Ken Harris Testimonial

I had no idea how good a relationship with a mortgage banker could be and what a difference it makes. Chicago Bancorp deserves the highest form of praise that any service business can achieve. That is, Chicago Bancorp makes it easy to do business.

From beginning to end, the bankers and associates approached my mortgage transaction with a spirit of partnership I didn’t even know was available. They were there every step of the way. I am not easily impressed, but when it comes to home mortgage loans, the team at Chicago Bancorp is so much better than the alternative, it is like they aren’t even playing the same game.

Thank you for the excellent, thorough service. I recommend Chicago Bancorp to anyone who is looking for a mortgage.”

Chicago Bancorp is a Customer’s Best Friend!

From the office of Ted Hartley

Dear Steve:

I wanted to drop you a quick note to express my thanks for the bank’s help in closing my recent refinancing. The economic lending climate has certainly changed over the last few years and your team did a great job of coaching me through the refinancing process and alerting me to the new rules and regulations. The level of customer service and expertise were clearly top notch. While I probably could have offered my business to a number of banks (to bid on), I continue to rely on Chicago Bancorp, you, and your team.

Please extend my thanks to Kelly. She knew her way through the process, was ultra-responsive and gave us a level of comfort that we were being taken care of with nothing missed. You have my business and referrals always. I cannot tell you how much of an enjoyable experience it was dealing with the Bank.

Sincerely,

Ted Hartley

I wanted to thank you and your fine staff for helping me refinance my home. As you know, because I have a large mortgage and have never missed a payment, there are no government sponsored programs to help me. That is precisely why I turned to Chicago Bancorp. You were able to put together a refinance package that allowed me to take advantage of the current low interest rates without junk fees or unnecessary “out of pocket” expenses that exceed my budget. Your banker “Nick Taylor, in particular, deserves a lot of credit for structuring a great financial solution. He was professional, affable, informed and available to me every step of the way. I would highly recommend him to any of my patients, friends or business associates.

Again, Steve thanks so much for your help. I look forward to working with you and your staff in the future.

I am not sure of who to email regarding our mortgage Banker and our EXCELLENT service that we received from your company. My Fiance and were first time home buyers and we were referred to your company by a friend of a friend. Our expectations were met and far exceeded with Vito. We heard horror story after horror story of the home buying process and all of the details along with it but we never experienced anything of the sort. Vito was very professional and on top of everything from start to finish. We will recommend your company and Vito to all of our friends that are interested in purchasing a home.

Sincerely,
Shawn and Rachel

I wanted to use the convenience of the Internet and to apply online, but I was afraid to entrust the most important investment in my life to a ‘call center’ employee. My mortgage banker was extremely responsive and EXPERIENCED. The process went very smoothly. I’ll recommend you to my close friends

Having been a client of Chicago Bancorp through four recent transactions there has never been a time when your professionalism and dedication to client service have not far exceeded my expectations.
