I can't speak specifically to experience with lending but just based on the company culture and everyone we've worked with, I would recommend them.

@Brad Stegall My wife and I own two duplexes in Peoria which we purchased over the last year.

And here are several other examples of mortgage rates paying no attention to the Fed Funds Rate.This isn't a mortgage-specific phenomenon.

My concern was small single person businesses are subject to robberies which occurred frequently in the area in the early 1980's.The building was built in 1890 and NYC established building codes in the 1920's, and someone owned it all the while passed and my dad offered to purchase it but was beaten to it by a flipper who got it for $23K, and he bought it from the flipper for $25K.

Like many agents, my first deals were from long time family friends, specifically on the buy side (which is changing quickly now).

It's a 1972 ranch with a superb location with elevation and views of almost the whole west valley of Phoenix and specifically downtown.
