Mark is incredible, he works hard to provide a positive and understandable experience. He treated me as an individual, getting to know me, explaining anything I did not understand and the process involved. He is a knowledgeable loan agent and wonderful human being.

Very straight forward and to the point very helpful

Mark and his team have been very informative and patient with me thru this whole process. It was also very nice to hear that the realtor and the title company love to work with him as well. I usually need a lot of help with technology but the system they use was easy to navigate (after little direction),too. Communication with updates or needs was great thru out and able to close within the 30 days!

Great experience and service.

Mark was absolutely amazing start to finish. His communication was clear and frequent, and he worked quickly to get the loan closed in a timely manner. I will absolutely recommend Mark to those that need help with a mortgage

Mark did an outstanding job from explaining everything in great detail to being a great support system helping us every step of the way through the home buying process.

I would 1000% recommend him and will to everyone I know!

Mark Poehlmann and his team were so on top of things. The whole process went so smoothly. There were no unpleasant surprises. Everything was as expected.

After buying and selling three houses and dealing with multiple lenders, we can confidently say that Mark has been the best we’ve dealt with so far. He is responsive, prompt, and informative. I would and plan to recommend Mark to anyone purchasing real estate.

I am incredibly grateful for the support and guidance I received from Mark throughout my home-buying journey. Buying a home was overwhelming, but he made the entire process feel smooth and manageable with his knowledge, patience, and dedication. He was always extremely helpful, reliable, and responsive whenever I had questions or needed clarification. He took the time to explain every step, kept me informed, and made sure I felt confident in the decisions I was making. His professionalism, honesty, and genuine commitment to helping his clients truly stood out. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide me through such an important milestone. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a lender who is trustworthy, dependable, and truly cares about his clients. Thank you, Mark!

Mark is fantastic, always available at any time to answer questions or help us to understand the process. I would work with Mark and Wintrust again from my next home loan.

Mark and his team are the absolute best! He was available whenever I had questions and is always very good at explaining things when I got confused. Would recommend him to anyone, but especially first time home owners who need the extra support :)

He was patient, knowledgeable and very quick to respond.

Mark is the best we have dealt with in this being our 6th home purchase. He made the process as painless as it can be, always available, and came up with a very creative financing solution to close early on our new place. Mark worked closely with our real estate agent to coordinate behind the scenes to get the loan processed very timely. We highly recommend Mark.

Mark is awesome. Period. I could not be more satisfied with his level of commitment and communication in ensuring my success in buying my first home. His guidance helped me secure what I needed from Wintrust in ways that were really favorable and supportive of me and my situation. He's always available, super knowledgeable and honest. Really happy with my experience with Mark and Wintrust. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to purchase a home, and will definitely reach back out next time I'm in the market.

Mar was great to work with on this mortgage. He and David made it seem so seamless.

Excellant communication about the mortgage application process. I was guided through every step of purchasing process all the way through closing.

Mark listened to what I needed and made it happen! Wonderful experience with Mark and Wintrust. Would highly recommended as they catered to my needs and I didn’t feel like it was a generic template used for everyone.

Mark, is so knowledgeable in helping us to put together a mortgage package to fit our needs. He is always available to for follow-up or get advice. Top rated professional rep for your mortgage company. He knew when to engage our sales agent, in our case financial planner, get activity completed when required to get mortgage closed early..

Mark is by the best there is! He makes the process easy, keeps the customer well informed along the way and is extremely knowledgeable. I will absolutely be a life long customer.

Mark kept in constant communication and helped me every step of the way way beyond what I was expecting. He may buy my first home much easier and I’m so grateful for everything that he did. I feel like I got very lucky in this process to have such an organized and caring person to help!

Mark was friendly and I trusted him immediately. Extremely knowledgeable and the best in the industry!!!

Excellent experience. Mark always went the extra mile promptly and with an enthusiastic smile in his voice. Would do it again with him, no question.

Mark Poehlmann & Wintrust (including Heather Maoz & David Gaulke) have helped us to make our dream of owning a home, a reality! The process was straightforward, and any time any issue or question arose, Mark was quick to answer questions, and he provided me guidance to get my loan approved. I would gladly recommend all involved to anyone looking for a mortgage!

Great contact. Very thorough and fast

Amazing! Great communication and made the process simple and easy.

He’s fantastic and a great guy

He is the best. All members at Win trust guide guided me the whole way, and felt like friends. They will go above and beyond to give you more than you would even expect.

Mark was AMAZING. He was available all hours, super responsive. The timing of buying the home of incredibly tight and he worked his magic

Mark Poehlmann and his team were top notch. Mark did everything he could to make the process as smooth as possible and if any snags did arise, he was there to answer any questions and present options to make things work. He is a great mortgage advisor and an overall great guy. Mark will be my family's go-to mortgage advisor as long as he continues to work in the field!

As a professional (lawyer) who appreciates professionalism and high-quality client/customer service, I can say that Mark Poehlmann is as good as I've had experience with in the nearly 50 years of my professional career. Mark is the most responsive provider of professional services I've ever encountered. He earns one's confidence as a trusted advisor. He really knows the nuances of the mortgage business and process. It's almost sad that we closed on the purchase of the house yesterday, because now there won't be a reason to talk to Mark regularly.

Mark was responsive and a great partner throughout!

He was all over it. He listened and got me what I needed when I needed. He followed up to make sure everything was being handled and questions were being answered

Mark P. and his team were some of the best professionals I have worked with period. They were timely, and I truly felt cared for and that they had myself and my wife's best interests in mind as the assisted us through the home buying process.

Our experience with Mark was outstanding. Mark is very professional and on top of the mortgage market.

Mark P. attentiveness and availability.

Everyone involved kept me super updated

Mark Poelhmann did an amazing job from start to finish. A real professional. I was very fortunate Ashley referred him to me. From our first phone conversation, I was convinced I was in good hands. This was important to me as I was an out of state purchaser and Mark was familiar with local loan processing issues helping to facilitate the buying process.

I believe Mark Poehlmann was the key to the great experience. He responded quicker than we expected every time we reached out. He was thorough and guided us through the whole process. He was great at communicating and keeping us informed. As a business owner - I appreciate and value all of these things. On top of everything, he was personable and seemed to truly care about us as a customer. I have already recommended him to my daughter who is closing on her property next week.

We had a great experience with Mark Poehlmann. Moreover, our lawyer and the title company both commented on Mark’s professionalism and the ease of working with Wintrust.

As previously stated, Mark and his team were amazing, from start to finish, along with everyone else involved!

Mark did a great job being responsive and helping me with the multiple offers as well as all the questions I had through the closing and rate lock process.

The process was thorough and everything went well with the help of the processor.

Efficient follow ups and prompt communication

Mark was so easy to work with and listened to my fears and concerns. He is extremely caring and made the process as stress free as possible.

Mark goes above and beyond what is required of him and he made us feel so educated and cared for during the process.

This was our second home for us and since we have owned current home for over 20 years, we were initially a little intimidated by this process. Mark was great right from the start! He had a low-key get to know you- yet informative first conversation with us. From the first step to the very end, he was always there, providing information, answering our questions, really being on top of EVERYTHING and dealing with more complex issues, behind-the-scenes activities. He responded to our questions promptly and was sure we knew next steps. I really don't think he ever missed a beat! When we asked if we could close remotely as we were five hours away, he set up a notarizer no problem. I don't believe the closing would've happened at all would he not been so detailed with follow up, referring others to us as needed, including his assistant Heather, He definitely knows the business WELL -- AND has not forgotten the people skills matter too! Top notch experience with Mark & Wintrust Mortgage for sure!!

Easy to communicate with Mark, even on weekends with timely responses.

Mark was extremely helpful and available for questions

Mark and his team were AMAZING! Easy to work with, great communication, very supportive and hard working to ensure my mortgage was ready to close despite numerous issues from the seller/builder side.

Mark Poehlmann was excellent. His communication was fantastic, and he was willing to do a lot of communication by text which I prefer. He even spoke with me a couple of times while he was on vacation.

Mark was phenomenal!

Loan officer was always available for my questions and always willing to talk over the phone to explain any situation in detail. Mark Poehlmann gave me the necessary information for the immediate next steps in this process without overwhelming me.

Mark is kind, thorough, proactive and responsive. We would definitely work with him again.

Between Mark and Jamie they made the whole process easy!!!

Mark is terrific this is the 3rd loan we did with him

Being new to the home buying process I appreciated all the easy to understand explanations. Everyone made everything so easy and put my mind at ease anytime I had questions. And as someone who doesn’t always like phone calls, I enjoyed the process being done over text.

All the people we worked with were great!!!!! I will highly recommend them for anyone looking.

I worked with Mark once before when he was a lender somewhere else. I had such a good experience that I reached out again for this purchase with him. He's reliable, on the ball, fast to respond, available, knowledgeable, and I could go on. Even my real estate agent was incredibly impressed and will start referring him to clients.

Mark is outstanding. He is really good at what he does.

Mark and Heather were incredible with helping me through this process. Heather caught that the closing company only took cashiers checks from local banks, which was a close call since my bank is located over 2 hours away!

Mark is a genuine person always looking out for your best interest. It was our pleasure working with him and consider him a friend after this experience. He is knowledgeable, helpful, and always had the home owners best interest in mine.

Mark Poehlman made it a great experience for us. He made us feel he was invested and there for us. Most important was he is a very good / responsive communicator. Even on weekends. I thought the online tools / process was easy to use. Mark made himself available to make sure it was easy for us.

My wife and I were very new to this process. The level of help and knowledge Mark provided was extremely. What impressed me most was his level of care. We could tell Mark cared what was best for us and was willing to help at all hours of the day. Would recommend Mark to anyone looking for a mortgage. He made this experience enjoyable.

Mark is great to work with. He is extremely responsive and knowledgeable He follows up every step of the way I have never worked with such an exceptional loan officer

Mark and David were outstanding. Every part of the process was simple and the communication was top notch. I did not once have to worry about the financing portion of my home purchase. It was truly a great experience. Thank you!

Mark was so good to work with. He was very patient and communicated quickly any issues that needed to be resolved.

Mark Poehlmann is hands-down the most incredible lender we have ever worked with. He was available DAY AND NIGHT, and so responsive. He truly went above and beyond to be there for us through multiple home offers, never once losing patience, passion or follow-through for us. He was patient, organized, and such a clear and effective communicator through the entire process. Ive worked with many other lenders that are great in the beginning and then things get disorganized as underwriting progresses, and he blew all those people out of the water with his ability to get the deal through each step with ease. I never felt worried knowing he truly cared about our deal. He brings such a passion to his work, and is one-in-a-million. Thank you for your expertise and care, Mark!

I would not be in my new home today without the persistent help from Mark. He advocates for his clients and helped me every step of the way. He definitely went above and beyond. It means more than you will ever know to be in my new home. Thank you!

Mark was very personable and was available evenings and weekends when needed, that mean a lot!

Mark and one of his associates whose name I do not remember were great. The best thing I can say is, if I have to do this again I'd like to work with Mark. He is a very hard worker and very service oriented.

Mark was able to explain the process and requirements of getting our loan. He was available any time to respond to questions. Nights and weekends. The Sunday before our closing, he called and said to reach out to him with any last-minute questions. I did and he answered immediately and had the answer. Great guy and was always willing to help. His processor, David was also good to deal with.

Mark was AWESOME

Mark made the process super easy. I appreciated that he walked us through the pros and cons and was always available for a which phone call to answer our questions. He checked in on us throughout the process of finding a house and was encouraging.

Mark was always quick to respond and answered questions. He was extremely helpful and responsive

In my experience over the last decade, Mark is more customer-focused and knowledgeable than any other professional in his field. I will follow him and advise others to find him as long as I am in the market for a loan.

Working with Mark and David was amazing. Wintrust is lucky to have them for employees. I will recommend these two to friends and family

Mark was available by phone, text and email, and responded promptly to my questions and concerns.

Mark was both professional and personable, his work ethic and quick responses were most appreciated.

Mark was incredible. He helped me in So many ways through the process. I will use him again and again. When I didn’t have time he helped find a way. Best mortgage process I’ve ever had! I will recommend him across the board.

Mark did an amazing job helping my fiancé and I navigate the home buying process, something us first time home buyers really appreciated. He was just a text message or call away any time we needed him and he happily answered any questions we had. Mark made our first time home buying experience a breeze!

Some documentation that was originally requested turned out to be unnecessary and other easier option were available. Would have been nice to know all the options up front so we could choose the path of least resistance.

Mark was great and explaining information and communicated effectively with us.

My second refinance with Wintrust and both times went really smoothly

I was fortunate to have Mark Poelmann as my loan advisor. He made my first time homebuying a breeze! He was very reassuring and handled the bumps that the seller presented with ease. Mark and his team communicated everything effectively and in a way I could understand. Mark went above to call of duty to ensure closing went smoothly. He is an exceptional advisor and Wintrust is lucky to have him on the team!

Mark was very responsive, kind and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain anything I didn’t understand. He made the process easier.
