Reviews for April Platner
The most stressful event of my life
The 2 star rating is because we actually closed on time despite our loan nearly falling apart towards the end and had some miracle workers above April who fixed the problem. I could write probably a 2 page paper describing the events that transpired with our loan but I'll keep this short; no one should ever fear they might not get their house 3 days before closing then fear again a day before closing because of the way she handles loans. We caught her in a very big lie and found out a day before closing what she did with our loan, the entire process up until the week of closing was smooth with some bumps but overall pleasant until the very end when we had to practically wrestle for our 1003 forms that we were told we could see "tomorrow" or "tonight" and were being told that a week prior then the last day told they'll be at the closing table. Not once did we actually get to see them and found a massive problem less then 24 hours before signing because we had to get our realtor on it and find out why we still don't have them. In the end the problem was solved by the people above April but we had to sit at the signing table nearly 4 hours waiting on documents and approvals. A very stressful string of events days before close that had my partner nearly in tears, again the problem was fixed and we're very happy with the outcome but all could of been avoided had our lender been honest at the start and could of taken our business elsewhere.
Derek's Tip: First time home buyers beware. Have everything in writing (i.e text messages), every conversation and agreement

So thankful!
April and the rest of the staff at FBC made this process so simple! I never thought that my husband and I would be able to buy a home at age 22! They worked with us and the entire process took less than two months from start to finish. It was amazing and I would recommend them to anyone! Thanks April!!

Smooth like Butter
From the very beginning, April kept us informed of what was coming before it happened so that nothing was a surprise! Our closing was smooth due in large part to the great team from FBC!
Joshua's Tip: Get info up front about what needs to be turned in.

April Platner as well as FBC mortgage were absolutely amazing to work with! They handle our loan process smoothly and quickly, answered any and ALL questions at the drop of a hat, made sure we were aware of every step being taken every single day during our loan process up to closing. All around a great experience being able to find and purchase our home with FBC’s April Platner’s help! We have already recommended them to several family and friends in the market and will continue to do so!

Redundancy
Kept getting requests for the same info over and over. Extremely intrusive when it came to my mother’s financial info (she gifted me money toward the loan)

Platner takes the cake!
I have had the pleasure of working with April Platner on more than one occasion, and I have to say I wouldn't do it any other way! As a busy mom, it is such a relief to have someone working for you, ironing out the details, and holding your hand through the process when necessary. She is extremely professional, and at the same time relatable. I feel like I have made a friend! When the time comes and we purchase another home, we will no doubt use April for all of our loan needs!
