They bought my mortgage a month after we closed two years ago and we didn’t use a JD loan, but haven’t had any issues with them to date with paying our mortgage.

In same situation and no complaints.

Got a jumbo loan with them at slightly below market rates because of the JD program. They were very responsive to my emails and calls, and their website is easy to use. Haven’t had any problems or need to reach out in the past year. Would reccomend

Haven’t heard of them but very intrigued now!

When your seniors aren’t motivated and pulling their weight, it shows and demotivates you. It’s a domino effect. How do you handle these situations?

I’ve been at a job for a few months and hate it - partners set unrealistic deadlines, micromanage, and create work that truly is not necessary/push urgency when there is no real urgency. I had other offers prior to accepting this job that may still be options, and going back to my old job (for a pay cut) might also be an option. I can’t tell if this is just burnout, growing pains, or just an untenable work environment. Would you ride it out for a year at new job or pursue other options? HELP!
