“Plain and simple, Benjamin Lee is the nicest person and the best loan officer at his service. We had a very bumpy road during our entire Business renovation process, due to circumstances out of funds. Mr Ben stayed on top of all parties to make sure everything stayed on track in order to meet our tight deadline to close our loan. We appreciate everything he did for us and we highly recommend him and his loan company to anyone looking to obtain financing. Thanks again Mr Ben.
