I understand that the process is complicated, with lots of requirements and paperwork and some delay, but it went as well as I could have wished. I am glad that to have it completed.
This was a big decision for our family to obtain a reverse mortgage. I researched all the rates and fees. Then it boiled down to choosing the lender. Most are competitive, but a few were looking out for their best interest, (not ours). The key points I look out for are: honesty, integrity, responsiveness, (ability to communicate in a proactive way - (keeping us informed along the entire process), and education. By education I mean the agent should be able to explain things in laymen’s terms at times. I lucked out and found all of these traits and abilities in one person/company in Dave Schulte with Goodlife Home Loans. He was patient in communicating and helping us determine which program was in our best interest. I guess that’s what made it seem so effortless on our part. The caveat in this is DO Your own RESEARCH. That makes it much easier for you to you choose your agent/company. Thanks Dave Schulte & Goodlife Home Loans! James and Ellen Cochrum 5/18/21
Brandon Simmons is the best! He is part of a wonderful team. They get done what needs to be done in a very timely manner. Brandon is a very easy person to work with and I could see how much he really cares about his clients.
Just would like to thank GoodLife Home Loans for a great job on my reverse mortgage and especially thank Mr. Dominic Rodriguez for all his help he did a mighty fine job thank you all very much
Kathleen Pritchett at Good Life Loans was very professional,friendly and efficient. She guided me through the reverse mortgage process with ease. I had a fraudulent charge appear in my credit report.She put me in contact with proper authorities to handle The situation. I would definitely recommend to my family and friends.. Rose Sollmann
Dave Schulte was great to deal with. He was always very responsive to our emails. Would highly recommend.
Kathleen Pritchett at GoodLife Home Loans handled all aspects of our HECM- from application to closing- promptly and efficiently. She kept in touch with us about all requirements of the process. And the terms of the mortgage were very competitive. We could not have been more pleased with her services.
My 92-year-old father was concerned about the possibility of losing his home if he could no longer care for himself and would have to go into a nursing home. Since he doesn't have the financial ability to support the high monthly costs of living in a care facility, he (or his estate) would most likely lose his home to the state for "estate recovery." I looked towards a reverse mortgage as an option to give him peace of mind and the possibility of in-home health care for as long as possible if his health should take a turn. He is very active with no major health issues, takes care of his lawn, and bowls twice a week with scores in the 200's! I knew reverse mortgages have gained a bad reputation but I soon discovered that the industry now has better oversight and control and was worth checking out. I reached out to three different companies for information and rates. GoodLife Home Loans was one of them. Dave Schulte was our representative from GoodLife. Right from the start, he was professional, passionate, courteous, and above all, no high pressure. He takes the time to listen to your situation and needs and provides the answers and guidance necessary throughout the process. I didn't have quite the same experience with the other two competitors. A reverse mortgage may not be for everyone or every situation, but Dad now has the ability to draw funds to assist with home care, if it's ever necessary, and will not have to worry about monthly payments or losing his home for the remainder of his life.
Straight shooters.
I have been working with banks and mortgages on and off for over the past 50 years. NEVER have I had the positive experience I have had with GoodLife home loans. The reason for this stress free wonderful experience was due to Dave Shulte. He was amazing! He is knowledgeable, professional and friendly. He took control and guided me through the entire process making it pain free. I would recommend him highly to anyone. I am going to miss our fun conversations since my loan is closed. He said he will always be there to support me in the future and I might just call him to say Hi.
Our experience with Good Life representative was very professional and kept us informed through the reverse mortgage process. We enjoyed working with him and would highly recommend him to our family and friends.
Dave was very informative and helpful throughout the loan process. Highly recommend!
With the recent reduction in mortgage interest and our reverse mortgage loan at 5%, the right decision to re-finance saving 2% was an easy one to make. The problem would be finding the right agent/officer to get the job done, as my prior agent/officer was terrific but no longer in the business. Having built a relationship with him, he generously referred me to a friend and associate of his still in the business, Dominick Rodriguez, who turned out to fulfill every point in the title I have given this review. Dominick was knowledgeable about the business and details of these loans, clearly experienced in this business and most importantly to me, having been self-employed all of my life, communicative. With the normal bumps and grinds in the road of getting a loan done, he was always there either by phone, text or email following up on his and the company's needs as well as mine....a highly valued guide through a difficult and tedious process. To me, communication is the key to a successful end, coupled with persistence and timing, in any business effort. And, although the loan, for all intents and purposes, has been finalized, Dominick is still assisting us with a detail that needs attention. Impressive and much appreciated. Good Life Home Loans should be proud and happy to have such a "K-E-C" individual in their employ. Angelo and Colleen Commito
As a 69 year old retiree I was searching for a way to lower or eliminate my mortgage payment. I spoke with several Mortgage companies and found Brandon Simmons of Good Life Home Loans. What a wonderful experience it was to have Brandon walk me through all of the process, approximately 4 months worth. He explained every step of the way and by the second month he was like family. He checked in with me every week whether there were updates or not, just to see if I was ok or had any questions. His level of compassion and concern was admirable.
I can’t say enough good things about Dave Schulte and Good Life Home Loans, but I’ll try. With Dave’s help I was able to lower the interest rate on my reverse mortgage and increase my line of credit. Dave streamlined the process. He arranged the notary signing and contactless appraisal. Dave kept me abreast of what was happening and answered all of my questions. I truly value the honesty, integrity, and helpfulness of Dave and Good Life Home Loans.
I have to say that when I started looking into a reverse mortgage I had no idea what was involved in the process nor how hard it would be. I would never make it through it with out the help of Good life home loans representative Win Clark. Win helped me through every step of the way, my thanks to him. I would highly recommend Good Life Home Loans to everyone who wants a reverse mortgage, they are very knowledgeable in all things related to reverse mortgages.
Mr. Rodriguez was professional, courteous, intelligent and explained the process fully to my wife and I. He was always available and has made it clear that I can contact him at anytime if I have a question, I have both his phone number and email address.
The Goodlife agent,, Dave Shulte, is very good. He knows the business of Reverse mortgage extremely well, and he isn't pushy. He responds to questions and inquiries in a timely manner. Kathy at the local office is also very helpful. It is a frustrating process, but they remained friendly and concerned throughout.
Dave Schulte is an excellent agent. He is able to explain any questions you may have in a genuine manner. He can make this complicated process easier.

May 29,2021For months I prayed about whether I should or shouldn't refinance my home... Making contact with the right company was challenging until contact was made with GoodLife Home Loans... Win, the agent assigned to me, was extremely helpful and guided me successfully through this journey of "Should I...Should I not"... This reverse mortgage has been a most positive experience... Thank you, Win and GoodLife Home Loans...
