REFERENCE PORTFOLIO

Laraine Fisher, Vice President 914-***-****)

Bank of America, N.A

“Erol Ozkural brought a level of expertise with his vast mortgage knowledge that our financial Advisors

and Premier Bankers desperately needed in the Wealth Management department. He single handedly

designed and implemented a training program that made it easy for us to speak to and close affluent

customers. Our pull through ratio went up to 70%. He is well respected by the 15 employees who were

involved in the program.”

Cheryl Cohen, Vice President 914-***-****)

Indy Mac Bank

“Erol Ozkural I think knows by now that I am very critical and selective when it comes to working with

banks. I can honestly say you are the best professional we have the privilege to work with and would be

happy to recommend you to any company that is interested in hiring you. Everyone in my office

preferred to give you the business rather than the completion. You made yourself available 7 days a week

and worked into the late hours of the evening when necessary. He is creative, resourceful and relentless

in meeting his company’s growth and bottom line objectives; and firm but fair in expecting strong

support from vendors like Indy Mac.”

Francine Silberman, President 914-***-****)

Asset Center Inc.

Your ability to negotiate pricing issues, explain and resolve underwriting problems, and handle logistical

dilemmas make you a valuable resource to any organization. I regard you with high esteem as an

individual with strong character and an admirable work ethic, qualities which are rare in today’s

workplace.”

David Marinoff, Managing Director 914-***-****)

Americorp Funding

“Erol Ozkural has worked with us for the last five years. Over the years he has come through for all of us

here on many occasions and we are truly grateful. He has helped improve the bottom line revenue by taking

on many loans that in the past we would not even consider submitting on any lender, if it were not for his

expertise those loans would have been lost. His many and vast years make him a valuable asset not only to this

company but to other lenders and the industry as a whole. There is not one aspect of mortgage lending that he is

not an expert at. “In fact, it is said that everyone is replaceable – but when Chase closed down wholesale, it left a

void I am not sure can be filled. He is sorely missed.”
