Focus Financial & Mortgage Corporation

Edit: My mortgage broker, Jeff Kimpan swtiched companies as of January 2008. He is now with Mortgage Capital Group in Crystal Lake, IL. I still recommend him!
Jeff Kimpan is my hero.
I’ve needed to refinance my condo for about 6 months. Every single broker I talked to told me; 1. I don’t make enough money 2. My condo isn’t worth enough yet. 3. I have too much debt. 4. They couldn’t do it.
So, when I approached Jeff to see if he could figure something out, the hope was small, and I made this clear to him. I didn’t want him to feel bad if he couldn’t work anything out for me…
And at first, he told me I was not eligible by a sliver. And then the next day he calls and says «I’ve been digging around looking for a program that will work for you.» And, it did! His hard work paid off, and I honestly, have never been so happy since I closed on that damn condo in the first place! (I saved $ 141 a month, hooray!)
Jeff rocks. Seriously. There are a lot of snakey mortgage brokers, but this guy is the real deal. He sat with me at Starbucks and explained the ENTIRE thing in detail to me (something my first broker did nothing of), and made sure I knew exactly how everything was going to go down. I appreciated this so much.
So, I’d recommend him to my best friend, my family, anyone. And to Unilocalers. :) And don’t worry that his office is way out there in Wauconda, he lives in the city and does a lot of work here…
