The representative I spoke with was informative but lack any enthusiasm for his job. I actually felt like I had woken him up from a nap.

Bank 5 service is 2nd to none

Bank 5 service is 2nd to none. I've purchased multiple homes, refied multiple loans, and Bank 5 has outdone every other mortgage firm. Any concern I had along the way, was addressed immediately to my delight. They also had the best rate. I highly recommend them and I reserve that for rare gems.
