I finally got a wonderful guy named Trey Alvarez to help me out with my loan. I would hope that he finds another company to work for because he is amazing,he listenes and is with you 100% all the way. It took 4 months for this to get funded. Trey was only with me for a few weeks. However he did his job the way he knew it should be done. So this review is absolutly not for Sovereign lending, it's only for Trey Alvarez. Job well done Kiddo. I would leave 5 stars, but that would make Sovereign look good and They were hard to deal with. SO choose Trey, YOU WILL BE IN GOOD HANDS with him.

I've been getting regular spam emails from them and 3 phone calls just this week with VERY PUSHY people on the phone. They start out asking for me without first introducing who is calling. I ask who is calling and they say Sovereign and that they are calling because I expressed interest in a loan. NO, that was 3 years ago, and your information is very old. But quickly they say there are changes in the market and do I still live at xxxxxxxx. I tell them.... Look, I didn't use you 3 years ago because you were terrible during the initial phase, so I used someone else, so I don't need a loan and there is no possible way you can beat my interest rate since rates are now triple what I have. So leave me alone. They then say, but we like to give you a "free" review. I have to say again, take me off your spam list and stop calling. You are too pushy and rude and not listening to what I am saying, so I will never use you in the future. I hang up. Next day another idiot from their company calls. I have to block their calls. I suggest not using them. This desperation is a big red flag to me. They were terrible 3 years ago and still are today. Also agree with other reviewers that they are clearly very disorganized.

I normally don't write reviews on Yelp, but I really wanted to take the time to write this one because I hope it can help someone who is looking for a mortgage team they can truly trust and have a wonderful experience with, just like I did! Pam and Tai are beyond amazing. Purchasing a home is one of the biggest and most important decisions in life, and working with them made the entire process so much easier and less stressful for me. They were always on top of everything, kept me updated, and were always there whenever I had questions. Pam even answered my calls at night when I needed help. That really showed me how much they genuinely care about their clients. I never felt like I was bothering them or had to figure things out on my own. No matter what came up, I always felt like they had everything under control. Buying a house can be overwhelming, especially when there are so many things you don't understand about the process. But with Pam and Tai, I always felt safe and confident that I was in good hands. They were patient, responsive, knowledgeable, and truly went above and beyond for me. I'm so grateful that I found them and had them by my side throughout my home-buying journey. I honestly don't think I could have asked for a better team. If you're looking for a mortgage team you can trust, I highly recommend Pam and Tai. You won't regret working with them! Thank you so much, Pam and Tai, for everything you did for me!

Having a lending partner who stays engaged and works closely with escrow makes such a difference in getting everyone to a smooth and successful closing. Julie and the Aragon Lending Team were wonderful to work with, and I would absolutely recommend them. I look forward to working together again on many more transactions!

**2nd update. After posting the update, since I hadn't heard anything back. I received a hostile…read moretext telling me he's "done with me" and will not help in removing the inquiry. This is the customer service you will be receiving. There's no kindness, no consideration. I have NEVER had this experience before. Again, others are to blame, but not the company. 9/28/26---Update---This was in fact another HARD inquire, as stated on my credit report, which I pulled. As of this evening at 9pm, no updates. Nothing has been resolved, even though this is the error of this company. I didn't send a threating email. I told them I'd be leaving a review so others would know to stay away from a company that has a motto of "we care" and "hold us to our word" yet when you try to address their error, they're very defensive and want to put the blame on the customer/potential customer. Calling me late in the evening and pressuring me to remove a review that is based solely on my experience with this company is threating and illegal. You can't mess up people's credit and deny all responsibility, and force them to lie. I'm not the only person who has had a horrible experience with this company. I have the date the credit was pulled again, and it's listed as a HARD inquiry, no matter how hard this company's owner tries to deny it. It's simple, you want a good review, you provide excellent customer service. Why would I be making up the fact that my credit score took a hit, Optimum did this, when they weren't authorized to do so. I have my email from the new "Madi" loan officer. She told me that she would be using the paperwork/credit report info from the previous loan officer (who somehow just vanished into thin air) when I asked if she'd be running my credit again, she said no, yet they did that the SAME DAY (even though I DID NOT tell her I wanted to continue working with her). Robert told me it was due to human error in the begin of his many texts, then tried to blame it on me. Avoid this company at all costs. I will not be bullied into removing my review. Until there is a good faith effort to correct their obvious mistake this honest and horrible experience will stay. I have no problem leaving a good review, when it's warranted. I do not leave fake reviews, and will not be pressured into leaving one here. Fannie Mae did not pull anything, this company's name shows up 2 time on my "inquires" list, because they did it 2 times. I also didn't get a loan with them, so why are they even continuing to have access to my information?
