Thank you so much for the great review, Vickie! Your responsiveness to doc requests made everything go so smoothly. It was wonderful working with you. Wishing you and Paula every happiness in your new home. Congratulations!
Summit Mortgage was there holding our hands during our entire process of our home loan. Every question was answered, and they made the process stress free.
