Rick is very professional, yet he talks to you as if you are an old friend. His work ethic is excellent and my husband and I had a great experience with him and his employees. This company is compassionate about their customers and constantly thrive to meet your needs. I wish I had known about Loandepot years ago. Best lenders ever!

We started off with someone else, somewhere else. We were pre-approved, made an offer that was accepted and happily on our way to owning a new house. Immediately after the offer, things started to change. This other place kept piling on costs until I could not afford the loan and I didn't want to. That is when a friend recommended I call Rick DeGroff. He is in WV and I was buying a house in Cincinnati which is why it had not occurred to me to ask him first. (Full disclosure, I met him once before years ago and he is the only person in my circle of acquaintances that I know in this line of work.) So, three weeks before closing I drop all of this in his lap. My credit score had dropped just enough that I didn't automatically get approved for a VA loan, unlike other people he did not just accept the decline. Rick had my loan application taken to the underwriters and they approved it. Neither my real estate agent nor the listing agent thought it would get done in a timely fashion, but Rick proved them wrong. He helped negotiate a new closing date, then we closed a week earlier than that. VA mortgage from first phone call to closing took 5 weeks and part of that was waiting for the VA appraisal to come back. If you want someone on your side through the sometimes crazy process of buying a house, call Rick DeGroff.

Rick was very professional, knowledgeable and extremely responsive in assisting us and answering every question we had explaining in much detail. This was our first home purchase and we couldn't have been more pleased at how well and easy he and his team made the process for my wife and I. Rick, thank you again!!

Rick is terrific. We had an expedited closing and Rick insured everything was ready to go on time. He was always accessible - he even completed our rate lock while on vacation. We had complete confidence in Rick and we were always informed about the necessary steps we needed to keep the process moving along. Thanks Rick!

Rick is very professional and knowledgeable about his job. He was helpful and informative. I would highly recommend his services. This is my third home I've purchased and this was by far the easiest transaction I've ever made with buying a home.

Great experience! Rick did a great job. Would highly recommend his expertise! Rick was always upbeat and positive even though we were skeptical about the many underwriter Inquiries. Rick DeGroff is the epitome of "mr. positive ". Would recommend him anytime.
