Dee Dee was the most wonderful person to work with, from our initial pre-approval through closing, she was a ray of sunshine in a home buying process that's quite stressful in general. My wife & I enjoyed Wintrust's online system and found it quite streamlined while Dee Dee filled- in any gaps with nearly immediate response time to our many questions along the way. Thank you so much, Dee Dee, you're a blessing!!!

I consider Dee Dee to be the "Poster Child" of what a Senior Loan Office should be. She possesses all of the skills, talent and expertise that are required not only for the Senior Position she currently holds but also for her genuine concern for the client. She has always been very personable yet professional in every aspect of our communications. She always goes the extra mile to meet and exceed my expectations. If I were the President and CEO of Wintrust I would be very concerned about my position with Dee Dee around. She is the very best!!!! Regards, Dave Banas

I was very appreciative of the time Dee Dee put in to walk through the mortgage process, as well as the steps leading up to closing. She was very patient and took the time to help answer any questions or concerns I had throughout the way. She also attended the closing in person to help answer any questions or concerns that may have arose, while also being there to see the entire process through.

Dee Dee was INCREDIBLE! I had a unique situation and was denied by another company. I choose Wintrust mainly because they’re my local bank, and I was lucky enough to work with Dee Dee. She listened to my situation, helped me prepare the proper paperwork and I am now settling into my perfect home.

, Loan Officer: Dee Dee Palmer Sweetwood

Dee Dee made this entire process so simple from the very start; from taking care of any items she could on her own to explaining every step of the process and what was required from me. She answered all questions quickly and there wasn't a single moment I felt like I didn't know or understand what was going on. She made herself available through phone, text and email from the beginning which made it very easy to get ahold of her when I had questions or when we needed to go over numbers. I couldn't imagine going through this process without her.
