Where do I begin singing the praises of Upen Patel? It would be impossible for me to articulate in words just how wonderful of a professional he is but more importantly how great of a person he is. I have known him now for over three years and dealing with him has been an absolute pleasure. He is a man of integrity, honesty and sincerity and that is RARE to find in a human being especially currently. What Upen says he delivers. It is that simple. I found him through a referral and even though his recommendation and reviews were stellar, I still wanted to see for myself because who really measures up to all the fanfare when it comes down to it? Upen does. That’s who. My wife and I have a unique situation in that we have been looking for some time now and have experienced losing out in bidding wars on multiple homes in addition to losing two homes that we were under contract because of appraisal issues. Through ALL these experiences Upen was right there with us, in the trenches doing all that he could to help us get to the finish line. I can honestly say that Upen and The Federal Savings Bank were the only positive, properly functioning facets of those two lost homes. Whatever was needed in those circumstances from the banking end was signed, sealed and delivered. I wish I could say that about the agents, lawyers and all the other pieces involved in a real estate transaction. It could be 10pm at night and if I needed a question answered, something to be explained or just some therapy to help with the stress of buying a home, Upen was there. I always could get in touch with him whether by phone, text or email. I never felt alone or put on an island by him. When it comes to what is potentially the biggest financial expenditure you will make in your lifetime you want someone who is on your side, guiding you, advising you and you want to be able to fully trust that person with one hundred percent conviction. That person for us was Upen Patel. Eventually we found another home, got it under contract and finally closed the deal. Once again it was with Upen as our banker, doing what he does best delivering, excelling, performing and producing for his clients like a superstar. By the time we entered into the third contract on the third home I did not consider Upen our banker anymore because at this point and after all we had been through together and all he did for us I felt he was a friend. I spoke to him no differently than how I speak to my closest friends or family members, that is what happens when you fully trust someone and when that person is salt of the earth and is top notch in their field of expertise. Obviously, from what you are reading I can not recommend this man enough for all of your banking needs. He is rare, unique, extremely intelligent, great at what he does and has a perfect temperament to deal with anxious people like myself especially when it comes to such a large purchase as your first residence. Last thing, HIRE THIS MAN and you will be counting your lucky stars that you did.
