Nicole, thank you so much for taking the time to post a review. You truly timed your refinance perfectly; well ahead of multiple rate increases. The fact that you eliminated mortgage insurance AND lowered your rate as significantly as you did,...

This is a very special review because I know that as much as you say I worked “tirelessly”, I know there were sleepless nights on your end. I feel privileged that you had enough faith in me to stick with plan even though it was a long-term...
