Hi Robbie!
Can’t thank you enough for the help and guidance you gave to Cat and me to help us buy our first home. Wanted to send a testimonial for your management review.
Working with Robbie and his colleagues at First Independence Bank was an absolute dream! As first-time homebuyers, this was a completely new world we were entering, and Robbie was there every step of the way to help guide us. From personal anecdotes to industry-specific explanations, we could always count on Robbie to answer any questions we had. I can’t imagine how we would have bought our first home without him!
Best,
Ryan

Dear Rob,
We want to sincerely thank you for your professionalism, patience, and unwavering support throughout our first homebuying experience as a married couple. From the moment we first spoke, you made us feel at ease with your honesty, clear communication, and deep knowledge of the process.
You were always available; whether by email, phone, or text and even late into the evenings when we had questions. You took the time to walk us through every step, making sure my wife and I understood everything fully and felt confident in the decisions we were making. That level of care and dedication made all the difference!
Your passion for what you do is evident, and we’re so grateful for the experience we had working with you and the team at First Independence Bank! You truly went above and beyond, and we will absolutely recommend you to any future homebuyers we know.
Thank you again for everything! We’re excited for what’s ahead in our new home, and we’ll always remember how you helped make this possible.

I was fortunate to have worked with Robbie Silverstein for my physician mortgage. From the moment he picked up my initial phone call through the closing, Robbie was always available and happy to answer any questions I had. Even though this wasn’t my first mortgage, it was great to have him walk me through the process, and I feel like he really was my advocate throughout the nuances of my slightly unorthodox purchase process. Definitely the best I have worked with and I would not hesitate to recommend Robbie and First Independence Bank to my colleagues. FIB also had the best product/rates for my needs which was a big plus.

Buying a house in this market was a challenge made easier by the support and guidance of Rob. Rob helped walk us through the specifics, strategize our financial position. Rob was on top of our file from day one through closing. We are confident we were able to secure the best possible loan on our new home thanks to Rob.
Thank you,
Satisfied new homeowners,

Mr. Silverstein,
I am writing to Thank You for your professionalism and patience during my refinance process. After cancelling a potential refi with my former mortgage company because they were not forthcoming about the exorbitant fees they were attempting to charge me, you assured me that you would be able to get me a better deal and you would be there throughout the process. You did just that!
I will recommend you to anyone I know who is looking to either purchase a home or refinance. You certainly make your job look easy although I know, you took calls and text messages from me on Saturdays and even Sundays. Who does that? Not many people go above and beyond their work week to assure their client is comfortable with this long and paper intensive process. You told me you were there for me during my signing if I had any questions. You not only took one call but, several to answer questions I was uncertain about. I never once felt as though I was not informed every step of the way!
Please share this letter with your superiors. They need to know how valuable you are to their company. Kudos to them for having you as a valuable member of their team!
Again, Thank You for your Invaluable Support.

Just wanted to drop a note to thank you both for the support lent to Lilly throughout the sales process. I have been through this process enough times to be somewhat seasoned and calm. I knew she was in good hands with you both and felt comfortable that you wouldn’t lead her astray. Thanks for having integrity in your word and deed. That is priceless.
Thank you so very much for helping me thru another big step in my life, the refinance of my condo. I received a FedEx yesterday with 2 checks. I took the PSCU check to them today, wow that was a huge weight lifted. The other check will be used to take care of a few electrical safety issues, long overdue upgrades to the kitchen & pay off more credit debt. Yes, I will refer any one to you that I think may need an expert’s assistance!

I’ve been banking with another financial institution for 30 years now and in 3 decades I never received the personal attention, reliability or availability that Robbie provided me. Robbie is highly responsive to the needs and concerns of his clients, a personal touch lost on phone trees, recorded directories and answering services. Robbie gave me his cell phone number, which I hope I didn’t abuse, but which allowed me to contact him during the evenings and on weekends. the average amount of time that Robbie responded to my questions and concerns was immediately. Let’s add that this guy came to my closing bought us a celebratory bottle of wine and congratulated me on the purchase of my new home in person. I would not be sitting here in my beautiful new home if it weren’t for a hardworking, attentive and knowledgeable employee. Robbie is an absolute credit to the lending profession, he’s able to break negative stereotypes and he greatly contributes to the reputation of First Independence Bank.
