Helped Tremendously!

"The Firefighter Next Door Program has helped us tremendously at getting us into a new home that fits for our family. As a blended family of five kids - Sheff helped us to get the mortgage loan and understand the mortgage process. He had weekly updates and very easily answered our questions. Cheri helped us find a house that fits our needs. She was very prompt via text messaging and emailing questions about houses. Cheri and Sheff did everything in a exceptional manner and very prompt at getting the paperwork processes through the lender. Also, April and Caress contributed to helping us with paperwork and questions needed for this to happen. We looking forward to raising our family in our home. Thank you to all."
