I've worked with Dana on several properties now and always have a top notch experience. My financial situation was slightly more complicated than some and Dana and the Colorado Lending Team helped me get an incredible rate on a great home. They were super communicative and made the process seamless for me. Will definitely use them again for future purposes!
