We were initially matched with a different lender who only communicated via email, which ultimately led to us not being able to close. Thankfully, our realtor then paired us with Mario, and the difference was night and day. Right from the start, Mario gave us a call to clearly explain the entire process and patiently answered all of our questions. He is a true professional and an exceptional communicator. Having him keep my fiancée and me informed every single step of the way provided us with so much peace of mind. Thanks to Mario, my fiancee and I are enjoying our first home.

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!

Steve Lopez at Clear Mortgage Capital caught my attention because he advertises lower rates…read more Unfortunately, that turned out to be misleading, as there was no follow-through once I actually engaged him. After I sent him my financial documents to get pre-qualified for a property I was submitting an offer on, he stopped responding. I followed up multiple times by email, text, and phone. When he did respond, he repeatedly said he would call me back, but he never did -- this happened twice. Because of this lack of follow-through, I lost the opportunity to move forward on a triplex I was trying to purchase. He only reached out again after I contacted one of his colleagues. When I later called him back, he again said he would call me in a few minutes and never did. At that point, I stopped reaching out because none of his promises were kept. This experience was extremely frustrating and unprofessional, and it cost me a real opportunity to purchase a property. I will not be using this lender for any future transactions.

He is also tall dark handsome and debonair (ok he asked me to say that). Seriously, I would highly recommend Steve Lopez!

An Exceptional Loan Officer…read more We cannot say enough great things about Montee Skorich with Optimum First Mortgage! We have had the pleasure of working with Montee for over 7 years, using him for home purchases and refinances, and he has consistently gone above and beyond every single time. Montee is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, responsive, and genuinely cares about his clients. He has always made what can be a stressful and complicated process feel smooth and manageable. Whenever we have a question, big or small, he is the first person we call because we know we can count on him to provide honest, knowledgeable advice. After working with him for so many years, we wouldn't trust anyone else with our lending needs. Montee has earned our business and our trust time and time again, and we would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for an exceptional loan officer. Thank you, Montee, for always taking such great care of us! We truly appreciate everything you have done for our family over the years. The Cunningham's

**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?
