"I just purchased a new house after trying to get a loan from Chase Bank, but they couldn’t make it happen. I reached out to Loan Brook and spoke with Zevi, who made the process so easy. It was a pleasure working with him—highly recommended!"

Gayle E.

"I needed to get a loan of $1,700,000 to win the bid on a house. Within the ten day time limit, Zevi was able to secure this loan for me. He was amazing, and very resourceful. After the sale closed, Zevi immediately converted this loan to a traditional 30 year mortgage."
