When my husband and I found the home of our dreams, we were worried about affording the down payment, managing a mortgage, and everything that goes with it. John understood our fears and concerns, and made sure we got the best mortgage, along with a grant to help with the downpayment! — I still don’t know how he did it! But we sure are grateful he did. First-time homebuyers can rest easy knowing John will help them get exactly what they need. - Jody S., Chicago, IL When Jim and I finally decided to make the “leap” and purchase a house, John helped us understand everything we needed to do. From explaining why a pre-approval was better than being pre-qualified (which was important since we were buying a house in a very hot area) to how we could use two loans to avoid private mortgage insurance, John was always making sure we got the best deal, and helped us understand how everything ‘worked.’ So it was no surprise that we chose to use John when we started looking at investment property, too. He helped us understand how we could use different types of loans for different investment needs, and how to make the most of our downpayment. He also endures countless emails and phone calls with question after question, including weekend calls when we’d run across a property we wanted to purchase and needed to know if we could afford it! John is a true partner in every sense of the word. Three years and many loans later, we’d never dream of going to anyone else.
