Hey!
I like your entry #5 and 7. They are clean and simple, but have some good design qualities.
I like the logo portion with the text in grey's tones in #5. Looks good. I think it needs something more to make it pop or have more unique quality to it. The arrows also give an investment finance persona, which we are a mortgage company, which doesnt line up perfectly. BUT, I do like where it is headed and the colors.
As for entry #7, the font is great. I also like the check mark idea with the M. Really cool.
I think entry #7, could be more bold somehow. Not sure what.
Between #5 and #7, you have something coming for sure. :)
Thanks again. Have a great day.
