Sandy Spring Bank Trust Georgia Ave, Olney

The entire Sandy Spring team was pleasant and personable throughout the entire loan process. My initial phone call to one of the VP's through the phone number listed on the website was returned promptly and professionally and he continued to provide excellent customer service and responded quickly to my many questions. The fact that Sandy Spring was willing to take on my loan on a fairly unique property that other lenders were shying away from was very relieving as well. I was generally very impressed by the whole experience. In an industry that typically makes you feel like less than a number, the Sandy Spring team made me feel warm and welcome to a family banking environment. I have already referred them to several family members, friends, and colleagues.

Jeff is always available for any and all questions, everyone we’ve worked with at Sandy Spring Bank has gone above and beyond to help us throughout the loan process as well as post settlement (construction loan). Underwriting is a breeze compared to underwriting at other lending institutions. If you’re looking for a team that sees you as more than just a number/transaction I highly recommend Jeff and Sandy Spring Bank!

We went through Sandy Spring Bank to obtain an construction to perm loan. We specifically worked with Jeff Starcher and his team. Overall they were amazing!!! If you're building a custom home I highly recommend them.

Ryan and his team had great communication throughout the entire process. The process was online, streamlined and timely. Ryan explained our options so that we could make the best decision on on Refi. We were told Settlement would take about 30 minutes, it took 15 min. exactly since we had reviewed and e-signed a number of documents ahead of time. Thank you so much!

Mr. Starcher was a pleasure to work with, always quick to respond to emails or phone calls, and willing to follow through on questions or tasks throughout the entire process.

I have refinanced my home several occasions since 1984 and working with Ryan Strickland at Sandy Spring Bank has been the best time. He is Knowledgeable, very helpful, and a pleasure to work with. A very positive experience. I recommend him tremendously to help with your banking needs.

Trustworthy and knowledgeable. I had the esteemed pleasure of working with Jeff Starcher on a construction to perm loan and to say it was a great experience would not do it justice. He was able to meet extremely tight deadlines, gave us realistic expectations, was extremely knowledgeable and made an otherwise stressful process seamless and pleasant. My husband and I are extremely grateful to him and his team and will definitely use his services in the future.

Jeff and his team are very helpful and patient with the whole loan process that took considerably long to complete. Highly recommended!

Ryan Strickler is an excellent Mortgage Banker!! He provided outstanding service when my husband and I decided to refinance our home. It was the best experience we have ever had in regards to refinancing our home!! I would definitely recommend Ryan Strickler to my family and friends. Sincerely, Elia

For construction mortgages, Sandy Spring Bank is a great bank to work with. They are responsive, quick, and effective. They closed on my construction mortgage in well less than two months.
