    Brien is a great person who is very knowledgeable in the HECM marketplace. We had a hiccup during the lead-up to our closing and Brien took full responsibility. It speaks to the measure of an individual who can admit an error, take ownership,...

    I cannot thank you and Mrs. H enough for sticking with me and getting to the finish line. I know it was quite a long time due to delays caused by COVID as well as the local county with permits but it finally came to fruition. I look forward...

    The experience with Brian and Rachel was very responsive and professional. The experience with the firm chosen to close the the transaction was less than responsive and not handled in a professional manner.

    Thanks Mr. F for your business. It was unbelieveable to us that the settlement agent initially assigned could not provide the level of service necessary to close your loan in a timely fashion. Glad we moved it to another agent and were able...

    Well, it was very difficult to initially set up communications with you. My wife an I took the seminar with your main office and they said that you would contact us in a day or two. We didn't hear from you. Then I sent you a text or email (not...

    Thank you for allowing me to be of service to you on your HECM For Purchase loan. I did indeed fail to call you back promptly due to my being confused at the time because I had 2 Mr. Franklins calling at the same time and I thought there was...

    About
    I started in the HECM business in June of 1998 in Greensboro NC as a Loan Officer with Norwest Mortgage, later Wells Fargo Home Mortgage. I moved into a Sales Manager role in September of 2001 and remained in sales management there until WFHM exited the business in 2011. During those 10 years, I hired, trained, and mentored over 100 Loan Officers in the HECM Business. I have been a Vice President at 3 separate Banks before coming to RFS where today I am the Area Sales Manager for the states of NC, SC, and GA. I ascribe to servant leadership and to help our customers to have a great experience in the HECM loan process.
