"As a first time home buyer, I was not expecting the process to move along so quickly. Jennifer and NFM had me clear to close within 3 weeks from the date the seller accepted my offer. The documentation requests were straight forward and everything that was needed from me was requested all at once. This saved me time and energy by not having to go back and forth to upload documents and was very appreciated. "

"Jennifer Cook was *always* there to help us, answer questions, etc. She returned calls, texts or emails very quickly, usually within an hour, during the day, at night, on weekends and even when she was sick! Filling out the forms and other paperwork was almost all done electronically via email or website, so we could do it when convenient after work or weekends. Jennifer wasn't afraid to give her honest opinions. I couldn't ask for a better home mortgage loan experience. Very highly recommended."
