What Our Customers Say About Us


I must say Jennifer Brown with Neighborhood Mortgage helped me tremendously. I was moving through the legal stages of divorce. I needed to decide my future living arrangements. Unlike many mortgage companies, Jennifer took the time to help me figure out which was best option for me at this financial stage in my life. Buying again vs. Renting? down payments, monthly payments, staying within my monthly budget, and how long did I plan to stay in GA? So many variables went into this other than just getting prequalified, finding a place and moving on. Jennifer did not treat me as just another mortgage. In fact based on the information I provided it was not in my best interest to buy right away. I appreciated Ms. Brown’s honesty and hard work. She could have given me a loan and sent me on my way. However, we decided on other options and that is what makes her FAR ABOVE the rest. Thank you Jennifer and to Neighborhood Mortgage for the prompt responses, professionalism and most of all going above and beyond.

Jessica and Jennifer were great to work with. We went with a 21 day close and they both made sure that every aspect of the process was completed on time. They took the stress out of the closing process, highly recommend.

Melissa Haunson

Neighborhood Mortgage came highly recommended by a friend who had used them in the past. I shopped around in spite of the recommendation and found the rates at Neighborhood Mortgage to be the most attractive. Even though the office is located in Atlanta, I was able to secure my mortgage for my new home in Florida. Jennifer and the rest of the staff were a pleasure to deal with and I am very pleased with the end result.
