"When I got my first home loan,
it was a very stressful time and
unfortunately it was mostly due to the
other loan officer. My phone calls were avoided,
and it took weeks to get my calls returned.
Luckily, that all changed
when we met Johnathan Barber.
We became clients of Johnathan over
five years ago. I didn't think that it was
possible to have such a personal relationship
with a mortgage specialist.
Whether I have a question about current
rates or loans or what's in our best interest
with our mortgage, Johnathan is always there.
He promptly answers calls and
e-mails-- making us feel that we are
his top priority. We have since referred
multiple family members and friends who
are astounded by amount of time and care
that Johnathan puts into making
homeownership dreams a reality!
We never imagined that we would have
developed a relationship that turned into
a friendship."

I was first introduced
to Johnathan Barber in 2005
when I was in the market
for a "fixer upper." I had
been through the mortgage
"drill" before, and I was
dreading the high pressure
and deceptive tactics that
I had experienced in the past. That all changed when I met Johnathan Barber!
He immediately put me at
ease with his friendly,
easy-going personality.
Over the years, I have
enjoyed Johnathan's
informative newsletters and
the many responses that he provided. When I needed a home improvement loan, I called Johnathan. When Nancy
was looking for a home refinance, she ran into those same tactics and huge origination fees.
I told her to call Johnathan, and her experience changed 180 degrees. Nancy just
closed on her new loan, and she was pleased with how Johnathan made it such a pleasant experience. Now, I am in the process of selling my house, and I am working with Johnathan
to get potential buyers preapproved. Nancy and I are getting married in October, and
we both look forward to working with Johnathan on all of out real estate investing for
many years to come.
