I can’t recommend Peter enough as a mortgage lender! From start to finish, he made what could have been a stressful process incredibly smooth and straightforward. Peter’s expertise is evident, and he took the time to walk me through every option available to ensure I was making the best decision for my financial future. What impressed me most was his personalized approach—he really took the time to understand my needs and tailor the loan options accordingly. Peter was always accessible, quick to respond to emails, and patient in answering all my questions. He made sure I was informed at every stage and was proactive in addressing potential issues before they became problems. Thanks to Peter’s hard work and guidance, I was able to secure a fantastic rate and close on my new home without a hitch. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, dedicated, and knowledgeable mortgage lender, Peter is the one to call!

I had the pleasure of working with Peter for my mortgage, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the entire experience. From the very beginning, Peter was incredibly attentive and thorough, taking the time to explain every step of the process and answer all of my questions—no matter how small. His knowledge of the mortgage industry is extensive, and it was clear from our first conversation that he genuinely cares about finding the best options for his clients. What really stood out to me was how communicative Peter was throughout the entire process. He kept me updated regularly, made sure all deadlines were met, and even went above and beyond to help me understand some of the more complex aspects of securing a loan. Peter’s professionalism and dedication to his clients are second to none, and I felt completely supported every step of the way. Thanks to Peter’s hard work, I was able to secure a great rate and close on my home with ease. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a mortgage lender—his expertise and commitment to his clients are truly exceptional!

I recently worked with Pere Salek at Lendonia to secure a mortgage for my new home, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From our first consultation, Peter was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain every step of the process. They provided a range of options tailored to my financial situation and answered all my questions promptly, making me feel confident in my decisions. What stood out the most was their dedication to finding the best rates and terms. I felt like a valued client rather than just another number. Peter also kept me updated throughout the process, which made everything run smoothly and alleviated much of the stress that often comes with buying a home. I highly recommend Peter Salek and Lendonia to anyone in need of a mortgage broker. Their professionalism, expertise, and personalized service truly set them apart. Thank you, Peter Salek, for making my home-buying experience so positive! ~Darcy Tellone

I was referred to Peter for a somewhat complex closing on a new house purchase. Peter kept us updated regularly through the whole process. He laid out the process and what the next steps would be and he was a pleasure to work with. He anticipated problems and questions and was always one step ahead. I have refinanced in the past with other lenders and it was such a difficult process with providing paperwork. With Peter, it was a simple process and I would ABSOLUTELY work with him again in the future.

I was very impressed with Peter and with the whole process. He is very knowledgeable and is kind enough to share his wisdom with his clients. As a beginner real estate investor I was very grateful for his advice and explanations of the cash out refinancing process on two of my investment properties.

We recently refinanced and consolidated our mortgage. Before our recent refinancing, we had had two loans for our mortgage, at high interest, and inconvenient price. Peter at Lendonia was able to consolidate two loans as one at a preferable rate. He did it in a month and the closing itself was done within an hour. The closing costs were very preferable. Other refinancing organizations proposed a higher percentage and cost (most importantly higher COSTS). Peter was able to offer us the best (LOWEST) costs in one month and consolidate our mortgage at the same time. He was very professional throughout the process. As a person, Peter was very kind and saw us as real people, truly wanting to give us the best option for us. Other refinancing companies just look to find the best deal for themselves. We are very happy and Lendonia was the right choice.

I obtained Lendonia's services through recommendation of my real estate agent while looking to buy a property and I am glad I did. They are very professional, knowledgeable, with many years of experience in the lending business. They were always available via phone (call or text) and email. No matter how easy or complex my questions were, the answers were clear, informative and often educational, not only in the field of lending, but other financial aspects of life. They helped me understand legal documents, walked me through various approval processes, and provided accurate estimates so the closing was a breeze with no surprises. I definitely recommend Lendonia to anyone planning to buy a home.

From the first consultation,Peter and his associates made me feel they would go far and beyond to help make my dream come true. His associates Jarek and Joanna listened attentively and saw my Vision. They all worked diligently never letting me see them Sweat. Even though Sunday is their day off, Joanna offered to tour a home. We hit walls but they broke them down. Regardless of the diversities, they kept hope alive. They have the most warm and inviting personality. My husband said it right, when he stated,”They are family.” I’m forever grateful for encountering the A -Team. Sharron Sims Campbell
