    Working with Del and his staff made the mortgage process of buying my new home easy! Communication was great right from the start and I received regular updates right up until closing. Del was very good at explaining things and making sure I understood. I recommend Del and Ruoff to anyone buying a new home!

    Del and Jimmy were extremely kind hearted and excellent to work with. My husband and I knew it would be a difficult road for our mortgage due to our credit situation, but we never felt that from these guys. They just explained what they needed us to do and what they would do to get things accomplished. We had our mortgage in 30 days. I called Del Lekan my Mortgage Ambassador.

    My loan officer Del Lekan was very professional. He explained everything to me in detail. If there was something that I didn't understand he made certain that I did. Just a wonderful experience. Highly recommend!!!

    Everything went as smoothly as possible with the mortgage aspect of our purchase. Del and the team were very easy to communicate with and worked to get me a great rate for being a teacher which was much below current standard rates. The website was easy to navigate and upload needed information.

    Del was absolutely incredible to work with. This was my 2nd home purchase, but with a 10 year difference between, I was shocked how much easier this process was compared to my first. Del was with me every step of the way, from adjusting my pre approval letter quickly when I spontaneously upped my budget and turned around with an offer, to talking me through every document I signed, I had him as my guide. I never felt pressured or influenced, but rather educated and guided. It is with my highest recommendation to partner with Del and/or anyone at Ruoff mortgage for your purchasing needs!
