to Processing


Our five-step mortgage process starts by applying online and getting pre-approved within 24 hours. This will require you to provide us some basic financial and personal information. We will take that information and get back to you with a pre-approval letter.

Getting pre-approved determines how much we are willing to lend, allowing you to shop for homes with confidence. Sellers will take your offer more seriously when you have a pre-approval from a lender. With this complete, you can now start your home search.

Finding the right home takes time, there are many things you need to look for and work out with the sellers. Once you find the home you would like to purchase, make and offer, and come to an agreement with the seller, we will submit your loan to our processing team.

This may seem far from simple for people, but Neighborhood Loans has you covered! The mortgage loan processor is the link between your loan officer and underwriter. We collect and verify all the documents necessary to prepare your loan. This is arguably the most important part of the loan process.

After you’re cleared-to-close, we will schedule your closing and fund the loan on the day that is most convenient for you. After the final documents are signed, you will be given the keys to your new home! We look forward to helping you through our home buying process.

I could not recommend Richard Mauro more!! My husband and I closed on our first home in Lemont thanks to Rick's guidance and dedication to getting us to the finish line! We spoke with another lender that was unable to utilize my income as I work in a field that is 100% commission based. Thank goodness I reached out to Rick because he was able to get it done! He was responsive, overly communicative and with us every step of the way. If you're thinking of buying real estate in Chicago, look no further and contact Rick Mauro today!

I have done half a dozen closings and none went as smoothly as my process with Neighborhood Loans specifically with Richard Mauro!! He made it such a seamless process. We are so grateful to have worked with someone that actually cares and not just goes thru the motions. Thank you Rich for all your hard work and dedication!

Jet Ameti and Richard Mauro provided amazing customer service! We refinanced our home with Jet and Richard as our loan officers. The process was explained and completed successfully. Jet was always prompt to respond to my calls and emails answer throughout the process. We are very happy with the outcome. Highly recommended!!!
