I’d like to recommend Spartan Mortgage to anyone seeking a residential mortgage, refi, or equity loan.  Paul Messina is a delight to work with.  He’s immediately responsive to every inquiry, no matter how trivial.  Always cheerful and a great communicator, taking care to explain every detail of the transaction.  For example, I asked an obscure question about warranty deeds and within minutes he emailed the pertinent official FHA/HUD requirements.  If your situation is challenging, as mine was, he’ll go the extra mile to make it happen.  Although Paul’s office is in another city, he worked seamlessly with my local title attorney and the closing went smoothly.  Should I need finance services in future, he’ll be the one I call.

Paul Messina of Spartan Mortgage provided excellent service and was able to provide a substantially lower interest rate with my refinance.  The process was seamless and easy.  I would recommend him and Spartan Mortgage and would use him for any future mortgages.
