When we found the home we loved we gave James a very tight time schedule to work with. He not only met our timeframe, but did so with excellence and a smile. He was professional and friendly, a pleasure to work with. I would recommend James to my family, friends, or anyone looking to purchase a new home.

This was my first time buying a home and I couldn't have asked for someone better than James to help me through the process. He was very knowledgeable, explained the process clearly, and was very patient with my nerves going through this whole thing. He also has a great sense of humor, which is always helpful, and kept at bay people who were trying to second-guess my choices. We went from our very first meeting to closing on my new home in 48 days, which I imagine is some kind of speed record, without any major hassles or setbacks. I would recommend James to anyone looking for knowledgeable and patient help in buying a home!

I just wanted to reach out and say thank you for everything Mr. James Rhodes has done for us in regard to purchasing our home. He was extremely professional, worked in our best interests, and was motivated to get the job done correctly. It was a pleasure to work with him because he went the extra mile for us in our home purchase. He ensured we were smart on every aspect of our home purchase and took care of our every need. James ensured everyone was up too speed on the process, making it smoother. It was refreshing to have James on our team and he is a definite asset to your team. Although, we will probably not purchase another house, we would use him again. If there were rankings we would give him an 11 out of 10. Again thank you for your support and thank you for having James on your team.

Overall, we were extremely pleased and thankful for the service provided by James. As first time home buyers, James handled our process with both professionalism and personal care. He demonstrates a clear understanding and expertise in his craft, and he is able to translate the information in a way that is relatable. He presents as honest and straight forward and seems to treat his clients as if they are his friends. We are thankful to have him as part of our home buying team. We would fully endorse and recommend his services to others.

James Rhodes is amazing. As a first-time home buyer, he treated me with courtesy and respect. Often with a calming and informal tone throughout the process, he kept me up-to-date with everything in the home-buying process via phone, email, and text. I found that James was very accessible via all of these methods too. I never had to wait more than a few hours for a reliable and clear response on my mortgage inquiries. I feel that from inception to well after closing, he has been walking me down the path of homeownership and has been a rock for me. I sincerely recommend him and his team at PrimeLending for all mortgage needs. I highly recommend.

I have worked with James Rhodes for my mortgages on my first house and my second, and when the time comes, I will again work with James on the third. I know I do not need to shop around for rates, because James' integrity won't let him offer me anything less than the best available. On my first mortgage, out of the twenty people I contacted wanting information on mortgage programs, he was the ONLY one to call me back with the information I needed to make a decision. He is extremely punctual in returning my calls, emails and texts with whatever crazy question I need answered.

I am deeply grateful to have James Rhodes on my team in the house buying process. I started to work with another mortgage broker but felt like I was passed off to fill out an application on-line without even an initial conversation and this didn’t feel right. My Realtor referred me to James Rhodes and James responded quickly to set up a meeting with me immediately. I was able to talk to him about all of my fears about getting a loan as a self-employed person. He helped me with clear guidelines in how to make this happen and was present in every step of the loan process. When a small snag showed during the final process of the loan, James went to bat for me. I so appreciate his help and will refer all my friends and anyone I meet his way. Thanks James for the excellent service!

James Rhodes is a pleasure to work with throughout the entire refinancing process. This hard working man is not afraid of taking on all the necessary leg work. He really made a joy out of and often dull task. A true asset to his company and those lucky enough to work with him.

James Rhodes was recommended to me by my real estate agent as a very professional, customer oriented broker, something you rarely hear about together. Over the course of this home buying ordeal he was with me 100%. Always on top of things, ready to do and get just what I needed to make things flow smoothly for me. That was really a big deal as I was 2000 miles away and did everything by email and phone, and believe me I am not an easy person to deal with. All went smoothly into the close without a hitch. I could not be happier and more at ease working with James and will recommend him to all interested in purchasing a home. It has been such a pleasure dealing with him and I cannot thank him enough for making such an ordeal into a walk in the park.

James Rhodes is the most professional and courteous loan officer we have ever dealt with. He kept us informed daily. As soon as James heard of an update, he would contact us immediately, no matter what time or day. James was very thorough during the whole process. As Veterans, we appreciate his dedication during the purchase of our beautiful home.

We want to thank you again for your exemplary service with our recent home buying experience in New Mexico. We knew it would be a challenge moving from Philadelphia, but you assured us that you would make it as smooth as possible. We were impressed with you every step of the way; from the ease of the application process through your working with our PA realtors, our NM realtor, both title companies and everyone in between. We appreciated that you were even willing to answer questions in the middle of a fishing trip and took the time to come to our NM settlement to meet us. You will always be our favorite Loan Officer!

Working with James was great. He worked hard to get us the information we needed quickly and was very proactive in helping us get all the documentation need to complete the mountains of paperwork that is required to buy a house. Great thing for us was it was painless because we were well informed and got everything taken care of early with his help. James is very responsive and was also a great help in explaining all the great options for financing that were out there and helping us decide whether it was better to buy a house which needed updates or if we should look for a newer home. Even with a small hiccup in the process James and Prime Lending were able to get everything processed well ahead of our closing date. I will refer James to everyone I know who is buying or refinancing a home.

James Rhodes and Prime Lending was a pleasure to work with. They assisted me with the refinancing of my home. James made the process simple, easy and flawless. James walked me through each step of the process. As a working individual, it is not easy to take time away from work to complete and sign paperwork. I would like to thank James Rhodes/Prime Lending for their flexibility and working with me and my busy schedule. James continues to be available to answer all my questions and explain them in detail. I would highly recommend James Rhodes and Prime Lending.

I recall my initial contact with James to inquire about obtaining a mortgage pre-approval; it was on the Saturday of the Labor Day holiday weekend. James called me that afternoon in between his family holiday activities to touch base. And then he formulated various document estimates for me and emailed them to me on Labor Day. This was very helpful to me and my timely situation. From there on, James continued with the utmost courtesy. His knowledge of lending, responsiveness, and customer service led me through the process of purchasing my home stress-free. And I was able to close on my originally scheduled closing date - Phenomenal. So happy I made the right choice! Thanks James!!

I couldn't be more pleased with the service I received from James. I admit, I was hesitant to go outside the traditional credit union or banking system but, James assured me he'd walk me through the process of obtaining a mortgage for my cross-country move and, he was! I was easily able to reach out to him via telephone or email and get quick, accurate responses - that's very different than the customer service provided by the traditional routes. I highly recommend James!

"James helped us to refinance our house twice. We approached him the first time for help when interest rates were significantly below what we had originally bought the house for. Like millions of others, we know we are under water on our home loan - we purchased at the top of the bubble at the end of 2005. When he helped us with the first refinance, he found a program that would not involve an appraisal. After that, interest rates dropped again, and we contacted him - but James counseled us to wait until the rates had dropped even further before refinancing again. When the time was right, James called us and set up the second refinance.He accommodated our wishes to go with a different title company, a shorter payoff (15 instead of 30 years) and he attended the final meeting to make sure the signing went well. James keeps his customers' interests in mind."

My family and I would like to thank you for all of your help during the loan process. Your hard work and dedication to our loan paid off in the end and enabled us to get into our new "dream" home. You said in the beginning that you weren’t sure if you could get it done, but you did and we thank you for that. This loan process with you was painless and I wish I had purchased my other home with you. James at PrimeLending dedicated his time and efforts as if it was his own home, which made it seem as if I was a friend and not just a client. Thanks again James Rhodes your the man!!!!
