Need to verify if loan officer is legit

[Patricia Signor]

We are applying for a 30 year loan to purchase STR in Florida. I found this loan officer on line because I wanted 30 years fixed and nobody local Will do that. The loan officer is asking for my personal property tax bill and insurance bill. I sent him the dec sheet for my home insurance and he wants the part that tells him the insurance price. I don't understand why he needs these things. I'm concerned if he is legitimate. I feel he is asking for too much info. what should I send to him and how do I see if he is for real?

As for sharing personal information... well that's just part of the deal but always best to know who you are working with.
