VA purchase Huntingtown, MD

Just recently I moved into a new house - on time and on budget. I couldn’t have done this without the help of several people. One in particular, my loan officer Brent Mendelson, made this move a happy one. As I am sure everyone is aware getting a loan in these times is difficult to say the least. I stopped counting all the requirements and bits of info a borrower has to produce. I just know it was a bunch and I depended very heavily on Brent to guide me through the process. I am a person who recognizes honesty, efficiency, and reliability. Brent scores at the top in all three. I could reach him any time of any day when I needed to. He even followed the deal while he was on vacation. He never missed a promised delivery, and never wasted my time. Thanks Brent!!

My two cents, this client had VA eligibility and NEVER used it in decades. He said no one had ever talked to him as to why he should. He got a lower rate as a result of talking with me and keeping an open mind.

VA purchase Manassas Virginia

Good morning Brent.  I want to apologize for not submitting this sooner, but my wife has me busy helping pack and moving boxes to the new place. Below you will find my honest testimonial in reference to my recent home purchase.

My wife and I decided to purchase a new home after thirty years of renting. We were not looking forward to all the requirements and paperwork after the housing bubble. However, Brent Mendelson took all the work and worry out of this task and made it a pleasant experience. We only had to visit the office once, and everything else was handled by email. Whenever we had a question, we received a response from him within 30 minutes. By the end of the process, I felt I had a new friend in my life. Brent is very easy going and laid back, but takes care of business. Thank you Brent and we wish you all the best.

As a first time home buyer, Brent was perfect. He explained the entire process in language I could understand. He was extremely knowledgeable in the VA loan process. All of the questions I had were answered right away. He always explained the pros and cons so I felt comfortable with the decisions I made. Brent truly went above and beyond.

Brent,  Trish and I wanted to thank you again for getting us through another loan process with little to no stress. Your responsiveness and knowledge regarding the whole process, what to expect, and what costs would likely be was just as valuable to Trish and I this time around as it was when we refinanced with you.  We will certainly refer any of our other friends looking for a loan officer to you.


Thanks again!

HPAP Condo 1st time DC buyer

As I prepared to turn 30, I set a goal to start saving money in order to buy a home by the time I was 35 - thinking it would be impossible to do it any time before then. I was referred to Brent at First Mariner Mortgage and encouraged to chat with him about loan options, just to see what I might be able to qualify for and what my mortgage might look like. Lo and behold, I found out that I had far more options than I'd even imagined - and was able to purchase my first home just a few months into year 30! 

Brent was incredibly helpful, friendly, and easy to work with. He explained everything I needed to know in easy-to-understand terms, was readily accessible and available, and was by my side the entire time, making what could have been such an intimidating and confusing process remarkably easy. 

When I first started this process, I really didn't think it would be so quick and painless - I thought it would take years before I'd be able to buy my own home! Now I'm happy to say that I'm settled into my new place and am looking forward to many more years of homeownership!

Hi Brent,

 I am so sorry it has taken me this long to get this written. Things just got way out of hand since we moved in and still are settling in.  We are ready for your visit any time you want to come out.  We did get that hot tub...so remember we can soak after a long hard day of skiing!  LOL 

 
Please find the testimonial attached and let me know what you think. It's hard for me to put into words exactly how I feel about all that you did for us.  Our dream would not have come true if it were not for your efforts and unconditional support.  You are our hero and champion.  We love you!



 

Sincerely,
