Jake Krabbe – Academy Mortgage Corporation

From the beginning all the experience seem to be all wonderful, we were almost too happy about the whole process. Our loan officer, Mike offered us the sky and stars and sounded like he knew what he was doing… well not, after dealing for about 2 months, between not getting the paperwork timely and them knowing what we were looking for– loan officer forgot to mention the restrictions or possible difficulties we could have buying a «condo» …which now researching outside, learn that the loan will be approved base on HOA financial stability. …but this never was mentioned.
1^st time going through home buying and not having a knowledgeable loan officer… well a dissaster! Jake and mike didnt not meet the high expectations that everyone else on the reviews talk about… Nevermind getting a loan from them!!!

Jake Krabbe and Ethan Pikoff couldn’t have made this purchase any easier. I truly appreciate their professional and courteous manner. I will recommend them to everyone I know. They did a great job!

I just recently purchased a home here in Phoenix, with many thanks to Brandon Arter on the Jake Krabbe team at Academy Mortgage. While I work in IT now, many years ago I was in the mortgage industry myself, having been a loan processor, notary, and even a loan officer for almost 10 years. Brandon at Academy was extremely professional and knowledgeable. From the starting pre-​qualification phase all the way to closing, he was communicative, honest, and very helpful. Not only did he do exactly what he said he would, he gave me great pricing, and everything at closing was exactly as had been agreed upon — no surprises. In fact, he was even able to push the process along to allow us to close early! Would definitely use again and would recommend them to any family or friends. Thanks Brandon!

Ethan Pikoff is the best! He is professional, caring, genuine, smart, and met our expectations to ensure we were in our new home within 45 days. He works ²⁴⁄₇ to make sure everything is lined up and no surprises. Academy Mortgage is enriched with Ethan on their team and we feel blessed he worked with us. We have owned many homes across the nation and Ethan is by far the best we have ever worked with!

Jake was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the entire re-​finance process. He made everything go quickly and smoothly. He was very detailed and kept in contact with me the entire time, even when I had silly questions. I would recommend him and his team to anyone I know. Truly the least painful experience I have ever had.
