"Rick Scherer was our lender who did an outstanding job. We were caught off guard without lease and owner wanted us to buy or vacate within 60 days. We originally reached out to local lenders who told us to come up with 60k cash or advised us to rent in a different down but it just wasn't possible. Rick got us approved same day with no money down. No back and forth, easy to work with, professional, polite and most of the time seemed to be the only person on our side and advocating for us, as the realtor fumbled at every step. We highly encourage you to reach out to Rick, he gets it done when others seem to bothered to make it happen, words do not describe the reflief we had, reach out and working with Rick. He made a miracle happen while being an absolute pleasure throughout. Thanks Rick and Brenda!!"

"I love how fast the team pulled everything together. I was told I would get some of my money back on the appraisal, I asked and never heard back about that. Also it was very hard to learn what my mortgage will be every month, I feel this is something that should be put on the table from the start. I had to ask several times and by the time I found out we were kind of at the end of the process and if this was something that was too much for me it was too late. As a first time homebuyer I had no clue what was ahead and I feel there should have been more of a schedule or lay out to keep the buyer prepared and informed. I do feel Rick was professional and appreciate support from Brenda, it was a tough process but we got through it."
