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,

Lynda G.

Carroll county conventional purchase


Brent is a fantastic loan officer who went above and beyond to help us with our loan.  Brent patiently answered all of our questions (and we had a lot of them) until we completely understood the answers.  He was readily available to assist us off-hours, which was critical for us as we are tied up during normal business hours.  We ran into some unexpected bumps in the road during the purchase process, but Brent helped us to find a workable solution that to help resolve the issues.  It was through his efforts of working directly with the Processors and Underwriters that we were able buy our dream home.  Brent is honest, forthright, dependable, and a client advocate. We highly recommend Brent and we will definitely use him again in the future.

CDA/FHA refinance Condo in PG county


Brent has been knowledgeable, informative, pleasant, and always prompt with responses. I wanted to refi and get out of Maryland's troublesome CDA loan so I could rent my condo and take advantage of lower interest rates. Bogman was a dead end and most Loan Officers have no experience with the program. Brent understood the program and knew who to reach out to at Bogman to make things happen. It took awhile but, the end result made it all worth while! Brent will be added to my Christmas card list this year! Thanks much -

VA purchase Leesburg, Virginia


I had a great experience using Brent and 1st Mariner Mortgage.  He took the time to explain to me just what I was committing to as well as what I can expect each step of the loan process. He was available to me whenever I needed to talk to him or ask him questions.  He explained to me the loan process in terms that I could clearly understand and ensured that I was comfortable with how things were moving along the way. More importantly he was there for me in person at closing to ensure that everything went smoothly and that I was taken care of.  If you have any doubts about using Brent then please rest assured from a previous customer.  You can not be in better hands.
