    Thanks for making our dream a reality Benji!
    Joshua C.

    You've seen the commercials. You've seen his face on the billboards and on busses passing by. You've seen the social media posts and all the other goofy stuff. It's all mostly true. There really is ONLY ONE BENJI. Let me tell you what you DONT see. You don't see his heart. His passion. His generosity. His kindness. What no commercial or billboard can tell you is that he genuinely cares for people. His clients are his family. His family is his life. He truly lives to help people. My wife and I have been been married for over 20 years. We have lived in different states and even different countries. Yet owning a home seemed like such a surreal dream meant for only other people. One night in bed my wife was looking at house dreaming about "Some Day" and we both thought out loud "why?" Why can't we buy a house. We started talking, we'd seen the commercials. So we thought let's set up a meeting. It's free, it can't hurt, let's go see the Benji guy! How could we know that meeting would change our life?! We set up the meeting and from the minute you walk in the door it feels like you're at a friends house. Benji took his time, answered all our questions, never looked surprised or doubted what we could do. He was upfront and truly listened to our concerns. AND NO! Our credit was NOT over 700+ and NO we did not have 20k+ for a down payment. We did use a VA loan and we did have to work hard to get in position. We got our pre-approval and things just took off from there. Once we had our agent and started the process Benji and his whole team were a HUGE support. Mike & Lyndsey were awesome as well. AND NO! Benji does not work every part of your loan. Don't be silly while there's only one Benji he is also only one man. But his team is great. They all want you to understand and succeed. Do your family a favor, call Benji. Even if you think you don't have enough cash down, even if your credit is still under construction, he will not mock you. He wants you to be part of the family. He wants to help you. Even if it's getting a plan to get on track. Again there's a lot of lenders, and you love seen the commercials, but there is ONLY ONE Benji and you can't see his heart so go see him in person. Thanks Benji, the Cannelora family is certainly grateful!

    Our first home!

    See all

    Spoke with Benji about pre-approval for our new home. He was polite , detailed and not pushy. Now all we have to do is find a home to buy!

    If you are looking for a mortgage broker in Redding, stop searching and call Pete Metz at Von…read moreMortgage. I compared him against online lenders and local banks, and he beat them without hesitation. The difference in knowledge and strategy was obvious from the start. When he pulled my credit, we discovered an error that other lenders never mentioned. Pete walked me through fixing it and completed a rapid rescore so my credit reflected accurately within days. That alone made a huge difference in my loan options. Pete delivers true old school service with integrity and professionalism. His office is beautiful, easy to find, and welcoming. The process was smooth, efficient, and actually enjoyable. I would recommend Pete and Von Mortgage to anyone who wants the best possible loan terms and someone who genuinely advocates for their clients.

    Von Mortgage removed my review somehow. I reposted it as follows. I believe this is not the first…read moretime they have removed people's negative reviews. Besides, most of the positive reviews you see under their profile are FAKE. For example, "Amy C" is the Amy I complained about in my review. She works for Von Mortgage, you can see her profile on Von Mortgage's website. Following is my original review: They are very unprofessional people, especially Amy. Amy knows nothing about mortgages. She will make your mortgage process a nightmare! I was charged $2000 for the "mortgage orientation fee" and "underwriting fee" which most lenders don't charge. What worse is they will tend to give you a higher rate even you have a great credit score. After all, they will sell your mortgage to a terrible mortgage management company in a few days. Run and check other lenders before they loot you!

My home purchase was... let's just say... not your standard, smooth-sailing transaction. Think: family drama, funding mayhem, title company miscommunications, and a few "are we seriously still doing this?" moments. I was this close to throwing in the towel more than once. But Mandy and Jennifer? They never gave up. They fought hard, found a path forward when I couldn't see one, and kept strategizing until the deal was done. And you better believe they had a Plan A, B, C... and D ready to go. What makes them even more amazing is that they're not just insanely good at what they do--they're masters at preparing you for the process, communicating every step of the way, and somehow making you feel like you're texting with friends instead of trudging through a loan process. I'm honestly going to miss our silly chats and messages! Because of them, I'm holding the keys to my new home. And while I can never truly thank them enough, I will shout it from the rooftops: if you're financing a home, call Mandy and her team. End of story.

When looking for help, it's even harder to know where to start. There are plenty of others who advertise on the radio, billboards and ads who make promises but are probably nothing but snake oil. But Dori doesn't need that because her work speaks volume. I was first time home buyer struggling to find a start. I asked friends and family and many pointed to Dori. Dori is honest, meticulous, patient and caring. She really wants the best for you and guides you on every step of the way. Her rates are competitive and she makes sure you get the best possible. She watches the mortgage rates daily and offers the best options for you. Even after the purchase, she keeps in regular contact making sure we don't fall for scams and keeping us straight. Dori really goes out of her way to provide the best service and outclasses the rest. I recommend Dori with no reservations and look forward working with her again. Do the right thing; be a man (or a woman), contact Dori.
