We refinanced a few times with Mr. Lavellee. They were no closing fees. The rates were low. Mr. Tom Lavellee is very professional, and a pleasure to work with.

The entire process was effortless. The interest rate was competitive with no closing costs. The cycle time from start to closing the deal was short. The team was responsive to my questions and kept me informed. 

Business response:

Thank you for the review and for trusting me and my team for your refinance! Glad to hear it was a smooth process. Call me if you have any questions.

We worked with Tom on a recommendation from another client of his and we're so glad we listened. Tom was incredibly friendly and amiable and was always there to answer any of our (many!) questions. Tom gets back to you very quickly with any questions that arise during the process and checks in consistently to see how things are going. With rising interest rates, every day was a new "ceiling" for us in terms of what we could afford. Tom understood this and kept us up to date daily. I cannot recommend working with Tom more. 

Business response:

Thank you for the nice review - your kind words are greatly appreciated. Please reach out with any questions or if you need anything, I'm happy to help!

Tom's process exceeded our expectations for expediency, simplicity, and transparency. Our most recent experience was the fourth loan I've done with Tom over the last twenty years. When I first worked with Tom many years ago, I was impressed with his processes that streamlined getting a loan. Over the years Tom has adopted new technology and stayed ahead of the competition making getting a home loan as painless as possible. On top of that, the interest rate we locked was very competitive. He was also able to pre-underwrite ou... read more

Tom was very knowledgable on all aspects of our refinancing. He was directly available to answer questions or make clarifications via text, email, or phone at any time of day or night. His efforts in closing the loan and walking us through each step was much appreciated. I have and will continue to recommend Tom to our family and friends. 

Business response:

Thank you for the recommendation and kind review. It's always a pleasure to work with you. Call me if you need anything.

Tom and his team are always available and willing to help and I have built a trusting relationship with Tom. Even though Tom was unable to provide his services, he was able to guide and coach me. I am very thankful to have his guidance and appreciate him going above and beyond to ensure I had the most up to date and timely information so that I could make appropriate arrangements with other lenders. He didn't have to do that but he did and I am very thankful! 

Business response:

Thank you for your kind words and review. I really appreciate the trust you have in me and my team. Please don't hesitate to reach out with questions anytime.

Tom Lavallee and his team are great to work with. Buying a new home can be very taxing, however they make it as easy as it can be. I have used them in the past as well with the current purchase and will do so in the future if the need ever arises again. Thanks to Tom and your team.
