Jeff Magee has been writing loan applications since 1984--back when every loan application was written out by hand, and the average time for loan processing was sixty days! The mortgage business has been transformed by technology. Now, borrowers can apply on-line, credit reports are instantly available, and loans can be approved in less than one hour!

A native of River Forest, IL. (where he still resides today,) Jeff attended Oak Park-River Forest High School, and earned his BA degree at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

He has worked with thousands of borrowers in the local communities, personally closing over $500 million of mortgage loans.

While active in management of the company, he still devotes the majority of his time to giving personalized service to his mortgage applicants and to his primary business partners, the local real estate professionals.

Scott has worked for Mortgage Resource Group for the past fourteen years. He has an extensive educational, financial, business, and sales background that is uncommon in the mortgage industry. Having received an undergraduate degree from Cornell University and a masters degree in Finance and Marketing from the UCLA Graduate School of Management, Scott spent fourteen years as a Senior Product Manager, handling national accounts such as Sears and J.C. Penny.

In order to spend more time with his family (he traveled constantly) and still work with people and finance, Scott joined his friend and neighbor, Jeff Magee, at Mortgage Resource Group. His ability to work with the most complicated financial situations, his knowledge, and his interpersonal skills ensure that you will get the service you desire and the loan that you need.
