Customer Testimonials

Dan, Ricky, and Scott. These three have took all the “negative aspects” out of purchasing a home. Being a first time buyer I uncovered horror stories in my research of the process. Anytime a worry popped up they were always available to reassure me that those were the only stories. I have never came across a company that exemplifies such extraordinary customer service, care and compassion. First time buyers look no further, whether you’re unsure about which loan type suits you best, what you'll prequalify for, or what steps you need to take to get you in the house of your dreams. The word grateful seems to fall short of how appreciative I am to you guys. It is easy to see why you are reviewed so highly and hold such positive ratings online and in the community. Thank you all tremendously.

Norstar Mortgage is where it’s at! I have to say that this company has moved heaven and earth to make my home-buying experience not only simple, but very informative as well. I am a house buying newbie to the point where I was completely unfamiliar about literally every step of the process. I am originally from Puerto Rico, where the house buying process is much less complicated, so you can understand how the process quickly became overwhelming when you are receiving emails from 7 different places at the same time asking for 20 different things. The people at Norstar Mortgage (Dan Avanzato and his team) were all very informative and kind, but also very patient with me. The process of obtaining a loan was extremely daunting for multiple reasons, but the team at Norstar never made me feel frustrated or overwhelmed. They explained things thoroughly to me, made sure I was informed about the entire process, and answered any silly questions I had. They really did a stellar job. Take into consideration that I was shopping around for loans at a myriad of places, but none of them could match the rates, fees, service, or general niceness of the people from Norstar. I’m not sure which states they work in specifically or if they’re only PA based, but I can tell you that if you have the opportunity to do your business with Norstar, you should DEFINITELY consider it. You will not be sorry.

Dan/Ricky and the whole Norstar office are the epitome of a super star team. It is hard to find people in the "business world" that truly care about you and I can honestly say Dan and Ricky always have and always will take the extra step to ensure quality over quantity. From the first convo with Dan and Ricky, I felt comfort knowing they were in it to help me, not push me or pressure me, but help guide me to the best solution for me and my family. They not only met my expectations, they exceeded them with their superior customer service, attention to detail and hard work. In my line of work, I speak with mortgage lenders from all over the country and I would only recommend one to my friends and family, Norstar. A well-oiled machine of kind hearted, smart and well-informed mortgage professionals who care. Thank you for everything Norstar, we'll never forget everything you did for us. Have confidence with Norstar, they create lasting business relationships FOR LIFE!

Dan and the team made the process extremely easy to complete. They took all of the stress of working with banks away from us. They are always available for questions and are always on top of everything. Will certainly work with them in the future.

Home buying is a frustrating process. Dan and Ricky take all of the financial frustration out of it. They are completely hands on, always answer your calls and emails, are extremely knowledgeable and truly look out for the best interest of their customers. I would never work with anyone else for any mortgage or refinancing needs. I am extremely grateful for how easy and organized they made this process.

We worked with Dan and Ricky for our home purchase. They were very helpful in finding us the best lender and program for our extended settlement. They were always available and willing to help us understand the mortgage process. Their closing cost estimates were very accurate and they made sure that we are well-prepared on the day of settlement. They made the whole process stress-free and working with them was a great experience. We highly recommend them!

I enjoyed working with a broker who was local and willing to pick up the phone outside normal business hours. In the past I have worked directly with large banks and communication was sometimes a problem. Communication was never the case with Dan. Emails and phone calls were always returned or answered promptly. Each phase of the process was explained well.

Dan and the team (Ricky) were phenomenal to work with! They made what I thought would be impossible very much possible! The entire process was efficient, organized with no hidden strings or issues whatsoever. Rates were better than anyone else offered and the personal attention was priceless! I have and will continue to recommend Norstar to Mortgage to family and friends.
