  Jeff is the best. He makes the entire process pleasant and seamless while delivering a great home loan designed for your individual needs. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a lender with access to great rates and programs to fit any need. He is knowledgeable, experienced and will guide you through the process from start to finish.

  Jeff and his team are top notch. He was able to simultaneously structure three deals that allowed us to get to our end goal of refinancing two properties and acquiring a third property. A year later, Jeff and his team helped our son and his wife purchase their first home. I recommend Jeff and his team to everyone.

  We have worked with the folks at First Rate lending over several years and on several loans. In our experience these folks go above and beyond with their service. When dealing with the refinancing of a home or the processing of a loan there can be almost daily contact with your loan company. Through the many dealings and interactions we have had with First Rate Lending, they have became more like trusted Friends or Family. Should you chose to use First Rate Lending, you will be in competent and caring hands.

  Jeff Kutnick and his team at First Rate Lending were wonderful to work with. They helped me complete my refi with incredibly low rates and in such an effective and efficient manner. Jeff is always so professional and sincere in how he communicates and put my mind at ease as I went through this process. His consultative nature gives you total peace of mind knowing that your business is in the hands of a true professional. 100% recommend 👍

  I went to Jeff a couple times looking for a loan. I didn’t end up going with him for the first one but because my experience with him was so positive I went back as soon as I started looking for a loan again. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone. He is knowledgeable, honest and willing to explain whatever you have questions on. A superb experience.

  Jeff and his staff are "First Rate". He has been available over the years to answer any and every question I have asked and is a great wealth of knowledge. He has been so helpful to me and I very much appreciate his time, patience and knowledge professionally and personally. I would and have recommended him to friends and family. Please speak with him before going with another company regarding your financing needs.

  I am so happy that I was referred to Jeff Kutnick at First Rate Lending for my real estate purchase loan needs. The current real estate market is so competitive right now and Jeff provided incredible help to me so that I could successfully compete for the home I wanted. The whole team was always available and incredibly helpful and informative. The interest rates and terms at First Rate Lending were far better than other lenders I researched. I wholeheartedly recommend Jeff Kutnick and First Rate Lending.

  Jeff and his team are who we refer our clients to when starting the home buying process. I know as an agent that when Jeff tells the client that they qualify, that when it is time to close and complete their purchase, that home loan will in fact close. Jeff is extremely knowledgeable and understands the ins and outs of home loans and is who I also trust to handle my personal home loan needs. I not only refer my clients to Jeff, I am a client of Jeff's as well. I trust him with my home and my clients and so should you.

  Jeff and his team over at First Rate are a dream to work with. They help to simplify every step of the process and they make you feel as though your needs are their number 1 priority. Ill be going to First Rate for all my lending needs and advise anyone else to do the same!

  I have worked with Jeff Kutnick & First Rate Lending twice. Both experiences were 5 star. The first time he helped me navigate a financial issue & a HELOC. The second time he got me a great mortgage rate & lowered my house payment by $400.00 a month. I highly recommend this business. I would not trust my mortgage to anyone else. Quality, efficient staff.
