“I was a bit concerned about access when I had to make my way to a relatively urban physical branch. All of my previous interactions with this firm have been online or by telephone; this is the first time I have needed personal assistance, which speaks well for the organization. I was pleased to discover that is an easily found, convenient location with parking validation. I was seen on a quiet weekday afternoon and received prompt and accurate assistance with a couple of small issues by a congenial and knowledgeable gentleman. My questions were answered, changes and corrections made on the spot in a helpful and professional manner. Kudos to management for Mr R Boies, who took the time to make this a pleasant and efficient experience.”

6550 Rock Spring Dr #300, Bethesda“Will Mitchell and the team at First Savings Mortgage are basically like a team of wizards. What is a group of wizards called again? A coven? A Hogwartz? Basically, JK Rowling should write another book entitled: "Harry Potter and the easiest mortgage ever executed" I'm telling you, the first time I bought a house I dealt with another mortgage company (which I... obviously didn't use again). Why did I not work with them again? Well... basically I put in an offer on a home, it gets accepted, then we'll just call him "Zack" - Zack gives me an estimate of how much money I'll need to close on the home. Then a week later that amount increases by a couple of grand. Then a week later the amount increases by several grand. And I'm like... dude... what is happening?! My breathing room right now is about equal to those little air pipes they used to use in coffins in case someone gets buried alive. The day of closing finally comes along weeks later and I put down every shiny cent to my name to close on my first home. I barely made it. Now comes along Will with his mortgage wand for my second home, yeah the interest rate core of that wand is a little thicker, and yeah the closing cost wood it's made out of is a little more expensive cause it's a townhome and not a condo. But man o man, not only did the estimated cost to close not go up during that closing process, it went DOWN. Yes DOWN. AND Will and his team (The Order of the mortgage) we're able to get everything approved and finalized within... jeez... I think it was 12 days. Will literally works like a boss. He's available at pretty much all times. He always took my calls, he always informed me of any changes. He was super responsive, he was on top of everything. I mean... he is professional and shows not a sense of urgency, but a glut of urgency. His team was also very responsive and organized with all the paperwork we had to do. I don't know if you've ever bought a home before, but it can be very stressful. For usually weeks you're balancing getting paperwork to the mortgage lender, paperwork to the real estate agent, going over paperwork from the seller's real estate agent, you inevitably have a billion questions even if you've done it before cause it's just a whole process and every home purchase is different. It's basically like a part time job for a month buying a home. This home purchase was accelerated cause we were trying to make a very aggressive and appealing offer to a home where we KNEW we would have competition during the initial height of home buying season. I just can't say enough about Will. It also didn't hurt that Will knows my real estate agent Kris Nelson and has a good working relationship with him. Just such a solid solid team. Oh... did I mention that NOT JUST the closing costs were down, but my monthly mortgage payment went down as well! Now, this isn't gonna happen with every transaction - so don't go in there expecting it. But, I will say that if there's anyone who can make it happen, it's Will and his team over there. Early on in the process another mortgage company called me and tried to get me to switch over to use them for the mortgage. They must have gotten my info when my credit was pulled. I went back to Will and basically presented their offer to see if Will could beat it. Will pointed out A NUMBER of incorrect items on their offer and basically explained to me that it would actually end up being more in the end cause they under estimated on a few items and I basically would get "Zacked" again. And honestly, it's because of Will's firsthand and deep knowledge of real estate transactions in this area. So... I know this goes without saying by now... but I'll put it here in writing. If you're looking for a well trained wizard of mortgage lending, winner of the tri-wizard lending tournament, professor of magic mortgage history, and leader of the ministry of mortgage... just go with Will.

The representative was very pleasant and understood quickly; she deposited the check and gave me a receipt. While I was awaiting the receipt, I heard another rep very patiently talking to a customer who wanted to cash out some funds. It was explained to him that Fidelity wasn't a bank with cash on hand, and she gave him a number of ways he could get his money in cash. She did not get impatient but explained very well his options. I was favorably impressed.”

What I really enjoyed about working with Ben was his desire to learn as much as possible about my background. This allowed Ben provide product options that made the most sense for my family. After he learned about my background he performed a detailed analysis and he gave me the time (without pressure) to decide. I would highly recommend Ben for his life planning services.”

“Recommend Equity Planning, have been using them over ten years. Marc was able to guide me to the right term life insurance, and the peace of mind that goes with it. Marc has full breadth of understanding of what is in the marketplace. Most people need insurance as part of a financial plan, to insure insurability. Nice to have a "bricks and mortar" store in the form of Equity Planning Inc., they're there "after the sale" to provide stellar service. Might be tempting to shop online for insurance, but it's better to have a knowledgeable, trustworthy person like Marc at your side. I have EPI's business card with my important papers. I'm confident that they will be able to assist my family.”
