Mike Del Preto-Senior Mortgage Advisor-NMLS 230942 N Lasalle Dr, Chicago

Highly recommend Mike and the team as a mortgage lending partner. This was my first time as a home buyer and I began by feeling nervous and overwhelmed, but that very quickly went away after my agent connected me with Mike. His and his team's entire approach was about educating me and keeping me informed throughout the entire process. I always felt in good hands. Communication was outstanding. Their technology platform and dashboard for document sharing/uploading/signing was seamless. I will use them for all my future home loans and will recommend them to all of my friends and family! Great experience!

Mike and his mortgage team made our home buying process so easy! Not only did they take the time to educate us as first time home buyers, but they guided us step by step through the financing process and made the whole thing easy and understandable. They were always available for a call to answer quick questions and if anything, over communicated to us during the process (a very good thing!) I couldn't recommend Mike and his team more!

From beginning to end, Mike and his team were a pleasure to work with. Fortunately he came through a referral and he could not have led a more seamless home buying / lending experience. Whether you have purchased before or not, Mike's expertise and guidance is going to put you in a better position. I will be going back to him when the opportunity arises in the future.

Mike and his team did a great job. They do a great job of letting you know exactly what to expect during the process and then they deliver on those expectations. They were also extremely responsive, even around holidays. I would definitely recommend their services.

As a first-time homebuyer, I was nervous. Fortunately, Mike has made my experience smooth and easy. I’d absolutely recommend Mike as a go-to for home loan services. Thank you for being awesome!

As a first time buyer, Mike & team have gone above and beyond with their services. From explaining every step of the process & responding to all questions (quickly too!) - they’ve been great. Highly recommend them!

Mike Del Preto’s office was so helpful. As a first time home buyer, I felt confident that they were offering me the best options! Would definitely recommend to friends and family!

Mike was exceptional from day 1. He was professional, patient, and very knowledgeable. He was available to answer any and all questions we had and was very responsive throughout the entire process from day one to closing. Buying a house sometimes can be an overwhelming process, but Mike went above and beyond to clarify things to us and educate us. Mike took great care of us; There were no surprises or hidden figures and, we had a smooth closing. We could not have asked for better service. We are so happy with Mike and his entire team who worked with us during the process. They really do amazing work!

Del preto mortgage is the #1 lender in Chicago Nice fun cool time buying a house Made the experience suspiciously easy during a challenging economy and a pandemic Recommend 200%

Not only did Mike and his team help us with our mortgage when we purchased our home, they did a fabulous job when we wanted to refinance a few years later. Mike and his team are always so helpful and responsive answering all my questions. They make the process, which can be confusing and stressful, a breeze. I highly recommend working with them!

Mike Del Preto is one the most responsive, thorough mortgage brokers I’ve ever worked with! He is always top of my list when I recommend mortgage brokers to my real estate clients.

If you are looking for a solid lending team that will exceed expectations, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you work with Mike and his team. My fiancé and I are both military veterans and first-time home buyers and working with Mike and his team was the best choice we could have ever made. Mike is very detailed when explaining the best loan option and his team is always very responsive. Don't look any further, the best choice is Mike and his team.

Fairway and Del Preto Mortgage did a great job of answering any and all questions for us as we were working on purchasing our perfect home. Any time I needed clarification, they responded. It was clear that they were working to make it as easy as possible for us as the customers to have a smooth process. I definitely recommend other mortgage shoppers to call Mike to see what Fairway can offer.

My husband Steve and I had the best experience with Mike Del Preto and his Team at Fairway. This was both of our second times in purchasing a home and compared to the previous experiences (mine was with Chase Bank) Fairway is leagues apart at the top. We really appreciated the care that they took to explain the process, let us know what documents were needed, and their response time, especially in this market (with homes getting multiple offers on the first day on market) that they gave us throughout the process. Most importantly Mike and his Team are honest, fair, and looked out for our best interests especially with the mortgage rates. They made everything easy and smooth, seamlessly working with our attorney and all parties involved. On top of it all, with everything completed remotely, they still somehow made the experience personable and friendly. I know that I will not be using any other mortgage lender in the future. Truly, from the bottom of our hearts, Mike and Team thank you for making this part of the home buying process painless, you have made for us a great experience and helped immensely in getting our forever home.

Mike Del Preto and his team are great! I would highly recommend! It was our first time buying a home and getting pre-approved for a mortgage, and the process was pretty foreign to us. Mike was super easy to work with. He has an easy system to book appointments/calls. He explains everything step by step, and he thoroughly answered all of our questions. He and his team worked quickly too to move the process along for us. It was a pleasure working with Mike and the team.

Mike is honestly the best! Very reliable, always looks out for his clients, very responsive, and is an all around great guy. Highly Recommend!

This was our first home purchase, and after working with Mike, we can't recommend him enough. From our first intake call, Mike was clear that he leads with educating his clients along the way and this really made him stand out. We learned so much about the process from Mike, and he was always available to answer our questions and provide guidance. Mike offered the lowest rates and fees, and every line item was transparent from day one. There were no surprises when it came to closing. Mike is supported by a fantastic team (Corrine, John, Tammy and Yvonne) who ensured our application was processed without any delays. We will not hesitate to work with Mike when the time comes to buy another home!

We were referred to Mike and his team back in Jan. The entire Del Preto team, Mike, John and Tammy have been exceptional to work with. Mike blew every other lender, I have been communicating at the time, out of the water, be it rates, communication or situational awareness. Del Preto team's collaboration with our attorneys and the title company on the final closing was great teamwork. The final closing disclosure was very close to the initial closing cost worksheet, and we were pleasantly surprised at how smooth the closing itself was. I also shared feedback around a minor update that could help first time buyers feel at ease and Mike was very receptive to it. Overall, we were very impressed with Mike and team and will definitely reach to them for any future needs.

Cannot say enough fantastic things about Mike! We had a really complex situation of buying and selling and a very short timeline to make it all happen and Mike and his team were incredible in making it happen. Wish we would have worked with him on our previous purchase! Thanks, Mike!

Extremely knowledgeable mortgage professional who takes the time to learn what your goals are and give recommendations that meet your future plans. As first time home buyer he and his team take the time to educate you on the mortgage process and guide you from application to closing. Very smooth process and explains complicated mortgage concepts in a simple and concise manner.

Mike and his team were incredibly considerate and helpful in each stage of home buying process. They set correct expectations from the beginning and were super responsive over email.

Mike and his team were excellent to work with. Responsive, friendly, competitive rates, and guided me through every step of the process. Great team, would definitely recommend.

Mike is stellar at every aspect of his work! My buyer clients are so impressed by his great communication. He makes everything easier with the home buying process. I love how he has a focus on education to make sure you are making the right decisions and understand exactly how the process works. One of my buyer clients just closed on their home and his e-close paperwork process really helped save us a lot of time at the closing table, making for a much better experience. He’s all around the best with customer service, taking care of everyone even beyond the closing!

As a first time home buyer, I was very unfamiliar with the whole home-buying process and mortgage/real estate jargon. Mike was truly amazing. Offering up his time willingly to walk my boyfriend and I through the process. He made everything seamless and when it came to closing there were absolutely no surprises. Mike and his team always over-communicated with us which,in turn, resulted in an enjoyable experience! I would highly recommend Mike and his team to any close family and friends.

This was my first time buying a home and I can't recommend Mike enough. He explained everything to me clearly and in a simple & direct manner. He kept an open line of communication and always kept me updated with what I needed to know throughout the process. He offered advice, interest rate matching, and charged the lowest fees of other lenders. Mike was completely available and wanting to make sure I felt good in the process. Mike and his team are wonderful!

We've worked with Mike Del Preto and Fairway Mortgage for two separate purchases now, and they are the finest lenders we have ever dealt with. Mike has a talent for simplifying a very complex processes into concise and understandable terms, and has always provided us with all options available as well as the knowledge to make our own decisions. Their fees are also the lowest we have found while shopping for lenders. We have followed Mikes advice every step of the way for both purchases, and time has proven him prudent and wise again and again. Our latest purchase is our 10 year dream home, but if we purchase investment properties in the future it will be with Del Preto Mortgage and Fairway again. I'd highly recommend this lender for purchases big and small.

My husband and I recently purchased our first home and secured our mortgage through Mike Del Preto, and overall were very happy with the experience. Our initial call with Mike was very thorough where he walked us through every step of the home buying process and answered our many questions, and he was always quick to respond when we contacted him along the way. He was receptive to our needs and concerns, and was able to secure us a rate that was even better than what we were hoping to get. His team was very clear and upfront about closing costs (both what they would entail and how much they would be), so there were no surprises on closing day and we paid exactly what we were expecting to pay. We felt like the lines of communication got a bit muddled as we approached our closing date and all of the members on our home-buying team converged for the first time (agent, lender, attorney, title company) and we weren't clear who we should have been getting certain pieces of information from, but it was a minor frustration that we ultimately got through. We shared this with Mike when he called to congratulate us after closing, and he was very receptive to the feedback and even said that he was working on restructuring how his team handles closing communications. We felt well-taken care of during what can at times be a very overwhelming experience and are very glad that we were referred to Mike and his team.

My husband and I were referred to Mike and his team back in March. We couldn’t have had a better experience from start to finish. We had the pleasure of working with so many wonderful people (Mike, Corrine, A’Maya, John, And Tammy). We refinanced our existing home and purchased a new home and the team was amazing throughout the whole process. Everyone communicated exceptionally well and made sure we understood the entire process. We had a unique circumstance and were looking to close very quickly on a new property, and from the moment we signed a contract the team kicked into high gear and made it happen sooner than I could’ve expected! I cant say enough about them all and we are truly grateful for the attention to detail and personable staff. I would use this team time and time again! If you’re looking for a team to get the job done we would definitely recommend Mike Del Preto.

This time I refinanced my mortgage with Mike and team, to a great low rate interest. Having worked with Mike before on the loan for my house, I was very relaxed and open to consider refinance working with him. It all started by Mike's email informing on new lower rates. From there an email from requesting more info, started the whole process. Mike very quickly responded with several options for different lower rates and their corresponding impacts in all the figures, making it really simple for me to make a decision.Once I picked up an option the process continue smoothly online all the way to closing, super easy and convenient. Mike and team are a pleasure to work with, always responding to questions quickly, explaining all the details of the loan, providing several options and models , and readjusting with any question or request from us. They also follow up quickly with any question or concerns. I would recommend Mike and team to anyone.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Mike and his team for my first home purchase experience. As a first time buyer, Mike's knowledge and expertise, combined with his ability to explain it all to someone unfamiliar with the process, made everything easier and smoother. His team was quick and efficient in putting together everything needed to close in a short time frame. I would definitely recommend Mike and his team!

Mike and his team were incredibly informative and diligent. I am a first time homeowner and Mike was able to simplify the process and numbers, so my wife and I could better understand. Mike prepared offer letters in a blink of an eye so we could be competitive when offering. Everything was done electronically during the pandemic, and this actually made everything easier. If I were to do it again, I would choose Mike and his team a million times over.

We appreciated Mike's no-nonsense approach to securing our mortgage and his transparency regarding rate options, timing, and the steps required to reach closing. He was flexible with timing and worked within our schedule for telephone sessions and required consultations. Documents and paperwork were generally sent extremely quickly and Fairway's eSign and related online portals were straightforward and easy to understand and access. Overall we were happy with Mike and his dedication to getting us to where we needed to be as quickly as possible.
