  • We worked with Greg from Advanced Mortgage Solutions to secure our first home loan, and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our application wasn’t straightforward, but Greg handled it with professionalism, positivity, and great communication throughout. He was approachable, realistic about what to expect, and had a real “can-do” attitude that helped get everything across the line under tight timeframes. We’re so grateful for his help and would highly recommend him and the team!
