  • Raquel Medina is an OUTSTANDING Mortgage Consultant! She has helped myself and my family with the financing and re-financing of ALL of our homes going back to 1997 to Present (approximately 7 different mortgages/home refinance). She is knowledgeable, experienced, and results oriented. Raquel was involved in all aspects of our mortgages/home refinance no matter how big or small! She was present at all of our closings to support and help us understand the process throughout its entirety. She has a positive “Can Do” attitude and no matter how large the task Raquel helped make our dreams come true! I highly recommend Raquel if you are looking for an accomplished, knowledgeable, and results oriented mortgage consultant.”

  • Raquel helped us refinancing our loan to a 15 year fixed. She was able to beat three other lenders and gave me a fantastic rate. She has a great attitude and strives to give you the best service and rate.

  • Raquel from day one was a pleasure to work with. I have heard horror stories from people on their closing, but it was a breeze with Raquel. Everything went so well that I could have closed on my home in 3 weeks from the start of the process, I had to hold off for the 4th week due to my preference.
