"After being turned down by another lender for a smaller amount, Rick was able to get me and my family into a gorgeous home for more than what we expected we could ever get. I cannot say enough good things about this man. He is on the ball with communication and honesty. Helped us from start to finish no matter what we needed or what questions we had. I’m sure he was glad to be done with our loan anyway, i 100% recommend him. He is so knowledgeable about everything and that really helped the process go smoothly."

"I am a realtor in SC and had never used Rick. I had this elderly couple that I had sold their home and under contract for a new home based on their lenders approval. Less than 2 weeks from closing their lender dropped the ball. I sent them to two different agents that could not get it done. I was referred to Rick by another agent, gave him a call. He jumped on the file had been approved, through underwriting, and at the closing table on time. And today’s market that is unbelievable, I will always be loyal to Rick. He did an amazing job and pulled a miracle out of the sky. I have sent his number to several other agents. Thank you Rick for a fabulous experience."
