Helpful and Pleasant!

Teacher Next Door Realtor: Mark Galloway
Teacher Next Door Loan Officer: Joshua Paz

"Joshua was so helpful and pleasant to work with. He answered my questions each step of the way. He explained everything well and in a way that made it easier to understand. He explained the numbers and the home buying lingo very well. I feel more knowledgeable about the home buying process now that I’ve gone on this journey with him. I love that I was able to text him when needed. That made things more convenient for me. Joshua, thank you for your patience with me. Thank you for your guidance. You made this process so easy, and I do appreciate you checking in on me along the way."

Excellent Job!

Teacher Next Door Realtor: Maureen Frederick
Teacher Next Door Loan Officer: Scott McRae

"Scott did an excellent job walking through each phase of the home-buying process. He gets to know you and your needs which helped put us at ease throughout the beginning phase of home buying. As a first-time buyer, there were lots of questions on our end and Scott did a great job answering everything in a way that made you feel like you were making the best decision. He was easily reachable by text, phone, and email and would even take late calls when things changed or came up. After we closed on our home, Scott congratulated us and had us look forward to some mail. It turned out to be a beautiful cutting board outlined as our state with our home coordinates, most definitely a result of all the cooking plans we've talked about throughout our phone calls.”
