Gary Shellcrosslee has been helping customers achieve their home buying goals for more than 30 years. Throughout that time, he has acquired a vast knowledge of all lending products and is highly specialized in Colonial’s full suite of home loan programs including Conventional, FHA, VA, Construction, Jumbo, First-Time Homebuyer, Refinance and more.

Gary prides himself in providing superior customer satisfaction with clear communication and transparency throughout the entire home buying process. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from Southern Illinois University. Gary is happily married to his wife, Colleen and the couple share a son, JC.

Since 1952, we have provided home loans to thousands of homebuyers, and today we are among the largest mortgage lenders in the nation. What sets Colonial apart from most mortgage companies is retained servicing. Your loan won't be sold time after time to other companies, and that means you'll always know who to call with questions, for streamlined refinancing, or any other needs related to your loan.
