A really good and successful experience
First of all I want to say thank all the people that was involved, especially Eric Lewis. From day one he welcome me into the fold and made me feel value added and he was with me thru the whole process with suggestions and advise. Eric Lewis is a rare find in loan officers. Pennymac should have Mr. Lewis picture as what a good loan officer should be.
