Report
Dean was great not only professional but kind as well. Dean was quick and knowledgeable about all the different home loans that could apply to my situation but he also went over and behind to help me qualify for a pre qualify for a home loan. He answered all questions and always took time to understand my concerns and offer feedback. I will definitely be recommending him to others including Racine Mai who also was a great help with helping me with qualifying for my home loan and other grants associated with my loan purchase.
