He made everything clear and smooth, and I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable and personalized home financing support.

Steve and Rachel are very upfront about things and I feel like for most homeowners the mortgage process needs people they can trust. I trust Steve, Rachel, and Wintrust as cliche as that sounds but there is just too much information beyond the knowledge of the common person to process and you need the help of experts

Steve Smith is a really nice person. I wasn’t completely understanding the whole loan process, but I do not think that is Steve’s fault. I could have definitely asked more questions. Overall I enjoyed my experience

I'm a homeowner!! This would not have been possible without the guidance and sheer expertise from Steve Smith. He was so patient with all of my questions and made the lending process a stress-free experience. I went from feeling insecure about my first-time buyer profile to feeling confident about my decision making. Big thanks to Steve and the team at Wintrust!

Steve and Rachel did an awesome job of working through a tight deadline from offer to closing by the end of the year! Much appreciation to them for working through this over the end of year holidays!
