Working with Declan is so easy. He is very quick, detailed, professional and friendly. He answered all my questions and also explained each step as we progressed through the process. He understands the importance of timing and makes sure all the deadlines are met and along with his team, they'll make sure they've all documents and everything taken care of. Declan is very approachable and I could easily ask any questions, any number of times. If you're looking for a lender and a first time home buyer, Declan is your guy.

Declan helped me with purchasing my first home. Needless to say I knew slim to nothing about the whole process which was very intimidating to me. He walked me through the whole process and made sure that everything was clear to me. He also worked restlessly to address any concerns I had and find the best rate possible. On the day of closing, my realtor timed how long it would take to close. He clocked it in at 36 mins which he said was the fastest closing he had been to in the +30 years he had been in the industry. A month after the closing, he also called me to check in and make sure that I was properly set up for my first mortgage payment. I will recommend him to everyone and anyone purchasing a home
