"We’ve had the pleasure of working with Rodrigo twice—first as first-time homebuyers, and later when we decided to refinance. Both experiences were outstanding. From the beginning, Rodrigo made us feel heard, respected, and fully supported. He took the time to educate us, answer every question with patience, and guide us through each step with clarity and care. What truly sets Rodrigo apart is his unwavering commitment to putting his customers first. His professionalism is matched by his warmth, and it shows in every interaction. Because of the trust and confidence he built with us during our initial mortgage, choosing him again for refinancing was an easy decision. We’re grateful for his expertise and integrity, and we recommend him wholeheartedly."
