    Chris Beal and his team provided us with an unforgettable, excellent experience in buying our first home! Chris Always checked in with us and kept us informed as we dove deeper into the home buying process. He was polite and professional throughout the entire process which eased our minds during what could be a stressful experience for some people. We will definitely recommend Ruoff Mortgage to anyone we know who are looking for a home in the near future.

    Chuck Holden went above and beyond checking over our loan and the numbers for the loan. Chuck made sure we had the best service. Chuck showed throughout our process he is a genuine person who cares for the ones he’s working for.

    The process was over all very smooth, low stress and the online paper work was very easy to navigate. We felt as if Chuck Holden went above and beyond to serve us and was easy to get in contact with and kept us up to date with everything through out the process. Over all we had a very great experiences, it made the home buying process easy for what could be a difficult and stressful time.
