"RCN was absolutely easy to work with. I did a cash out Refi with them. The process was check and easy. I believe I closed within 3 weeks. Serena was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. She was professional and went the extra mile to ensure I understood what we needed to make the deal work. I would recommend them 1000%!"
Rosheed S.
"My experience working with RCN has been nothing short of spectacular. Professional on all levels with an efficiency that makes working on any deal seemless. My dealings with loan officer Eileen Mazza have been extraordinarily productive. Her work ethic is second to none and her knowledge has helped me in more ways than I can possibly count. Looking forward to working with her and RCN for the foreseeable future"
