John Shea and his team are excellent. My fiancée and I were first-time homebuyers who didn’t really know where to start. I searched online for how to begin the pre-approval process and found the first step was finding a lender with great reviews. Luckily, I came across John and decided to give him a call.From our first conversation to shaking his hand at the closing table, John and his team were knowledgeable, responsive, and transparent every step of the way. He took the time to schedule video calls to walk us through the process, answer our questions, and make sure we felt comfortable.When we found a house we loved, John made sure everything was in place so we could move quickly. Thanks to the hard work of our real estate agent, John, and his team, our offer on our dream home was accepted.Buying our first home felt impossible, but John and his team streamlined the process and took much of the stress out of it. I would recommend them without hesitation.

If you're a Veteran looking to use your VA home loan to purchase a home, John Shea and his team are the absolute best. As a first-time homebuyer with little experience in the process, I was nervous about what to expect. John and his team were incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and always available to answer every question I had. What I anticipated would be a stressful experience turned out to be remarkably smooth thanks to their organization and clear communication.The team worked very hard to save me as much money as possible and secure the lowest interest rate they could. The customer service I received was truly outstanding — I genuinely felt like they were rooting for my success just as much as I was. Because of John and his team, buying my first home has become a positive experience I’ll look back on fondly. I’m so grateful another Veteran recommended them to me.
