Gujarati-speaking loan officers in Illinois

As of 2026-10-28, LenDb lists 3 loan officers licensed in or based in Illinois whose lender pages say they speak Gujarati. The top-ranked are Hetul Thakkar (Loan Factory), Arpan Shah (JPMorgan Chase Bank (Chase Home Lending), Chicago) and Nabila Wadwani (JPMorgan Chase Bank (Chase Home Lending), Chicago). Ranking is lender-neutral: a license in IL, branch location, experience and profile completeness. Nobody pays for placement. Languages come only from loan officers' own lender pages, and most lender pages do not list languages. A loan officer missing from this list may still speak it: not listed means not stated, not that they do not speak it.

How this list is ranked

A loan officer is listed when their own lender page lists Gujarati. Loan officers are included when a IL license is confirmed with the state regulator (check mark), IL is listed on their lender page, or they work at a bank or credit union (likely federally registered; verify at NMLS). Then branch location, experience and profile completeness. No paid placement. Methodology.

Same list as JSON: /api/v1/loan-officers?lang=gu&state=IL. Not a lender. Not a referral service. Verify licenses at NMLS Consumer Access.
