***PLEASE READ - IMPORTANT***

We DO NOT sell your information to any third party after we pull your credit. After your credit is pulled, the 3 credit bureaus (Experian, Equifax & Transunion) immediately put this information on a marketing leads list, in the form of "trigger leads." Unfortunately, brokers & banks have no control to stop this, since the bureaus are regulated by the CFPB. We know how frustrating it can be to get hundreds of spam calls and to help prevent this – you can register with the Do-Not-Call Registry here: donotcall.gov

As a small business owner obtaining a mortgage is considerably more involved than your conventional type. This is where Thomas Abbate of Petra Cephas really shines. He went above and beyond the normal process and spent considerable time to have our mortgage approved. He succeeded where others failed due to his perseverance and genuine concern for us. I whole heartedly recommend him and Petra if you are in the market and hope to use them in the future.

Tom and the Petra Cephas Team are very knowledgeable and really took the time to listen and work with my family. I’m a first time homeowner and was a nervous wreck! He calmed my nerves, took the time to explain in detail each step of the way. He was always readily available to answer all questions. I appreciate the Petra Cephas team, they helped to make my dream come true!
