Closed refinance loan. Enola, PA
We decided to take advantage of the low mortgage rates. I shopped around with some of our local banks. Not only did it take them a couple of days to get back to me, but their rates were also very high for a jumbo loan. I found zillow.com on the Internet and I found the phone number for Christopher Jones. It was 7 p.m. when I called and left a message. I received a call back in 10 minutes. I told Chris my goal and our jumbo loan for our home. He e-mailed me an application and the list of all of the documents he needed. He worked with me throughout the whole process, and there were some days that he would call me 5 or 6 times. With Chris’s perseverance we were able to refinance our home at a 3.75% jumbo mortgage rate within 45 days. Chris made the impossible possible. I would recommend Chris Jones to my relatives, friends, and anyone who wants to buy a home or refinance their mortgage. Chris’s drive showed how much he cares about his clients and loves his job. I will definitely work with Chris again in the future.…More Less

Closed purchase loan.
I first found out about this gentleman through a Zillow review and decided to embark on this leap of faith. It was one of my best decisions ever. I filled out the Zillow contact form late at night and received a phone call from Chris first thing the following morning. Right off the bat he was friendly, knowledgeable, respectful. He asked all the right questions and within an hour of that conversation already had a pre-approval letter sent to me. He followed through every step of the way, explaining every detail of a very laborious process. Unlike our previous home buying experiences (pre market collapse) this was a very demanding, invasive and intrusive process. I joked with Chris at one point that I expected they would be asking for my parents' marriage licenses next. However, because of his skill, tact, and guidance even this process was tolerable. He was always available, communicated every step of the way with us and made sure everything went without a hitch.

Without any doubt I would use Chris again for any house financing needs I may have.…More Less

Chris was very responsive through the whole process. He was always available and helped make the process easy. Either by phone, Email, cell phone, Chris responded. I appreciated the alert he gave me when he saw rates moving up.

"Chris went above and beyond the call of duty to help us get through some hurdles presented by our line-of-credit lender. He fully explained options and worked with us to make sure we got the best rate possible. You'd never guess this a low fee lender given the level of service and attention to our deal. I highly recommend working with Chris and Wintrust. After many re-financing's, this was the best broker I've ever worked with."

"I think you did an awesome job with the time period you had to work with. You were very prompt with everything that was requested of you. I especially liked how you sent status updates on every stage of the loan process. I will definately refer clients to you in the future and highly recommend you to anyone looking to buy or refinance their home. Thank you."

"Thanks for your help! I had a lot of nay sayers regarding obtaining a mortgage over the internet from an out of state firm.

They were wrong. It was a pleasure doing business with you"

"I got a really great deal on the interest rate and fees, and got great service as well... I couldn't have asked for better service."

Jennifer B,
Royal Oak, MI
Very helpful and responsive. Even my realtor commented how easy it was to work with Chris.

James B.,
Canal Fulton, Ohio




I closed with Chris and our transaction was very smooth and painless. He completed everything just as he said he would. There were absolutely no surprises and he explained everything that I was concerned with. He even went as far as answering questions and locking my rate on his vacation. Bottom line: If you want the job done right with no surprises, I would give Chris a call.
