Working with Ben Lawson, has truly be an amazing experience. He never once failed to return a call or message promptly, and was an absolute joy to work with. As a first time home buyer, Ben couldn't have made it any easier to work and get what needed to be done, done. I will always recommend Ben to anyone looking to buy a house. I now consider him a very personal and family friend. Thank you for everything. When in doubt, Ben Lawson is your man.

Kathey Grodi is the finest Mortgage Loan Originator that I have ever known and you could not do better, anywhere. Throughout the process she is incredibly organized, she is clear about what she needs making the process much easier, and she is a great person to boot! Kathey will fight for you and she makes your dreams her own. She has enormous integrity, is a CPA by trade so she understands the math, and she will watch your back. Also, her ability to successfully navigate complex applications is unparalleled. I cannot recommend her more highly. If you get the chance, use Kathey for your next mortgage

All of the feedback on Angel is accurate. She is versatile, efficient, and knows the business. She helped me flip through a multitude of options and scenarios in a proficient manner. While we aren't closing on our home until later this month, I feel confident saying that Angel and the team at iServe are working hard to ensure everything is smooth and flawless at close.
