Sean and his team at Metroplex are the best. They are knowledgeable, professional and the customer service is outstanding. From my first call to closing we knew we were working with an organization that cares about their customers. If we had questions our calls were returned within a couple of hours. From Sean, Elizabeth, Cheryl and David, they slways went the extra mile for us. From pre-approval to closing was a very positive experience. If you want the best, go with Metroplex, you will be in good hands. They are the best! I recommend them to family, friends and even to the sellers agent of our home. Thank you Metroplex!

They don’t follow up with people! Give them all documents needed, They run your credit make your score go down and Elizabeth never returns a phone call . Very poor ! Go to somebody that cares and is willing to help and answers all questions. Do your homework before just going to any mortgage company.

The people at Metroplex are amazing. I never thought that I would be able to own a home, but here I sit in my new home. I'm not good with legal speak and sometimes need things explained and they always took the time to help me understand. They will walk you through every step. I can't thank them enough.

Sean and his team exceeded my expectations. They were a wonderful group to work with, keeping me updated every step of the way. A special thanks to MEREDITH BARTH! She was fabulous, kept me in the loop, and went above and beyond to assist in my lending and closing process. I would definitely recommend this company to all of my friends and family. A great team!

This is my third time working with Sean and Metroplex. First as a first time home buyer, then purchasing a new home and more recently for a refinance. Every experience was smooth and virtually stress free. The whole staff really make an effort to get to know you and make it a personal experience. I would use them again in the future!!!

Sean and his team are by far the best mortgage company you could ever use. As a first time home buyer I was weary about a mortgage company to use and excepted some issues throughout the process. Sean made the process as easy and streamline as possible. His team worked tirelessly to meet a 4 week dead line to close. They worked with my schedule and answered every question I had as soon as I asked. I would go through Metroplex again, and highly recommended this company for any and all home buyers. They are sure to take care of you and go above and beyond all of your expectations. Thank you for everything!

Everyone at Metroplex was completely amazing right from the start. They handled my pre-qualification to the closing. They were always available to answer any questions that i might have and take care of any concerns that came up. Sean was always available to communicate with loan questions. Everyone at Metroplex treated you like family that actually cared and not like another loan application. Because of our unique situation with the storm Sean and his team went into overdrive to get our loan finalized. Our closing was much earlier than anticipated thanks to the team at Metroplex. I cant imagine this would have happened with any other loan company. I would highly recommend anyone to contact Metroplpex if you are planning on buying a house. I cannot thank them enough for everything.

Before looking for homes on the market, we first worked with the Pre-qualification Manager, Elizabeth, to determine our financial status and loan amount, establishing if moving was a feasible option. This process was easy and stress free and actually enjoyable since Elizabeth is so kind. Chatting with Sean was always a delight. He is very knowledgeable, explanatory, and friendly. The team always follow-ups conversations with a detailed email of items discussed and any needed tasks to be done, which was very beneficial! Miranda in Loan Support was just that - very supportive through the entire process - and Cheryl, Loan Processor, always followed through with our questions and concerns. Reflecting on the entire process, we were stressed by closing time but the team kept reassuring us that there was no need and they were correct! We are enjoying our home thanks to the excellent team at Metroplex!

This is our second time working with Sean and Metroplex. The first was a purchase and last month a refinance, he went over and above to make sure we knew exactly what was going on at all times. The office staff was knowledgeable and very prompt to return a call or email. I would definitely recommend Sean to anyone needing a lender.

Sean Stephens, Metrolplex is, in my opinion, a top shelf organization. From pre-approval to closing in less than five weeks, now who could ask for better service? The Metroplex Team answered every question and concern I had. Their coaching and advice was spot on. Even when I was less then receptive. Thank you Sean and Metroplex team. You helped put my mind at ease through the entire process. Anyone looking for help or advice, call Metroplex.

I wish I could give Metroplex more than 5 stars. They have been nothing but a dream. They have so much passion for what they do. Everything was easy to understand, they answer every question so thoroughly, and love their job. I was so impressed that I recieved a congratulations call from the company after closing. It was such a personal touch and made me so happy. Could not recommend Sean and his team with any more confidence than now. Great Job Metroplex
