Our loan officer was very honest with the whole process. He helped us to make an informed decision rather to sell and buy a new house or to refinance. He helped talk us through what will be our best option to do? He did not sugarcoat anything and was forthcoming with all information that would be needed. Our loan documents were very accurate. Especially when it came down to closing, they matched. There was no surprises even up to the closing. Lavonte and Vanessa was very available to answer any questions. They did not make us feel like a burden. They wanted to make sure that we had everything that we needed all the way down to closin. Even called after closing to make sure that we felt great in our decision and to let us know that they were always here if we need them.

My loan officer Lavonte went above and beyond to be highly communicative, highly accessible, and incredibly friendly. This was a For Sale By Owner sale, which I had never done before. Lavonte made the process easier than my previous traditional sales I've done in the past. I'll recommend him by name for as long as he's in the business. The Ruoff Loan Butler web app was amazing too.

Lavonte made our experience seamless. He answered every call, question, and helped us through the process with ease. We were impressed with his pristine communication and ability to work swiftly while under time constraints. This has been our best buying exeprience out of several. This purchase would have been far more difficult without his assistance due to the circumstances of our move. We look forward to using him in the future. Bravo, Lavonte!

Second time working with Ruoff and in both instances I have been completely satisfied. This one took a little longer, but that's all on me. Lavonte and the rest of the team were great. Highly recommend Ruoff!! Thanks to all!!

Lavonte was always quick to answer questions, and provide information or let me know what was needed from me. He and Vanessa made the process as seamless and stress free as possible. Which was exceptionally impressive considering he had a newborn at home and was balancing that too.

It was a pleasure working with Lavonte! He helped us understand everything we were signing, understood our needs, and advocated for us as needed. His flexibility in answering any questions we had as first-time home buyers was incredibly helpful, and never left us feeling like there was a silly question. We would recommend him again and again!
