My hometown is Antioch, Illinois, and I have been an area resident all of my life. I believe it is important to work with a loan officer who is familiar with the area and the market, not to mention someone who is invested in the community. I have also helped customers in many states across the U.S. When I’m not busy helping my customers find the home of their dreams or refinancing them into the lowest rate possible, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. Favorite pastimes include good food, good wine and good shopping!

We recently took out a bridge loan to buy a condo, and our loan officer, Julie Ano, was wonderful in helping us through the entire application and closing process. The personal attention and care she provided us, including giving us her personal cell number, was above and beyond. This is representative of the kind of service we have always received at First American Bank and is one of the many reasons we have been customers for 27 years. We cannot thank her enough!
Julie was very easy to work with and it was a positive experience with no stress. Thank you Julie.
Julie was vwey knowledgeable throuthout the entire process and patient when it came to documents.
