What My Clients Say

by E. MitchellI was so surprised how easy this was. We never understood as much about mortgages as we do now.
by Janine S.I wanted to take a moment to write to you to let you know what an exceptional employee Carol Lloyd is. We had numerous obstacles to over come during my entire closing process and I pulled her in to every issue and she went above her job responsibilities to help me out with each one. Although, I had a bumpy ride, I had the confidence that once Carol got involved, it would get done. She didn’t only treat me as a customer, but a friend. She was genuinely concerned about my closing and worked around the clock to make it happen.

I trust her whole heartily, and will use her for all of my financing needs!

Thank you Carol for everything you have done for us, and we will be contacting you at the end of the year to do the VA loan.

Thanks again!
by J. LopezCarol, thank you so much for all your help. I thought it would be impossible for me to get anything done after our credit went bad. The rate was lower than what we had and we are paying out $1400 less each month. I hated calling mortgage people because I was always treated like scum and they talked down to me. I remember when I first got you on the phone, you were so patient and kind. So you know, we did get our roof fixed, expanded the kitchen, all the old bills were paid and Mark feels he has enough money from the cash out to keep him working during the tough winter. With the price of gas, he thought he would have to give up his trucking business. Our credit cards were at their limit because we were charging our gas. Not only that, we feel comfortable we can handle the big heating bills for our house too.. And Kim started college in August. We needed the extra money in the month. By the way, a friend got a kick out of the website name – billsaredrivingmecrazy.com. She said it took the words right out of her mouth.
by R. MooreWe weren't able to refinance at first and we are greatful Carol stayed in contact with us & we could do our loan later. Saved us a bundle. The best service and follow up.
by Joseph & Nancy L.Recently my husband and I refinanced our mortgage with your company. . . Carol has been absolutely fabulous to work with! Carol’s expert advice and guidance has helped us so many times. . . . we can’t thank her enough for all she has done for us. We have referred friends and neighbors to Carol and likewise they have been equally grateful.

Having worked with several people in our lives, we rarely have had the opportunity to find someone as honest and sincere. . . We certainly will continue to refer people to your company, knowing they will definitely be completely satisfied.

Truly Grateful and Blessed
by Robert L.We just purchased our first house and it has been a very exciting yet scary and overwhelming time. We had no idea about everything involved in purchasing a house and especially in obtaining a mortgage. But Carol made it so easy and clear for us, prompting us when we needed prompting and comforting us when we needed reassurance. I speant numerous times on the phone with her as she would very patiently explain the whole process to me and put me at ease when I was having anxiety about all the numbers. She is such a wonderful person to talk to and made herself accessible for us at any time of the day or evening.

It was so wonderful that she came to our closing. . .

I can truly say she has been a God-send for us through this whole process. I will always recommend her to anyone needing a mortgage. . .
by L. DennisForthcoming with all info. No surprises.
by Pat M.I have known Carol for many years. She helped three times with mortgages and re-fi's, and I have to say, she is the most professional, knowledgeable, honest and compassionate person I have known in this business. As a consumer, I always 'shop around' and do some homework, then come back to Carol. I feel safe, if you will, dealing with her. She is up on the latest, open and honest with her feedback, and extremely pleasant to work with. She meets promise dates, is always available for my questions, and presents all scenarios, then we discuss pros and cons for me personally. There's no hard sell or smoke and mirrors like some other companies I have inquired with.

Carol has touted the First Hallmark approach, and tells me that from the top down your company has great operating principles. I can tell you they are definitely obvious at the customer level. And the group that supports Carol is sharp and on top of things also. The title company was a pleasure to deal with. Andy Wood met us on time in the Somerset office and made it a breeze to go through the stack of closing paperwork.

In these financial times when things are constantly changing, it is a pleasure knowing a company exists with professionals in key roles that make an often difficult and emotional process less so. You have a keeper in Carol. She is the reason I keep coming back and referring others to First Hallmark. Thank you for your direction and guidance over a great company.
by Julia W.Exceptional service.
by Jason K.Great with the details. Carol was excellent at filling in so much detail about purchasing my first home that I never heard before. Can't imagine doing business with anyone else. My wife thanks you even more. Finally, we know what and who Fannie Mae is. Thank u Carol‎

by Peter G.Things went extremely well‎‎. I expect worse than the worse when looking for a mortgage. People always come across as used car dealers trying to make a buck on my back or ambulance chasers. After seeing the info on Carol's blog, I called and I could tell things would be different right from the start. And it was. She was honest and knew what was going on and what to do with our confusing situation. Worth taking the time to write a review.‎
by H. BraumanDear Mr. Viscariello,

I just refinanced my mortgage with C. Lloyd, the second time in 2 years. Naturally, I shopped for interests rates and despite the fact that Bank of America offered a marginally better rate I decided to close with First Hallmark as Carol guided me professionally, competently and patiently through this process. She offered outstanding customer service. I felt she can be trusted and that in the end was more important to me than a fraction of a point in interest.

Bank America on the other hand has representatives that come across unprofessional, unfriendly and simply act like telemarketers that try to sell a vacuum cleaner.

Bank of America does not understand that refinancing from a customer’s perspective is not a commodity deal but a stressful experience where trust plays a paramount role in deciding who to do business with. I will make sure to recommend Carol to my friends and family.

Your very satisfied customer. . .
by Stacy G.Carol cared about me and my loan as if it were her own. Thank you so much!
