Jessica and the TEG team were extremely helpful in finding a home loan that would suit our needs. Not only was she knowledgeable, she also went above and beyond answering questions and emails after hours. We ended up doing a construction to perm loan. This being the first time my husband and I were building, we had so many questions. It was comforting to know that Jessica was able to answer our questions at any time. I would definitely recommend Jessica to anyone searching for a home loan!
Our experience was absolutely ideal. It was the kind of experience you hoped for when you apply for a mortgage. Jessica was available to answer our questions immediately and if she didn’t, someone was able to step in on days she was unavailable. We remarked that it’s amazing that, although we know that she has other customers, she made us feel like we were the only one and she could devote her full attention to us.
Phenomenal service working with TEGFCU and my loan officer, Jessica Schoen. They provided every bit of help I needed along the way and even got me a grant to help me save money on my mortgage.
Jessica and all of the associates involved in the mortgage process at TEGFCU have been amazing. We just refinanced last year and recently took out a home equity loan. In both instances, we had a personalized, streamlined experience, and we highly recommend using Jessica and her team at TEG.
