I would like to thank Glenda for her assistance in processing my reverse mortgae. I am a retired mortgage broker and as such familiar with the product. Glenda ensured the process went smoothly up to the underwriting. I would suggest that you advertise that this product is also available to purchase a home, something I had to confirm before starting the process. My only other concern is that there was further documentation requested from my lawyer by your underwriters after he was told the file was complete.

Awesome Customer Service

Dealing with Glenda Neill was an absolute pleasure! She took the time to explain how reverse mortgage works AND even if I thought I had a silly question she answered it for me. From the very start she was friendly, professional and knows her stuff. I would recommend her to anyone wanting a reverse mortgage.

Glenda has a very welcoming manner with new clients and is efficient and quick in responding to questions. The only stressful part can be one’s level of competence in the computer world and in understanding of banking jargon. All in all it went well.

Authentic Communication is Appreciated

What could have been an exhaustive & confusing experience was simplified with care, understanding and patience by Agnes. We had plenty of questions, all of which were answered sincerely & slowly (hint: my wife and I are not spring chickens) until we were finally able to make the right decisions. Thank you for your patience, knowledge, and care.

Acquiring a reverse mortgage, pain-free.

Each step was clearly delineated and we were kept fully informed alone the way.
Glenda Neill was the individual who introduced us to the process of obtaining a reverse mortgage and did a fine job of facilitating the successive steps by always being available to answer any questions with precision and patience.

Well run company, exceptional representative

I considered that getting a reverse mortgage could turn into a nasty experience with the wrong representative. I initially contacted a competitor and recognized that the person I was dealing with was a little off-handed and not detail oriented. I contacted Equitable Bank and was put in touch with Agnes Letkeman. Agnes impressed me with her scope of knowledge, her prompt and professional customer service skills, and her evident care for clients. My experience with Equitable Bank was a smooth one from beginning to end. My kudos to Equitable and their affiliates for being well run organizations. Special kudos to Agnes for providing customer service that seems to be in short supply these days.
