“Thank you for all your help with the new purchase of my home, and the mortgage. It is hard to believe it has been six weeks already since I closed. It has been the perfect time of year to move in. I hope all is well with you and thank you again. Maybe I will see you at the new Giant stadium...”

“Now that Matt and I are "settled in" (if that's what you call it, because I don't think we will ever really be settled), I just wanted to thank you both for your hard work and all that you did for us. It was a long road, but so worth it in the end and to be helped by friends like you guys made it all the more worth while! Coming soon is a gathering at the house and we hope that you both will come and celebrate with us!”

“I have known Dan for a few years and always knew that he was a good person to work with for a home loan. It was not till I did my own loan with him that I knew how great he was. I've been in banking for 12 years and have seen and worked with a lot of lenders. I know the next time I need a mortgage I will be going back to Dan. Thank you for the great service.”

“As a first time home buyer I walked into L'Altrella Lending with zero knowledge and 1,000 questions, but after sitting and talking with Dan I not only felt informed but also confident when it came time to buy. Not only did I get all my questions answered but I also got someone who would go above and beyond to make sure that the job was done right. I am very happy with my experience and will definitely recommend him to anyone else looking to buy.”

Seth Rothbard, RE/MAX Right Choice, Trumbull
Hired Daniel as a Mortgage Broker 2007 - present



“Dan acted as my mortgage consultant when I purchased my first home in August 2007. During that summer, fear had paralyzed global credit markets making it difficult to obtain financing. I could not imagine anyone else who could have navigated my loan application through the closing process better than Daniel. His professional demeanor, industry experience, and outstanding communication skills kept me relaxed during a stressful time. I highly recommended anyone looking to purchase a home or refinance their current mortgage to give Dan a call.”
