A Pleasure To Work With
The home loan process can be a daunting proposition, as there are a multitude of loan and lender options. I conducted a thorough review of financial institution offerings and decided to engage Chris Crandall to help guide our family thru what can be a time-consuming, complicated and, potentially, frustrating refinance process. Chris was the consummate professional, clearly and carefully explaining various loan scenarios and the advantages/disadvantages of each until we decided on the package that made the most sense for our specific needs. Throughout the entire process, he stayed in constant communication to keep us informed of the progress and ensured proper timeline expectations were set. He displayed a keen understanding of the market dynamics and uncanny ability to simplify seemingly complicated concepts. I can’t thank Chris enough for his patience and diligence and highly recommend him to anyone who’s exploring home loan options. He represents his company in an exemplary manner and definitely treats his clients with the utmost respect.

Fantastic, Patient and Helpful
Christian was amazing throughout my entire loan and escrow process. I am a first time buyer and he patiently answered every question I had. Additionally, if I needed to go over documents I was signing, he was willing to go over every word of them with me in real time if needed. He basically walked me through every step of the way leaving no room for misunderstanding. He worked to get me the best interest rate possible and gave me different financing options. He was professional and pleasant, knowledgeable and helpful. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a home loan.

I am happy to endorse Chris Crandall as a loan officer. I have worked in the mortgage banking industry and have done many loans. I would hire Chris again before even considering anybody else. Chris is very knowledgable and has a great grasp of the loan industry. My loan was complex and yet Chris was always upbeat and very supportive.

To make things even sweeter he was able to pool his resources together and get us …
Chris is a true professional! He was honest, thoughtful, responsive, knowledgeable and dedicated to making this process as seamless as possible for my wife and I. This process can be very overwhelming and daunting for first time home owners but with the help from Chris, there was never one moment where I did not think he had the best interest for my wife and I first and foremost. Any time and I mean any time I had a question or concern he would have that answer or put me at ease within 10 minutes if not right away. To make things even sweeter he was able to pool his resources together and get us an 1/8 of a point discount. He made my dreams possible and I will always be grateful.
