The ZTeam at Amerifirst was very helpful during my home loan process in making sure I fully understood everything and answering all my questions. They were quick and efficient and got back to me very quickly on any concern I had. Thanks so much for getting me into the home I wanted!

John was great and with me every step of the way! He let me know what to do and not to do while going through the loan process. If I had a question either he or Joanne was there to help out. I highly recommend John and his team for your mortgage loan. He made it seem so easy and flawless.

Second finance/refinance with the John Z team and it came together perfectly. Tyler kept us involved and informed every step of the way, even making sure that the title company and notary had all the details squared away on the Friday before closing (It’s amazing how many lenders don’t pay attention to details like these). This is a great outfit.

I would highly recommend Nathan Halley. My transaction went great!

Holly Randolph

I worked with John and his team on both my home purchases which were 4 years apart, that’s how great he was! John is very professional and knowledgeable about the industry and what’s needed. He ensured he was always available for questions and gave us all options possible to help us make best decisions with our loan. I highly recommend John and his team!
