Bob Huster is excellent! The guy is on top of his game, returns phone calls and answers emails almost immediately. Bob doesn’t let anything fall through the cracks, and keeps the process moving along quickly. I can’t say enough good things about working with Bob Huster!!!

I had a great experience with Bob. He was knowledgeable and efficient. He provided me with explanations of certain things that I didn't understand. He was extremely helpful in getting things together so I could close in 30 days.

I've had a few bad experiences with lenders in the past. I met Bob about 7 years ago and we have done several loans through him since that time. He is always quick to address any concerns you will have and helps make the process smooth. Highly recommend!
