Rich made this whole process easy and not stressful at all

I have used this mortgage broker before. The first time it was a dream and I truly enjoyed my experience. The second time, however, was a complete headache and very stressful situation. I understand the issues come up during buying a house, totally understandable. It was extremely difficult though to get answers or even get a response in general in a timely manner. If I did get a response, it was rather vague or didn’t completely answer the question. One time an issue almost delayed my closing, it was a problem with my homeowners insurance and the roof. I could not get a clear answer on what needs to be done in order to handle the situation. Finally my Realtor had to step in and push very hard to finally get the answer that it was a mistake and they will fix it. This was two days before closing, and I was scared. I was going to not be able to close on my house. Once again, I totally understand that things need handled, and that things come up, it is the lack of response in the lack of clarity that was frustrating. My Realtor told me that she had prior experience with veterans unit and it was not good, but I assured her I had a great experience the first time. I am starting to understand now what she was saying when she told me this. I enjoyed working with Rich and he was pleasant to talk to, but his team was difficult to reach and work with. I even had issues after closing with funds being dispersed properly that I still had to send several emails to even start to get an answer That makes sense. Once again, it was an error, and I was given a credit, thankfully. I appreciate that, but I was still very stressed out in my insurance agent, very upset that she was not given the funds on time as stated previously several times by her. I am hoping that this error does not cause a lapse in coverage when this mistake had nothing to do with me. I’m only worried that if I did not get involved and start messaging different people that it would not have been handled.

Helpful In assisting us through the process and challenges we faced along the way.

Rich and Rachel were very helpful with educating me on VA Loans (this was my first) and providing clear communication throughout the process.

I took out a conventional re-finance which was a more complicated endeavor than the VA loan I had previously. Rich Paul’s and Abbey Wandel were absolutely outstanding in navigating the complex process. I just can’t say enough good things about them.
