Our History

"From little acorns, mighty oaks do grow"

American Proverb

Envision Mortgage Solutions was founded on a fundamental idea in 2003 by Neil Coleman, already a sucessful mortgage veteran. Due to an unwavering committment to key principles, for both himself and his company, Envision has blossomed; growing, in 2004, to a staff of 20 Mortgage Advisors and essential support staff who share those beliefs and strive to meet, and even surpass, those ideals.
In 2005 Envision bore spring fruit with the opening of a new branch in Schaumburg, IL and expanded further with the addition of corporate suites in the fall of 2005.

Careful attention to the needs, goals and dreams of our clients is already beginning to show signs of further growth for 2006. We hope you will stay with us to enjoy not only our continued growth but also the benefits, confidence and comfort that a well established company can offer anyone seeking to make their dreams come true. Whether you need a mortgage to purchase a home or a new mortgage to extend your reach and options - Making dreams come true is what we do...
