I'm a Very Happy Customer!!!

After hearing what a good experience my friend, Jan M., had with Good Life and Dave Schulte, I decided that I would talk with them about my reverse mortgage. From the very beginning, Dave was easy to talk to and always seemed to have my best interests in mind. He gave easy to understand answers to my many questions and was pleasant and friendly. I felt completely informed at every stage of the process. I would highly recommend Dave Schulte and Good Life to seniors out there who have any questions about Reverse Mortgages! You won't regret it!

Well Done! Clear, quick and understandable

Dave and his team at GoodLife provided an excellent experience in our reverse mortgage process. His guidance helped facilitate the process in terms of completing the necessary protocols in a timely fashion.

The follow up and follow thru from GoodLife was quick and easy to understand. The documents were explained to us in a plain english fashion.

Initially my wife was a bit nervous about the process and by the time the Mortgage was closed she was extremely comfortable and enthusiastic.

Neither my wife or I have any complaints with Daves team in guiding us thru an initially mysterious procedure.

Well Done!

Also, they were very personable to chat with on phone

My experience with Good Life

My experience with Good Life was exceptional. I worked with Dominic for most of the procedure. He was great at keeping me on track and helping to understand everything. I would probably still be in the midst of it all and not completely done if it wasn't for Dominic. He really is an amazing person. He seems so easy going and able to handle any personality but he is actually very goal oriented so anyone working with him will get the best there is to offer.
I also had Dawn as my loan processor. She also was wonderful. She was very knowledgeable and helped out immensely. Very good experience!

We enjoyed working with Dave Schulte on refinancing our reverse mortgage. Throughout the whole process, we felt he used his knowledge and experience to help us secure the loan. Plus, he was very patient whenever our lack of computer expertise got in the way. We are thankful for Dave and his company for the great outcome.

Janette Heyl is good at her job!

Janette Heyl is the main reason I gave GoodLife Home Loans a rating of five stars. She seemed to understand, almost instinctively, that I was a strong-willed person who would resist strongly if I were pushed. So...she didn't push! She listened and responded to what I said. When I indicated I needed to "think about it", she didn't tell me "..time is short" or other such warnings. In short, she was responsive to me. Even though we had never met in person, sometimes I felt as though we had!

Janette definitely deserves 5 big stars!

We wish you the very best with your new reverse mortgage and hope for the chance to serve you again!
