I highly recommend SELCO for all banking and loan and insurance needs. I have used all of these and have never had a bad experience with SELCO employees. Kari in SELCO Mortgage is very attentive and quick to respond to questions through emails and phone calls. She's easy to talk to, knowledgeable, and understood my needs. This is my fourth home purchase and the easiest so far, thanks to Kari.
