I was very anxious about getting my parent's home appraised, but Mr. Spitzer allayed my anxiety by explaining the appraisal process and being totally non-judgemental....the house is not in the best condition, so that was a concern of mine. I totally recommend and will hire Mr. Spitzer for the appraisal of my own home!"

"My husband I and used Mike M, Peter D, and the Guaranteed Rate team previously with our home purchase and refinance in Orange County, CA. They were great then and actually approached us with a way to refinance and save hundreds per month by doing so. We wouldn’t have known about the refinance opportunity otherwise. We knew we found a great team for all our mortgage needs from that point on. Mike, Peter, and his Guaranteed Rate were the natural choice when my husband and I decided to make a huge move from California to Florida. When we found the home we wanted to purchase, we called Guaranteed Rate. The local real estate agent strongly resisted us going with Guaranteed Rate and insisted we use a local lender she was familiar with. We told her no thanks; we have our team for life. By the end of the deal, the same real estate agent raved about how amazing Guaranteed Rate is and how wonderful they were to work with. This is especially true because 2 days before closing, Hurricane Michael hit closeby our new house. While we thankfully were not impacted, all mortgages had to be closely inspected in nearby counties. Guaranteed Rate made frequent calls to everyone involved in our real estate deal and quickly got us back on track to close in record time. Folks working with other lenders didn’t get so lucky and some are still being delayed. Thanks again to Mike, Peter, and the entire Guaranteed Rate team for making our home ownership dreams come true again!!"

"My fiancée and I had the great misfortune of house hunting during an exceptionally crazy time in the real estate industry. It was a big-time seller’s market, buyer demand at an all-time high, interest rates skyrocketing, etc… We were looking at houses all throughout the Greater Philadelphia region – pretty much anything out of the city, but within 25 miles of the city. As you can imagine, this was an incredibly long and demoralizing process, especially being first-time home buyers. Thankfully, we had an ace in the hole! Jon Leonard, our broker at Kuranda Mortgage, was an absolute GODSEND! He worked tirelessly and communicated with us around-the-clock. He never missed any of our calls and always responded to emails / texts quickly. Jon knew how to explain complex information in a way that would make sense to us, and he had the answers to all of our questions. I honestly don’t know how we would have gotten through this without him. Throughout the home buying process, you’ll encounter plenty of agents, brokers, websites, friends, and other people who try to tell you “what’s what” in the real estate industry. It becomes pretty hard to know who to trust, and if they’re truly looking out for your best interest. If you need someone who’s gonna give it to you straight and get you the best possible deals and rates – go to Kuranda Mortgage, ask for Jon Leonard, and thank me later ?"

"Olga was the best realtor we could have asked for. She advocated for us every step of the way and helped us look closely at the pros and cons of the houses we considered. We were lucky to have Olga as our realtor, and would use her again in a heartbeat!"

"<strong>The good:</strong> <br /> Initial conversation went well; fair fees and competitive rates.  Broker was responsive and eager to proceed with the loan (called me a couple times even after I told him I'd get back in a few hours - hey eagerness is ok with me).  <br /> <strong>The Bad:</strong> <br /> After signing the commitment papers and paid for rate-lock/appraisal, getting a call back was non-existent (always says he's busy).  To be fair the broker was usually available when I called <br /> <strong>The Ugly:</strong> <br /> The biggest issues is that AFMC uses Springhouse Appraisals (an aggregator who makes money on the difference between what you pay and how low they can pay their appraisers).  Their business model depends on how low they can spend on subcontractor appraisers - so how much experience do you think their hires have?  My appraiser was SHADY.  Suppose to be Philly based (first question I asked my broker) but his business address is a 3rd floor apartment that was on the rental market.  His cell number is Jersey based and he missed a comp property on the next block but picked one up that's half mile away (too far in Philly).  Needless to say it was LOW!!  I don't mean a little under but laughing-on-the-floor low.  At that point to pull out of the deal means losing $1250 (rate lock & appraisal fee) so AFMC would not care.  My broker wasn't helpful even though I showed him the sold property on the next block.  (he said he'll talk to his boss but ended up not calling back).  <br /> <strong>Bottom Line:</strong> <br /> I made a mistake by not using my regular mortgage guy (he had too many projects and wanted me to wait).  My recommendation is to use someone else if you live in Philly and need a high appraisal.  I think Jersey would be ok with this company.  Otherwise they provide competitive rates and have lower than average fees with competent mortgage brokers on staff - when you can get a hold of them. <br />"
