ah, waleed delawari -- if you are lucky, you run into a professional like this one. waleed helped us buy our dream-home and made the whole transaction as stress-less and uncomplicated as is humanly possible in a situation that is otherwise and inherently stressful. we did not call him "the wizard" for nothing :-). not only is he knowledgeable, responsive and consummately professional, he is also an all-around good human being who wants to see you happy and will go out of his way to make that happen. and we are not the only ones who know this. let me illustrate what i mean: when the seller's agent of the house we bought heard that we are working with waleed, he actually recommended us to the owners on the strength of his previous experiences with waleed. the man is known, liked and respected in the real estate community. and believe me, *that* is an asset worth having on your side. so thank you waleed -- without you, we would not be living in this beautiful house we now call our own. read more

On behalf of the Roth family and our re-fi, I cannot thank Waleed and his team at Delaware Pacific enough for helping us land a superb (and probably once in a lifetime) rate. With his efficient and timely service and an especially attuned focus to the details in crunching numbers to the penny, we were able to close in just under 30 days! Quite simply, Waleed is a numbers guy and he was recommended to us on a short list of recommended loan groups. This skill set helped provided clarity at key points in working through to closing. He always took time to answer any questions we may have had along the way and made himself entirely available for any concerns we might have encountered. We also greatly appreciated the fact that Waleed never pressured us throughout the process. This re-fi enabled me to get some much needed money back in my pocket (with two kids) and most importantly keep our long term horizon for staying in our home here in Pasadena. Thank you again Waleed! read more

Between the time we started the home purchase process and actually ended up closing on a sale took almost nine months. During that time we made offers on four properties, worked with several different real estate agents, required some creative thinking and changed loan amounts several times. When we finally got into escrow the seller threw curve balls at us every other week. From start to finish Waleed was there to keep the process running smoothly to meet our goals. He was always available, patient and above all had solid isight into what it takes to get the job done. After having made over a dozen real estate purchases in the past, from HUD Repos to For Sale by Owner, Waleed has set the example that I will compare all other lenders with. Rather than risk the potential that another lender may not be up to the task, Waleed will be my go to guy. read more

We had problems with our first lender, after it became clear they wouldn't be able to close our loan. We were referred to Waleed by a friend who told us he was responsible, creative, diligent and would follow through promptly. We were not disappointed. Waleed took a look at the same financials we had given to the prior lender and confidently told us not to worry. And he came through, having our loan ready substantially before we were set to close. He was prompt in his return phone calls, efficient in his explanations, and had several loan options which he presented to us. Needless to say, our loan closed without any hitches whatsoever, and thanks to Waleed, we are in our dream home now, with a very affordable rate. I would recommend Waleed without a second thought. read more

I was referred to Delaware Pacific from an agent during my home search in Los Angeles. I'm from New York and don't like to deal with bullshit and all the crap that usually comes with lenders. I am NOT a first time home buyer and knew the ropes and what to expect from lenders. I wound up working with Waleed, Nadine, and his team on securing a bulk loan for an investment property. They were really wonderful and bent over backwards to get the deal done. It went very smoothly and was completed in 30 days over a holiday which is very impressive. The team was quick, speedy, and Waleed was honest/blunt in regards to the rate and what he can do, which is important during the stressful process. I will definitely use him again the next time I purchase a property. read more

My wife and I were referred to Waleed when we bought our home 10 years ago and have since worked with him a couple of times. He and his staff are incredibly attentive and patient, and they follow-up when they say they will. We have never had a bad experience and that continues up to today. We reached out again to Waleed at Delaware Pacific right when the Covid craziness happened, hoping to take advantage of the low rates. Waleed was an excellent guide, updating me on what had changed (and some important stuff about locking in rates has changed) and what that meant for us in the process. The moment the time was right, Waleed got us started right away on the loan process and we were able to lock in a fantastic rate. read more

Wow! What a wonderful group of people to do business with. Waleed and his team were the most responsive organization. Never were our questions left unanswered; replying to all our emails within minutes. Because of HOA complications our first mortgage attempt (through another lender) did not fund. The seller's agent referred us to Waleed, assuring us his office would find a way to make it happen. And here we are today, first time property owners earning equity in the high end real estate market of Los Angeles. Again, enough gratitude cannot be expressed regarding our treatment by Delaware Pacific. It's just beginning to dawn on us that we are now home owners. What a great feeling! read more

Waleed is the MAN. Seriously...the whole lending process is crazy intimidating and super cryptic, and Waleed has a way of making you feel at ease and completely taken care of. He explains stuff in a way that is digestible and comprehensible, and you can tell he's going to bat for you behind the scenes, getting you the best loan possible. Not only that but his staff is super friendly and wonderful to work with! Jennifer is especially friendly and has a great personality, which helps immensely when dealing with something as stressful as spending most of the money you have to your name. Thanks Waleed for everything. We couldn't be sitting in our dream home right now without you! read more

Couldn't be more please w/Waleed, Jennifer & his entire team @ Delaware Pacific! Waleed walked my realtor & I through the entire process from sending him all the paperwork needed, to the final signing of the docs. He was easily available & made sure to always call me back if I had a random question etc. Jennifer was also extremely helpful & always there to answer any questions as well. They were able to fund my wife & I's loan in less than 30 day's during the holidays! Couldn't have gone smoother honestly. I will recommend Waleed & his team to all my friends & family members looking to purchase a home in the future. Keep up the great work Delaware Pacific! read more

Waleed & Team were straight to the point and didn't cloud any conversations with any unnecessary information - which is exactly what I needed when I was looking for a home loan. They provided me with everything I needed with my first home loan and made the process easy to understand and finalize. I had a million questions and they never hesitated to answer any of them and made sure I fully understood everything. And in the end, Waleed & Team got me a great rate! The Team also made sure I was on schedule with a very easy and friendly reminder & alert system during the home buying process. Buying a house is stressful and they made it stress free! read more

I have to say this was the best re-finance experience I've had with anyone over the past 10 years. They offered the best rates compared to the big banks. Waleed was very knowledgeable, communicative, easy to reach and funded my loan faster than I thought was possible! On the few occasions I emailed him, I received a response that answered all of my questions and concerns promptly. He even took the time to explain the entire different loan options and helped me select the one the fit my needs best. I have and will continue to recommend Delawari Financial Group to all of my friends and family. read more

Working with Waleed & his team was a pleasure from start to finish. My husband and I moved from overseas so our case required special care and attention. Waleed came highly recommended to us by friends who said that he was extremely good at helping in any situation, and we certainly found this to be the case. Very polite and friendly correspondence throughout. Nice to know you are dealing with somebody who is approachable. He was very careful to make sure our money was being handled correctly and worked to get us the best rates possible. Would definitely recommend to anyone! read more

We heard about Waleed and Delaware Pacific from a friend's recommendation, and we're so glad we reached out. Buying a home can feel overwhelming, but Waleed explained everything to make sure we understood the process, and answered every question we had. He and his team were always available and accommodated our schedules. In fact, one thing we really appreciated was when he met us at home to sign the loan docs and notarize, instead of having us drive all the way to the escrow company. Reach out to Waleed and Delaware Pacific--you'll be in good hands! read more

Waleed has provided an excellent level of service and was able to meet a very tight funding deadline. He -as well as his office staff- are personable and very responsive whether by phone or e-mail. He took the time to explain the process to me and walked me through the mortgage documentations to make sure I understand before I sign. If you are looking for a mortgage or refinance opportunities, I would definitely recommend dropping Waleed a line and see what he can offer. He works with several different lenders to ensure you get a competitive rate. read more

Waleed and his team made my first experience of buying a home as seamless as possible. He worked quickly to make the magic happen within an intense 21-day escrow. From my first introduction to him via an agent over a weekend, he was helpful and insightful to speak with, and effective in getting the job done months later when the right house came along. He provided competitive rates and Jennifer on his team was always especially pleasant and responsive. In gratitude for their professional, effective and friendly service! read more

Waleed recently helped us get through a really tough closing process... there were a lot of obstacles and extenuating circumstances and he always took the time to explain everything to us thoroughly and made sure we felt comfortable and secure in the process. He ALWAYS responded to calls and emails promptly, and really by the end of the process we felt like he was more of a friend than "just" our mortgage guy (we called him A LOT!!). We can't say enough good things about him and definitely highly recommend him!! read more

Waleed and team are fantastic. I had a mortgage refi and I'm very happy with the final results - I got a great new low rate. There were a few challenges during the process and Waleed handled everything calmly and professionally. I could tell he was working hard to get everything completed, even through the challenges. He was always available to answer my questions and kept me informed throughout the process. I would highly recommend Waleed to anybody looking into the mortgage process. read more

I have the highest regard for Waleed Delawari. He recently managed the refinance of my mortgage. Waleed efficiently handled every matter along the way. He is very professional and thorough. He is accessible and whenever I had a question he got right back to me. Handling the finances is new to me as my husband recently passed away. Waleed was patient and very helpful throughout the process. He is exactly the type of mortgage professional I needed to move ahead confidently. read more
