I just closed on my first home, and I’m so happy I decided to work with New Dwelling Morgage. A huge shoutout to Amanda who helped me along this process and answered all my questions and explained every part of the home buying process so clearly. New Dwelling Morgage made my experience as a first time home buyer super smooth and I would highly recommend them to my friends and family.

Just bought my first home. Working with Steve made the process a lot easier and less painful then I thought it would be. He was great and made sure I understood everything. That was really helpful since this was all new to me. He was always available when and if I needed him and provided all the information you can need and in a way that was easy to understand. Would highly recommend to new home owners.

My sister and I just got a home together and our experience with New Dwelling was incredible from start to finish!! We are first time home buyers and were very anxious and overwhelmed about the process, but once we started working Stephen and Gaby our minds were at ease! Stephen always ensured that we fully understood the information we were given each step of the way and made us feel so comfortable. The video walk throughs are the best- they spell everything out and make it so clear and easier to understand. Gaby kept us updated as well and was always there to help address our questions and concerns.

This review is long overdue but want to ensure people know how great of an experience this was, buying a house with Frank. He was extremely knowledgeable in the mortgage process and answered all of my questions, reassuring me when I was anxious in closing. 3 years later I still reflect on how great it was, and he still sends me house anniversary gifts each year. I highly recommend using Frank and his firm for a mortgage. Thank you!

I was blessed to have had New Dwelling recommended to me by a friend. From the moment I first spoke with Frank Collo I knew I was in good hands. Not only does he have a stellar personality but he is extremely knowledgeable and thorough. Me and Frank got really close from the amount of time we talked over the phone. Frank is one of The best. With Frank and New Dwelling you get the feeling that you are amongst friends or even family. The great care with which he and the rest of the staff guided me through the process of buying my first home was truly impressive. At the times when I was confused during the process since the rates were higher than the usual, Frank would encourage me with incredible kindness and clarify things with patience and a smile. Frank, Gaby and the rest of the team are so amazing. Me and my wife are so blessed thar we had this great opportunity with them.

Frank, Steve, and Gaby will forever have our gratitude for the attentiveness, diligence, and integrity with which they handled securing a mortgage for our first home. They helped us to provide a beautiful new life for our family, and did so with expert guidance and a demeanor that felt both professional and like family. Most importantly they provided honest advice, walked us through each and every step, and carefully ensured that our application requirements were fulfilled quickly and thoroughly. Our realtor, attorney and paralegal, and even the settlement agent were so impressed with New Mortgage that they are eager to work with them again. Truly special people who created a special experience.

My experience with Amanda Elsayed was nothing short of AMAZING! She is incredibly professional, friendly and knowledgeable. Whenever my husband and I had a question she responded within 30 mins with an answer. She continuously put our mind at ease and thoroughly explained each step in the Mortgage process. We have worked with other mortgage companies in the past and have never experienced the kind, respectful and informative treatment Amanda provided to us. Being a nurse and a teacher we are not very knowledgeable when it comes to mortgages but now we feel like pros because everything was explained to us step by step. She even sent us short videos to watch explaining each step in detail so we can go back and watch it! I would HIGHLY recommend New Dwelling Mortgage!Also, Gabby and Frank are also part of the team and they were very kind and generous with knowledge and patience as well!!what an incredible, seamless experience getting our mortgage as been!THANK YOU NEW DWELLING MORTGAGE!

We are so impressed with New Dwelling Mortgage! My mom and I just finished refinancing a loan that we had with another company. From beginning to the end, we were treated with the utmost respect and care! Everyone from Frank to Gaby to the entire team was so helpful and knowledgeable. Communication on all parties was fast, efficient and clear. Anytime we were anxious or confused, someone was there to answer and validate our feelings. We loved the videos that Frank sent in between to keep us informed EVERY step of the way. We also loved the portal and how it allowed us to upload, view and save documents for easy access for everyone involved. We are so appreciative to the ENTIRE team of people who supported us during this time. The whole process was a pleasure. We would 100% recommend New Dwelling to family and friends. We can't say thank you enough. In the future, we will continue to work with them!!

Barbara Brown

I have to start off by saying Frank Collo and his team are the best! This mortgage process is very overwhelming and Frank made it less stressful. The encouragement and guidance is superior. Frank has a way with words that some how makes you understand when you really didn’t. He wasn’t pestered with the many questions that I had and was very patient and never annoyed with me. I was very nervous and Frank with his soothing voice let me know what would work and what wouldn’t work and told me what I needed to do to make it work. He advised me on money management that allowed me to obtain a mortgage that I thought would never happen. Frank has a step by step video in which he explains the process and it is fantastic. In the end I am a proud owner of a beautiful house that I thought would never happen and I will be able to keep it with the education and guidance that I obtained from Mr Frank Collo. If you’re searching for a new home please contact New Dwelling Mortgage the mortgage professional extraordinaire. When it’s time to refinance I know who to call Frank Collo!! P.S. shout out to gaby when I didn’t get Frank I got Gaby and she also was outstanding!!!

Frank is the man! He took time out of his day to help us navigate this whole mortgage process. Due to my timing and situation I wasn't able to close the deal with Frank.

The real estate market is intense and there is red tape all over everything! However, Frank and his team made sure we were ready for each phase of the home buying process.

I always felt seen and heard. Most importantly, we felt we could trust New Dwelling with very sensitive information.Take it from me who works as a customer service specialist, that New Dwelling exceeded my expectations and we are extremely satisfied and delighted with our experience.Thank YOU Frank and Suzy for all of your hard work.

This is our second time working with Frank Collo. He helped us buy our first home and we could not have done it without him. He was on top of every detail, answering all our questions, ( and we had many,) and made us feel at ease through the whole process. This time around he helped us with the refinance, and once again he treated us like family and walked us through everything. I recommend him to anyone who is in need of his help. New dwelling mortgage is a company that cares about their clients! Thank you to Frank, Angela and Gaby! You guys ROCK!!! ???

I shopped around for a refinance, and Frank really worked with me. He explained every little detail of my loan, he didn’t try and sell me any points, no games no headache. Frank even was able to lower my rate from the original estimate. I needed to do a cash out refinance thinking it would take around 60-70 days on a condo ( I was told this by HSBC, Wells Fargo, and loan depot) Frank had me closed in LESS THAN 3 WEEKS!!!! Everything is done online, the closing was in person with a lawyer that was honest, his name was Mario. I had a lot of help from Gaby and Angela who updated me a few times a week and answered any question I had via phone or email within minutes. These people are in your corner and are fighting for you. My initial mortgage 6 years ago was a nightmare and this new process was a dream…. Go ahead. Shop around, get rates, be smart but ultimately let new dwelling know what quotes you were offered and Frank will work with you and have you closed without any effort, without a headache, and in no time. I have 0 regrets with using this company and will send anyone his way looking for a mortgage or refi. God bless Frank and his team. It’s hard finding honest people in this field. So glad I found this company on Google.

Always a pleasure working with Frank and his team. They make everything easy to understand, are always quick to reply and give you the feeling that you truly have a team behind you working hard to get you the best rates and closing as fast as possible. Used them for my first mortgage and again with my refinance and will continue to use them in the future for any of my mortgage needs. 10/10.

I am very thankful for Frank Collo and New Dwelling Mortgage. I came to them as I was running out time and was about to be forced into a mortgage with terms that I didn't like and had already taken almost 3 months to process. I stumbled upon New Dwelling Mortgage as one of the brokers recommended on United Wholesale Mortgage website.Frank was very good from the beginning. He understood my situation and was straightforward with what I can expect from them. I was nervous and very cautious from the beginning since I was in a hurry but I didn't want to make a mistake. What he told me sounded too good to be true but it was what I needed so I decided to give it a try. On every step of the process they did what they said they would so my level of confidence was building and I felt more reassured. Frank and his team was responsive and very informative and clear in every interaction I had with them.They have a very efficient system. I received my commitment letter on the same day my application was submitted to the underwriting! It took them only 12 business days (18 calendar days) from the time my application was submitted to underwritting to get clear to close! I couldn't believe how fast it was. I always thought processing time of less than 30 days is impossible. Frank actually kept his word and get the job done. They are amazing fast and I got a better deal than the other mortgage. I was very impressed by their speed. I tell everybody I know about them. The professionalism of Frank and his team makes it even better. I will be coming back to New Dwelling Morgage for my future mortgage and refinance for sure. Thanks Frank for all your help!

This is the 2nd time we have used New Dwelling Mortgage. When we initially purchased our condo, we not only received a good deal but we closed in 6 weeks! We were very impressed with Frank and his Team. We recently decided to refinance with the great mortgage rates currently available. Again, we not only received an excellent rate but when we hit a snag Frank did everything possible to make it happen. His efficiency, professionalism, quick response time, and most important of all his honesty and integrity are not to be touched! We felt like family and knew he was doing everything possible to give us a great deal. We highly recommend New Dwelling Mortgage, they do not disappoint!

Karla Babb

02:24 29 Jul 21

I cannot say enough about Frank and his team! The mortgage process can be a bit overwhelming but they made it so simple! They’re extremely responsive and I loved the tech platforms they used. The platform only required a couple documents at a time, and made it super clear as to what was needed. I also liked if I had a question I was able to text the loan processor for a quicker response. And best of all they were able to close our loan fast! We will definitely be using New Dwelling Mortgage if we move or refinance and we’d recommend Frank to friends and family!

Frank and his team made the home buying process for this new home owner seamless from start to finish. Frank was so responsive any time of the day when I would email a question, and even took his time on a random Monday after 5 to talk numbers with me when I excitedly had to have the house I just went to visit (I’m typing this from that home now) I was anxious every step of the way during this roller coaster of a market, but with Frank’s help I knew exactly what to expect, I was well informed, and he got me to the closing table!! Frank’s guidance, calming demeanor, and responsiveness made this an amazing experience. I would recommend Frank and his team at New Dwellings mortgage to anyone I know without hesitation!!

Wayne Quashie

I was referred to Frank by a colleague who had a successful refinancing of her home. I was extremely impressed with his professionalism, responsiveness to my questions and his office procedures. Everything was electronic and I really liked that. His co-worker, Angela, also represented consistent service. My whole refinancing experience from beginning to closing was stress free. Thank you Frank and Angela. You are already working with someone I referred to you. Expect more referrals in the future.

New Dwelling Mortgage is PHENOMENAL! I worked with Frank and he really went above and beyond. As a first-time home buyer, he explained the process to me, patiently answered all of my (many) questions, ensured that I had a full understanding of all that was taking place, and worked to get me the best rates possible. I could not have asked for a better guide through this process.I would recommend New Dwelling Mortgage through and through! So very happy with the service they've provided!

I’ve worked with Frank and his team on two different occasions and they’ve been experts at explaining every detail throughout the process. Filing out paperwork was seamless and efficient.

Absolutely the best mortgage broker!! I have worked with Frank in the past and then decided to use him for my own home purchase. He is very thorough and informative. Extremely honest, and always willing to answer any questions we had. We will definitely use him when we refinance and will continue to refer him!

After struggling for over 6 months with TD bank to refinance a loan I already had with them, a friend recommend I try New Dwelling. It was refreshingly the opposite experience i had with any big lender. Everyone I worked with was super friendly and always responsive. They were able to work around small issues (that TD used to cancel my loan after charging a fee) and did it relatively quickly and painlessly. My only regret is not using them 6 months earlier.

Frank and his team are the best! As a Realtor, when refinancing my own home, there was no question whose hands I would put myself in! New Dwelling Mortgage is a company built on honesty, principles, and genuine care for their clients needs. Answers to all my questions, responsiveness and customer care are all outstanding! If you are looking to refinance, or to purchase a home, this is where you can place your confidence and trust! Thank you Frank for helping us save money and putting us in a financial position to be able to be a blessing to our family and others! May everything your hands touch, prosper!

I’m clueless when it comes to business and navigating the real estate market, but I got Frank and its been all we needed. This is my 3rd time using Frank since 2015, and he has been a true blessing for us. The step by step approach, the access, the professional manner in which conducts himself puts him above the rest. Great at what he does, and an even a better person.-David

With interest rates being so low, I once again reached out to New Dwelling Mortgage to refinance a second home. They closed my loan in record time and really made the process so simple. This is my fourth time working with Frank and his team and all I can do is to continue to recommend New Dwelling.This is the third time I have done business with New Dwelling and once again the experience was excellent. I cannot add anything except to say give these folks your mortgage business.In a word, working with New Dwelling Mortgage was AMAZING! Frank and his team are the best! The process was so efficient and the turn around from application to closing was so quick. Having worked with other lenders in the past, I could say that the process had been extremely painful and lengthy, working with Frank and his team makes it so simple. New Dwelling Mortgage is highly recommended for all your home financing needs, do not go anywhere else.

Thank you Frank for my going above and beyond in helping me secure an investment loan with a very low rate compared to other lenders. Buying an investment property first time can be nerve wrecking, but you have kept me in the loop through out the process with your customized videos. There were no surprises or extra fees at the end of the process. If I had to do it all over again, I will definitely use New Dwelling Mortgage. Again, thank you for all your help to you and your team.Esther S.

Frank was referred to us by my sister in law. We had already heard great things, but we soon got to see first hand how incredibly great Frank and his team at New Dwelling Mortgage are. Frank was extremely swift and helpful with my wife and I in purchasing our first home. He was extremely detailed and this was especially important to us since we were first time home buyers. He took the time to send us detailed videos about the whole process and he was able to get us an incredibly low rate! THANK YOU FRANK & YOUR GREAT TEAM! :)

I have worked with Frank for many years both personally and professionally. He did my purchase and just completed my refinance (both seamlessly with the best rates available). Working in real estate I deal with a lot of lenders, but Frank is one of a kind. He is honest, truly cares for his clients, and the service is unparalleled. You would be doing yourself a disservice to use anyone other than New Dwelling Mortgage!

When looking for a refinance months ago I was referred to Frank @ New Dwelling Mortgage. He is was responsive from the get and rather than push me to a loan he educated me and aimed for the right timing. When the time was right we reconnected and he landed us a great and closed quickly thereafter. Each line of communication was met with remote education with videos explaining every step and line item in the loan process. No surprises and not catch. Everything went through as anticipated. His team works hard and excel in all they do. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! If you are just inquiring or ready to go New Dwelling Mortgage is the ideal path towards homeownership or refinancing.Blessed.

My husband and I recently had the wonderful opportunity of working with Frank and all his staff. What started out as a home purchase Frank took the extra time to do some research and i wont bore you with details but he found out we could actually do a cheaper quicker refinance instead ( which he didn't have to do) Everyone on the staff was extremely responsive and helpful. I must have drove Frank crazy with the hundreds of questions but not once did he not respond no matter the time or day. I would highly recommend frank and his team to anyone in the market for a home purchase or refinance. Frank really made us feel like family :)

Frank and his team at new dwelling mortgage helped us with refinancing during covid19 quarantine. The entire process was effortless on our part, with frank handling every last detail. He answered all of our emails and phone calls in a timely manner; we always felt we knew what stage of the process we were in. His knowledge and expertise predicting this ever changing market, helped us lock in a low interest rate. They also send you videos to help guide you through all the documents and signing. We were very happy and fortunate Frank was referred to us by our lawyer. Thankfully he was still able to coordinate a successful closing. If you are looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and informative broker, Frank is it. I very rarely write reviews, but this company more than earned the 5 stars.

One thing to say, I don't write reviews very often however when you get A+ service, professionalism and true industry leading support you just have to take the time to do so.Frank took us down a very different path, the Refi one. How does it work, should I even do it, what are my gains? These are all questions I had, and Frank answered quickly and led me down the right path. We are now ahead of the game and feel confident and well educated in the system which so many are afraid to use. Franks team is truly amazing! We literally closed in roughly 2 to 3 weeks’ time. it was seamless and effortless from start to finish. We can’t thank you enough Frank.

Patrice Foster

16:52 28 Nov 19

As a first time home buyer I was nervous, anxious and some days worried if this was even possible. From the first time I spoke to Frank all the way up until our day of closing, Frank always said, "Don't worry Patrice everything is going to work out." I trusted his words and he was right. He always communicated with me, no matter the question. He and everyone at New Dwelling Mortgage were so professional, thorough, and knowledgeable. I don't know how I was so blessed with such an amazing team but I learned to never question God. Our family is so thankful for Frank, Annette and the whole team at New Dwelling. We will be using them in the future and recommending to all of our family and friends.

Buying a home is the single most expensive and nerve wracking purchase most people make in their lives, but when you have someone like Frank on your side the process is effortless and worry free. I truly can’t find the words to express just how grateful my husband and I were to have Frank during our first home purchase several years ago and again at our refinance just recently. The amount of knowledge, honesty, integrity and passion to help others that Frank displays is beyond comparison. We never had to question anything because we were kept well informed every step of the way; that level of peace of mind is absolutely priceless. On top of how seamless the entire process was our refinance was complete in just 15 days! Honestly can’t thank him enough!

01:41 26 Nov 19

Honestly could not recommend this company enough. I hope whoever is reading this has the pleasure of working with Frank himself. Such a wonderful human who walked me through one of the most stressful times of my life with ease and confidence, making sure I was comfortable with every step of the way. Explained everything to me in detail and made sure I wasn’t signing anything without understanding it entirely. Thank you, Frank!

As a first time home buyer , the process felt intimidating and overwhelming. I didn’t know where to start. I am so thankful I researched, which led me to Frank Collo. I’ve never met such an professional individuals with the patience like Frank. There was so many things I didn’t understand, and he literally held me hand through my whole process. His team at New Dwelling Mortgage literally made me feel like a family, I didn’t go days without a update and a hello! I never would’ve thought four months later I would’ve closed on my dream home! It felt unattainable and hopeless before I met Frank. Frank and Annette made moves happen right away, and was working hard around the clock to make everything possible. I’m trying to give them the correct credit for what was done for me but honestly words don’t do Justice. I’m going to be referring everyone in my family at this point. I’m blown away by the love I received at New Dwelling Mortgage and how fast I had the keys into my dream home!

I jumped into this "Home Buying" thing unexpectedly. Being a single mom who has always rented I was very nervous but I went for it. Frank took the time to educate me every single step of the way and I couldn't be more grateful. Frank and Annette were professional, proficient and an absolute pleasure to work with. It's because of them that I made it through this experience with complete comfort and ease. Thank you Frank and Annette! We did it and it's because of you!!! I highly recommend New Dwelling Mortgage!!

Our friend recommended that we reach out to Frank Collo/New Dwelling when we first started the process of selling/purchasing our home to advise us of what we could afford as well as educate us on what was needed to secure mortgage.Frank was amazing every step of the way. He was very kind and honest and always available to build out different price scenarios for us and answer the zillion questions that we had. When it was time to lock in and secure our loan, he moved at lightning speed!Although, the months leading up to closing were extremely stressful, with so many parties to coordinate with, papers to fill out and deadlines to meet, we were able to take comfort in knowing we were in the best of hands.

Ana Salgado

We were looking to refinance our home and without a shadow of a doubt we reached out to Frank. Frank helped us several years ago to purchase our first home. His knowledge professionalism and honesty are very hard to come by now and days. Frank is very up to date when it comes to technology. The process was very easy.

17:39 22 Aug 19

23:15 01 Jul 19

Let me first begin by saying that I was recommended to New Dwelling Mortgage by my brother. And I am so glad he did. I have used mortgage brokers before. But none have been as caring and concerned. Me and my wife had a lot of questions about refinancing options and financial concerns. Frank Collo took the time. And it was long. To go over step by step. And help us lay out a great financial plan that worked best for us. I like how responsive Frank and his staff are to questions and walking us through the entire process. Me and my wife couldn’t be happier. I love that before our Closing they called us and went over every detail or change. And even after the closing they called to find out how everything went. I can’t say enough good things. And I highly recommend using New Dwelling Mortgage for your next mortgage or refinance. Highly Recommend A++++++

Jayne Figueroa

00:21 01 Jul 19

I am so incredibly grateful to the New Dwelling Mortgage team. Frank, Annette, they are truly heaven sent! Frank took his time, many times, to explain the entire process to me, answer my dozens of questions, and put me at ease. Annette is also one of the nicest people I've ever encountered and helped clarify so many things to me. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for making this process easy for us!

Buying your first home is intimidating ⁠— particularly in New York. Frank helped demystify the mortgage process as it unfolded, helping us every step of the way. Out of several different brokerage firms, New Dwelling Mortgage was able to get us the best rate. From our first conversation to the day of closing, my wife and I were delighted (and surprised) by how smooth everything went. Frank is exceptionally friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, and we look forward to working with him again in the future.

Daniel McCarthy

Making one of the biggest purchases in your life, buying a home, is intense. It’s scary and stressful. It causes feelings of uncertainty and more importantly excitement. Frank and his team make sure they are enhancing the feelings of excitement and create a safe environment to make you feel at ease during the whole process. Frank not only makes you feel like they want a “win” for you with the mortgage, interest rate, perfect house etc; he whole heartily wants it. They take their time to explain every aspect of the mortgage and home buying process. They are thorough with step by step explanations and answering any questions that may arise. Frank is an absolute pleasure to work with. With Frank it feels like you get an amazing professional and a friend. I was recommended by a friend and I couldn’t thank them enough. Before we even closed I all ready recommended another friend. I will continue to recommend and utilize Frank and New Dwelling in the future.

03:10 08 Feb 19

New Dwelling Mortgage is an amazing company. Frank and his team are super informative, very thorough, and extremely kind. They really go out of their way to make sure you are well taken care of, and you are given every piece of information to make sure you feel at ease. They communicated with us every step of the way, making sure we were up to date with the process, at times communicating with us outside of their work hours to ensure we are to the minute with the process. We closed on schedule, and was able to work wonders to lower closing costs. Wouldn't go anywhere else!!!

Keila Zapata

18:47 07 Feb 19

New Dwelling Mortgage is truly an amazing company, not only for it's ability to work efficient and quickly in ensuring our mortgage. They were honest and established strong lines of communication throughout this entire process. Buying a home can be very stressful and this process has been quick and such a blessing!!! We are very grateful to Frank Collo who is the President of the company, he took the time to build trust, he is extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain each stage of the process. From our first conference call to locking down our interest rate, Frank walked us through the entire process with great detail- no additional fees were charged for ensuring our mortgage. We were also blessed with a credit towards our closing cost-$2,000….words can’t express, how grateful we are to Frank and his entire TEAM. We will continue to utilize New Dwelling for guidance & future business. May God continue to bless this company!!!

01:36 04 Jan 19

Frank was very informative throughout the whole process, he was available to answer any questions we had and always had a pleasant demeanor. He saved us thousands of dollars on guiding us to lock in before the rates increased. This knowledge only comes from people like Frank who have the experience in the business and are truly looking out for the customer. We highly recommend him and will refer him to family and friends in the future.

Keith Diaz

03:14 21 Nov 18

I have worked with Frank on several occasions over the last few years. I would highly recommend him to anyone buying a home or looking for a great mortgage broker. He is extremely knowledgeable, thorough and throughout the the process he explains every detail in a way that anyone could understand. With his expertise and knowledge he is able to present you with multiple options and will help guide you in choosing what’s best for your situation! He is extremely well organized and you can tell he really cares for his clients and is working in their best interest. Buying a house is a daunting process and I have worked with multiple other mortgage brokers in the past, none of them have even come close to his expertise, knowledge, patience, professionalism or compassion. His personality makes you feel like family, and combined with his knowledge and confidence you really feel at ease through the entire process. I hope to work with him again in the future! Thank you for everything Frank!

My Girlfriend and I started off with a different mortgage broker. Then a friend of mine recommended we try Frank out. From that day Frank broke everything down step by step to us. Then when we told the other broker that we where going to use Frank and not him, he proceeded to curse me out and threatening me by saying that it was only because of him that we would be getting this house. So when we told Frank what happened he reassured us that there was nothing to worry about. He even made sure to help guide us through the whole closing process even though his work was done. Even telling us what to tell our own lawyer and realtor. So they could push along the closing process and date. We will recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home. Thank you again Frank and the whole staff at New Dwelling Mortgage.

I highly recommend New Dwelling Mortgage. Working with Frank has been an absolute pleasure. He brings such peace to a typically stressful experience with his patience and support. Frank treats you as if you are a part of his immediate circle of friends- he gets the BEST possible rate out there AND gives you the attention you deserve throughout the entire process- something i know as a previous “bank customer“ is very hard to come by. Frank walks you through each and every step thoroughly - I’ve learned more about the process than I ever could have imagined. I’m so grateful that I was connected with New Dwelling and I fully intend on working with Frank again in the future!

This is by far the best experience I have ever had in purchasing a new home. Frank was upfront, professional, effective and efficient. He now has a customer for life, and will recommend him to anyone looking for a mortgage. He made a complicated process as easy as possible. I can't thank him enough.

Just closed on my home and it was such a wonderful pleasure to work with Frank! He was heaven sent and my peace throughout my home buying process. He always respond to my emails, texts and phone calls immediately! He was honest, straight forward and played so many different roles to help me get through this. I would recommend him a million times! Thank you so much Frank!Love Marta and StefanoGrazie

Frank is awesome and such a blessing to work with. He was always available no matter the day or time. Always helpful even when we had issues, he was always a great support and plenty of advice and encouragement. He was present every step of the way. Frank has the customer’s best interest at heart. Very knowledgeable in his field and a welcoming friendly attitude. This was the best recommendation I have ever received and I will always recommend his amazing service. I feel like we gain a very important person in our lives. Thank you is not enough to say about our experience. Gracias Frank.

I would highly recommend Frank to anyone buying a home and looking for a great mortgage broker. Frank is so knowledgeable, well organized and you can tell he really cares for his clients and is working in their best interest. As first time home buyers we were really sceptical of finding someone good to work with so we shopped around and Frank blew everyone out of the water. He made the process so easy and user friendly from start to finish and he's simply a pleasure to work with.

What an amazing person. Frank was recommended to us by a friend, spoke with him over the phone and felt comfortable. Frank is an honest respectful man and most importantly a true believer. He explains everything in details takes the time to answer calls and returns back calls. Me and my wife drove him crazy with our questions on our first house. We had no idea about the process, he explained to us the process step by step. We never felt pushed into something, he shows up to the closing to make sure everything is smooth with paperwork. I could write a full page about this man and still wouldn’t be enough. I recognize frank to my friends and they are working with him currently and they are happy with him. If you need help with your new home how to apply for pre approval, and get the lowest rates call frank. He knows his stuff and been in the business for many years. I don’t usually writing reviews but this man deserves one for his hard work and most important is His honesty. Thank u for everything you have done for us to get in our first home.

I was going to do the process directly with my bank, but my bank wasn’t going to give me the fund for the place I was going to purchase. So I have my agent recommended Frank to me. As first time home buyer, we were extremely nervous with hundreds of questions. Frank is very patiently and took time to educate us on all documentation. He was understanding and incredibly helpful and explained everything during the process. And made the process very simple and went into detail on what was going on and when it was going to happen. Frank is professional, polite, friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend him to my family and friends and I am grateful to all the hard work he put into helping us to buy our first home.

Working in a real estate law firm I have had the pleasure of working on multiple real estate transactions with Frank, and when it came time to buy my own home he was my first call. Frank is a one of a kind mortgage broker who goes above and beyond for his clients. He is able to take a very difficult and stressful process and make it understandable and seamless. His work ethic and trustworthiness are also unmatched. You will not go wrong choosing Frank to assist you with your mortgage.
