Testimonials

David Springstroh

Hey Donna, Thanks for making the loan/buying process so easy! It was a real advantage for me to be able to work with both an Allen Tate agent, and Allen Tate Mortgage Consultant. You guys worked together behind the scenes to make a lot happen that I never had to get involved in. The best part is that the great service came along with a great rate...one that matched the lowest rate I was offered by other lenders. Overall, I could not be happier with the process and the results! Thanks again! David Springstroh

Donna Thomas, I can’t thank you enough for your help in refinancing my home. After speaking to a few previous lenders, then speaking to you, it was clear in my mind you were the person I was going to do business with. It had nothing to do with interest rates (although you did get me a great rate), but rather the professionalism and expertise you displayed in our conversation, also you displayed to me that you had my best interest in mind and that means everything to me. There were some unusual circumstances that we ran across during the refinance process but you always guided me through them, the fact is that you had to help guide the closing lawyer through them at times! I have and always will recommend you and Allen Tate mortgage to anyone I speak to interested in a loan. Near the end of the process I actually started calling you Aunt Donna. I have already told a few people “ go to Allen Tate Mortgage and ask for Donna Thomas “. Again, I can’t thank you enough and I look forward to doing business with you in the future. Sincerely, Ken Krantz

Good morning to you all! I wanted to write a short email to thank all of you for making my home buying experience absolutely WONDERFUL! I truly appreciate the personal attention and service that you provided me with. You guys are really great at what you do! They say that word of mouth marketing is the best way to advertise and I want you to know that I WILL be telling everyone about my experience with Allen Tate. Thank you so much for everything! Have a great day, Melody Aleman

Hi Donna, First let me take the time to thank you for all your hard work on helping me get a mortgage for my home. You made the job so easy, it was hard to believe it was happening. I have to admit, I am a bit of a sceptic and also wanted to know exactly how much everything was so I could feel comfortable about signing the papers. As this was like a first mortgage for us since our last mortgage was obtained 33 years ago, things have certainly changed. You always returned my calls in a timely manner and always tried to put my mind at ease. At times I just felt it was too good to be true.Thank you for all your help. If you need a testimonial, please use mine. I would highly recommend you and your staff. Thank you again and have a very Happy Holiday and a safe healthy New Year. Sincerely, Stephanie Urbanowicz

PS I am really enjoying my new home! Thanks for all you did to make the process a success...God has really blessed you with a gift, and I am so grateful that you have chosen to walk in that gift - even during the tough times. Keep doing what you do because you truly make a difference in the lives of those who think of owning a home as only a "dream." I was once that person, but now I am a witness that home ownership is more than only a "dream." It's a "dream come true!!" Sincerely, Yolanda
