References From Clients and Realtors®

"When we first made the decision to purchase a luxury condo in Florida , our initial plan was to obtain financing from our local bank, but our REALTOR@ recommended we talk to Chuck Olmsted. During our initial conversation which lasted a little less than an hour, Chuck was able to fully grasp the complexities of our finances and set up a frame work which allowed me to provide him financial information quickly and efficiently. Surprisingly, the rates were a good bit lower than what we had been able to obtain from our bank. We were approved for the new loan in less than one week. Chuck Olmsted was able to pull all necessary information to allow for the approval by coordinating their efforts with our bank and were able to flawlessly complete our transaction within 30 days. I would not hesitate to recommend Chuck, and in fact have already done so to some friends who are seeking to purchase homes and/or condominiums."

“Even though we were living out of state ( Michigan ), Chuck was able to handle our transaction thoroughly and in a timely manner. What was most impressive was that he took the time to get to know us. Chuck Olmsted made it personal as well as professional. In addition, Chuck obtained the best rate available, and was present at the closing. The next time we need to finance a home, we will use Chuck Olmsted, and we highly recommend him.”
