Molitor Financial Group

Worked with Aaron on a refinance. He was always on top of his work, and did an excellent job. Any kinks my loan threw at us (and there were plenty!) he knew what to do and found out quickly how to fix them.
Overall a great job, can’t wait to work with him again!

MFG came highly recommended by a close friend as well as our Realtor. Craig and his team did a great job of walking us through every step of the application process and made sure we understood everything. We purchased a short sale property so the process was really drawn out but as soon as we got word we were closing Craig was on it and helped us lock in a good rate. The guys at MFG work together as a team and really helped make our home buying process painless. We also re-​financed with Craig 18 months after our initial purchase and things went just as smoothly as they did the first time around.

Aaron was on point the entire time and always available for the million questions we had. Cannot recommend more.

We worked with Aaron to buy our new home. We met in the summer in a local coffee shop. He explained in great detail how home buying works in Chicago as well as how the market conditions are and how Molitor works.
As first time buyers, he was so patient with answering all our questions. He also made himself available during each step along the way. I was in LA on a pre-​planned visit when it came time to pay the initial earnest money and refresh all the income/​personal docs. Let’s just say: we were scrambling because we were away, but Aaron helped us at all hours of the night to get it right.
Everything else went smoothly even on closing day. I spent more time in traffic after we closed than in the room with everyone. It was a little less than two hours, which is pretty atypical from what I’ve heard. This is thanks to Aaron being in constant communication with the bank.
Overall: great experience. I would highly recommend Aaron and Molitor to anyone. They really care and exceed all expectations.

Worked with Josh and he was incredible! From the second that I contacted him, he was very attentive and easy to work with. He was able to dumb down the process for a person like me, who knew absolutely nothing about mortgages. When I met him at closing, it was like seeing an old friend. As a first time buyer, I was very pleased.

My husband and I had an excellent experience with Molitor Financial Group. Each person we came into contact with provided superb service. Mike B. was our main contact, and we were so impressed with his attention to detail, speediness in responding to correspondence, availability, and patience. Having been through buying and refinancing before, we could really appreciate how Molitor stands above their competitors. I would absolutely recommend to everyone I know, and if I’m ever in the market again, I will use them myself.

Stephanie S’s review of Aaron is pretty much on point with mine.
My home buying process began with meeting Craig at Corner Bakery who walked me through the whole home buying process. As a first time home buyer, I was pretty uninformed about the whole process. I can’t say I 100% understood the process when I left the conversation, but I certainly felt like I had someone that I could go to for more questions (and there definitely were some!)
He also recommended Ben, who took set up my housing search. He was great as well. It didn’t take too long to find «the one».
Once I did, Aaron came into play. He was always available on phone and quick to respond via email. He was easy to talk to, and answered my questions to the best of their ability.
I should also note that Ben and Aaron work well together, so it felt like I really had a great support team.
Thanks guys!

We got connected with Josh through a friend that spoke highly of him and the Realtor Mario Barrios! We loved working with him as he was super helpful answering so many of my questions since we were buying our first home! He accommodated our schedule and were able to go through items over the phone and he got back to us immediately anytime we asked him something! It was amazing and made our whole experience of buying our first home go super smoothly! We couldn’t be happier! Thank you for all your help Josh! Definitely will use him again!

I was a first time home buyer so I wanted to work with someone who I trusted and who took the time to explain things to me. Josh Kahn came highly recommended, and my first interaction with him was instantly different (ie better) than any other brokers I met. He was much more professional and consultative. Throughout the process he was very responsive, thorough, trustworthy, and informative. Highly recommend Josh and MFG

Ben DeBoer,
Thank you for absolutely everything you have done in helping us pursue our dream home. The communication, professionalism and efficiency throughout the whole process was above and beyond and because of you we are now proud homeowners. Thank you so much once again we are forever humble and grateful for your service. Please feel free to stop by anytime and Once again, thank you very much for the advice and assistance given during our loan negotiations. We are very happy with the service we received and wouldn’t hesitate recommending you to our friends and family.
Love
Armando and Mattie Martinez

Aaron was pivotal in getting my mortgage approved! I attempted to go through another broker, but when I wasn’t getting the service and guidance I needed (I’m a first time homebuyer) a friend referred me to Aaron Gosser at MFG. And thank goodness I switched, otherwise, I don’t know where I would be sleeping right now.
Aaron is hands on, personable, knowledgeable, well connected, communicates effectively, patient, and was a joy to work with!
Our relationship began when we met for coffee in my neighborhood, and he patiently walked me through the mortgage approval process. I was impressed with how he simplified an otherwise foreign process to me. I walked away feeling confident that I was capable of buying my first home! It was very empowering! And things only improved from there. He was always a quick phone call or facetime away when I had a question, or needed his expert opinion or guidance. Furthermore, he has a long list of trusted contacts that include attorneys, insurance brokers, and financial planners to help along the way and into the future.
I would recommend Aaron Gosser at MFG to anyone looking to have a positive and empowering home buying experience!

I highly recommend working with Michael Benks at Molitor Financial Group. We came upon Molitor Financial through Unilocal and met with Michael at Molitor’s Andersonville office. The entire process couldn’t have gone smoother. Michael did an excellent job explaining the different types of products available and helped us choose the appropriate mortgage for our situation. It is also worth mentioning that of the 3 or 4 other mortgage quotes I got, Molitor’s was by far the most competitive.
Michael was incredibly responsive throughout the entire deal; I don’t think he ever took more than 10 minutes to return a call. I was also frequently updated on how the loan was progressing.
I highly enjoyed working with Molitor and would suggest that anyone shopping for a mortgage give them a call.

It was a really good experience working with Mike! He is just awesome! I was the first-​time home buyer and had no idea where to start with the mortgage process. Luckily I met Mike and he not only walked me through the entire process but also helped me secure a very competitive mortgage rate. Thank you Mike for your hard work! High recommended!

We were first-​time home buyers, so didn’t really know where to start with the mortgage process. Given MFG was local and had great Unilocal reviews. I figured, «what a great place to start. I’ll call them, get some information and then really start looking for lenders.»
Little did I know I was finding a mortgage broker for life. Josh and team are the best.
I found MFG on a random Wednesday at 9:30pm. I called the number on their Unilocal page thinking I’d get an office phone where I could leave a message. Nope, it was Josh’s cell phone. And he answered. At 9:30pm.
I felt terrible for disturbing him so late, but he didn’t rush me off the phone… he asked a few questions, took my contact information and said he’d send me some more information in the morning. Needless to say, my search for a mortgage broker/​lender ended that night.
The whole team at MFG really made our first-​time home buying experience so much less stressful. Josh was available all the time to answer our questions and he was proactive in providing updates to other parties involved (agents, attorneys, etc.). So much so that the seller’s agent and our attorney were asking us «where did you find this guy?»
If you’re buying your 1^st home or your 100^th, give Josh a call. You’ll be glad you did!

I worked with Josh Kahn (and was supported by Shelly) — these guys are fantastic. We had some unusual circumstances which they accommodated as much as possible and went to bat for us on a lot of points. Ultimately we were unable to close with them (after working with them over a month) but they still fully supported us even when they knew they weren’t getting paid.
I was told by my real estate lawyer that he rarely finds a reputable mortgage broker but that he thoroughly enjoyed working with Josh/​Molitor Financial and thought he did an amazing job.

Such a satisfied client!
This was my second time using MFG, and I could not be happier. Troy and his team really make everything so easy to understand, are always willing to answer any questions, and explain things further in terms anyone can understand.
When we were faced with some missing documents from the sellers, and had a potential closing catastrophe on our hands. Troy was persistent with all parties involved so that we could close before we were «homeless».
Troy’s network lead me to finding my realtor, my home inspector, my closing attorney, my insurance rep, and my handy man — all of which are equally as professional and efficient. If you are a first time home buyer and coming in blind, or if you were not happy with your last home buying experience, I would HIGHLY recommend reaching out Molitor Financial Group.
Thank you guys! Until next time!

I have done multiple mortgage thru Molitor financial the past 3 years, mainly with Criag, Ben and Dustin, and I am a very satisfied customer.
Not only they get me very competitive rates, they also work around the clock to fit to your schedule, so that I don’t need to spend extra time during the process. If they can manage it, they will meet you at your home or office to save you time.
Closing a house very often go to (or past) the last minute, and they do a great job of making sure the deal get closed. I had a deal that was delayed quite a bit because of the appraisal, and they were able to make sure that we still manage to close and I don’t have to pay extra costs.
Since I have been working with them I never felt the need to shop with another broker, and I strongly believe you will feel the same if you try them!

I used Molitor financial group to refinance my townhouse and they were absolutely fantastic! They walked me through the entire process, making this a extremely easy transaction. Ben and Craig would update me on the process and even helped me w things not related to the refi. They were more than willing to work w me on my schedule and if they needed something they would offer to pick it up and drop it off, if that was easier for me.
They conducted themselves w professionalism and I would highly recommend them to anyone! Whether you’re a first time home owner or have been around, these guys will do everything possible for you!

We reached out to MFG back in Nov about buying our first home. Troy Molitor contacted us and we went in to chat. He explained everything we needed to do to get ready to secure a mortgage from credit to savings.
When the new year rolled around, he put us in contact with a realtor he knew and trusted and that’s where the fun and excitement really began. From the first offer to the final closing Troy and his team were on top of everything we needed to do. He found us a terrific loan and worked with us all the way down to the last minute when the keys were handed to us.
Troy turned a stressful process into a much smoother one. He was friendly and hard working and even though we are pretty small potatoes, he never treated us that way. I’ve already recommended Troy and MFG to 2 other people and will continue to recommend him from here on out, and when the time comes to get another mortgage I’ll go to Troy.
A fun little story. On our first meeting, my wife, my 2 year old daughter, and myself went in to meet Troy. My daughter had been wanting one of those little cars you drive around in the yard, but we didn’t have a yard to put a car in, so we told her, when we got a new house she could get a car. She told Troy «Get new home,» and when I asked why she said «Get pink car!» Troy never forgot that. When he introduced us to our realtor (who we will recommend to everyone and use again) he mentioned the house had to have a yard so my daughter could have a pink car. About a week after closing Troy texted me a picture of a little pink jeep. It is that type of attention and commitment that made Troy different and made this whole process perfect.

Josh and Team are AMAZING!!! They are incredibly passionate, professional, personable and dedicated to helping us find and get our dream home (and, of course, we did). Josh was a true partner and guide for us from day 1 through closing.
I called him because of the amazing Unilocal reviews. I didn’t think i could buy a house but wanted to know the process and how to plan so i could in the future.
He was incredible and so excited to do all the pre-​planning with us! My boyfriend and i went in for an intro conversation & it turns out we had a lot of misinformation about mortgages. We could absolutely buy a house and he helped us budget very conservatively to ensure we were looking at places we could truly afford (mortgage + all the extras). And he introduced us to our Fabulous realtor, Shane Plummer :)
Having a broker is the best advice i could give someone. And you should definitely use Molitor. Please please please just call. It will seriously be the best experience you will ever have.
I would and have recommended this team to all of my friends and family. AMAZING!!!
