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!

My husband and I recently purchased a home with the help of Byron, Jinny, Derek and Russell. I…read morecould list a hundred reasons why I love this group so much, but a few that stood out are: 1. From day 1, they've been very honest and transparent and there was never any surprises that could push back our escrow. If they thought that we would have possible issues, they told us upfront and so we were always prepared for anything. 2. If it's your first time purchasing a house, terms and numbers are confusing. But they've explained everything to us so well. And if we found a house that we liked, all we need to do is send Byron the address and he would email us with the numbers which really prepared us for anything! 3. They're all easy to reach. I could email now and get a response in less than an hour, and if it's important, I could get a call back in minutes. 4. Customer service skills is unparalleled. 5. They give you cookies from Cravory cookies (which is to die for). And once Russell found out that we loved the cookies, they sent us another box! So if I could give them 10 stars, I would. We've had such a great experience with this team, and would highly recommend them to our friends and family.

I had been receiving detailed instructions and assistance from Byron Watson and his team on how to find the place - and they're located across from the Irvine Spectrum, on the 7th floor of the Smile Brands building in Irvine! As I was ushered into the office, I quickly saw that they were ready for my visit. I was greeted pleasantly by the staff and noticed a welcome board with my name on it - wow, impressed already. After some pleasantries, we got some water and got to work. Byron was extremely helpful and patient when explaining every detail of the home buying process that we could get to in our two (2) hour time frame. This meeting definitely increased my confidence and willingness to buy a home, and I'm glad Byron and team were there to show me the first step! Will remain in contact with Fairway and Byron throughout the purchase and financing process. A very professional and informative experience that is really valuable - definitely recommend to anyone that's new to this stuff as well :)

An absolutely fantastic experience with Full Circle Home Loans. My first person of contact was…read morewith Tiffany who was incredibly informative, authentic, and responsive. After talking with Seth, there was zero doubt in my mind this is the team I want to be a part of. The group has been outstanding from beginning to end with getting the second home loan. It feels incredibly personal and they are most definitely there to hold your hands and encourage you. I had a bit of a panic attack one day during the process and reached out to both Seth and Tiffany. They were able to bring me back down to Earth, reassure me, and bring me back to feeling excited. This was exactly what I needed. Short term rentals are still very new to me but if you need a team to get you through this, this group is the one. Cannot wait to continue to do work with them.

Can't thank them enough.

Julie was professional, responsive, and on top of everything throughout the entire transaction. Communication between lending and escrow was excellent, and whenever we needed an update or had a question, she was quick to respond and kept everything moving forward. As an Escrow Officer, I truly appreciate working with a lender who understands the importance of communication, timing, and teamwork. 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! Thank you, Julie, for being such a great lending partner!

**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?
