to do buisness with you in the future!
Description of Work: Drake helped me secure a home loan. As a first time home buyer I had no clue what to expect. Drake seemed to be available 24/7 to answer all of my obnoxious questions. Drake also seems to take great pride in getting his clients the correct loan and the best rates. In my opinion it was like doing buisness with someone I had known for years. Drake Is a no B.S. individual and wont tell you what you want to hear just so he can get the buisness. Further more I recently contacted Drake to discuss a re-finance on my house. He answered all of my questions honestly and actually encouraged me to hold off given my current situation! AMAZING! Who turns down buisness?

My overall experience with Drake was fantastic, from the very beginning to the very end. Drake did everything he could to make sure we secured the best rates, often checking "by-the-minute" to let me know when the best time to lock-in the loan would be. Eventually, Drake secured me the best rate possible for my FHA loan, and I've now been living in my home for over three years and I'm still happy as can be with the whole process!!
Description of Work: Drake had the utmost professionalism when it came to catering to my needs for my home loan. As a first time buyer, Drake made sure I was getting the correct type of loan that met my needs, and he always made sure I was comfortable and understood all the legal jargon that was often confusing. At the signing date, Drake went out of his way to re-arrange his busy schedule to accommodate the day and time I was able to meet and finalize my loan. This above and beyond kind of service is why I will defintely use Drake again should I need another loan.

Drake was extremely helpful in the process of acquiring our home loan. Needless to say this can be very difficult. He was knowledgeable with the markets and their fluctuations, and he simplified the application process. He was able to lock us in with a great interest rate and closed our loan in a timely fashion. We appreciated his honesty and professionalism.

Perfect service! I have used Drake over a dozen times and he pays attention to detail, is well organized and very good with people. All of my clients have loved using him and have referred him to their friends and family's.
Description of Work: As a Real estate agent, I expect top level service and quality. Drake provided both. He is very professional, and does a great job for my clients. I am very particular who I send my clients to, I have no worries and I know the deal will get done when I use Drake. I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home or re-finance their existing home.
