Underpromised and over delivered! I was buying property in Palm Springs California to you it as Airbnb rental. Ever property I had to fight for with other buyers and every property sellers had multiple offers. I had no choice but to go with hard money loan. I called Lending Bee at recommendation of my realtor and spoke with Vladimir Isperov. I go pre approved the same day and I was assured that they will close the transaction in less then 2 weeks. Lending Bee actually closed it in a week! Very pleased and grateful to entire team at Lending Bee! read more

Lending Bee - Property back yard - Mortgage Brokers Near Me - North Hollywood, California

Boris' team contacted me to "Buy" my property. For weeks they pushed to sign a listing agreement. When I said "No"... They then sent big bad Boris in who after 3 minutes on the phone told me, "To go F*ck myself", and to, "Go talk to my girlfriend". Whatever that means. He's not a professional. The reason why all the loans below are not funding is because he doesn't actually have any money. Plus all the "Good" reviews seems to be Russian names. Weird right? Anyways, good luck Boris and F@*K you too sweet heart... :) read more

Great service, amazing and efficient staff! Super professional and helpful loan processors! Highly recommend this team!!!

After getting turned down a few times for a home loan I was referred to Lending Bee by a friend , they helped me getting the loan I needed , without their help I don't think I would have been able to get the property I wanted. They were extremely professional and reliable, always available to answer my calls. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to work with truly amazing people and an amazing company ! read more

Lending Bee helped us to buy our gorgeous house! They were able to get us the best-possible rate on our first home mortgage loan. Our loan was declined by Bank of America, Waichovia, etc... We had no hope left when our friend recommended us Lending Bee. The brokers are so professional and friendly. They made our home buying experience very easy and with their help we got our first mortgage loan through GMAC! Thank you Lending Bee! I will highly recommend this company if you need home mortgage loans or need refinance your mortgage. read more

Lending Bee - Thank you Lending Bee for helping us to get out gorgeous townhouse!!! - Mortgage Brokers Near Me - North Hollywood, California

Let me just start by saying if it wasn't for the Lending Bee, I would never have been able to purchase my most recent property. I was going through the process of getting a conventional loan and unfortunately, I was unable to qualify. It was getting close to the time that I would have been falling out of escrow and losing my intial deposit. I came to Lending Bee, and within days my loan was funded. I have since re-financed with them to take advantage of today's historically low interest rates. The process was quick, painless and I was informed of the status each step of the way. I have since referred many friends and relatives to The Lending Bee and will continue to do so in the future. They are great within the community and do the best they can to help as many people as possible. I know it's impossible to make everyone happy, but it doesn't stop them from trying. Any real estate transaction is stressful, but they made it as pleasant as it could possibly be. They even sent a notary straight to my house to sign my loan docs for convenience! read more

This place is a joke. Spoke to Vladimir who asked for some information and said he will call back. I've been calling and right away getting a text saying "I am on the phone and will call you right back". Do you think I got a call back? Nope. I tried again, and he just doesn't answer the phone. Stay away. read more

Lending Bee is nothing like my last lenders, that sucked me dry for small technicalities that we both knew were going to get taken care of. Communication is prompt and clear. They pretty much saved me, quickly, from my last loan,they are a great company to be with while you look for a long term solution for your lending needs. read more

We just finished refinance and can't be happier with Alex And the whole company! Very professional and knowledgeable staff! Highly recommend for all your loan needs read more

It's pretty obvious that the majority of these reviews are bogus, way to spot that out Yelp and filter all of the comments! If you are looking for a mortgage broker, I would recommend you stay as far away from Lending Bee as possible. I am not the type of person who writes negative reviews, but I feel the need to warn people about this company and how they operate. The lack of communication, professionalism and honesty throughout the 5 months it took them to get our loan funded was beyond belief. We were referred to Lending Bee from another broker. Lending Bee initially went with a bank to fund our loan that was closing its lending unit (we found this out after a couple months) Our broker told us that the lender was finishing their pipeline and that we would have no problem getting it funded. We were extremely diligent when it came to their requests for bank statements, pay stubs, financials etc. and responded within minutes. We heard two more days until it would be funded at least 20 times. Over a month went by and our deadline for closing escrow was nearing. We finally got loan docs, only to find that the bank they were dealing with wasn't the lender, it was a company called LBC Capital Fixed Income Fund, which is also run by Boris of Lending Bee. It turns out; they had no intention of funding the loan. They just wanted to buy more time to find a lender who would fund it. Furthermore, the day the bogus loan docs went out, our broker left the country for a couple weeks without telling us. Almost 3 months later, a lot of stress, some nasty exchanges with Lending Bee and its employees, over $10,000 in penalties from the seller, and Lending Bee finally got a legitimate lender. In numerous phone conversations, they assured us that they would cover some of the penalties we incurred, but they never did. We then came to find out that part of the loan docs were filled out wrong and we had to come up with an additional 16k to escrow to cover their commission. They told us that they would give us a check back for part of that amount. We asked to get it that in writing because of how poorly they handled the loan and they sent us a release of liability form, which we didn't sign. It was such a poorly written release that no one in their right mind would sign. I could continue on and on with other misleading tactics Lending Bee used, but I think you get the point.. read more

Not a good company to deal with,they dont care about the customer,just the money they make,total rip off.Just go on ripoffreport.com to read more,i had a similar experience and we ended up in foreclosure because of these clowns! read more

We just bought a house and used Lending Bee to get a loan. After speaking directly to Wells Fargo, Chase and a few more banks we realized quickly that it wouldn't work for us. Getting approved for a loan is really difficult and lengthy process. Our agent recommended Lending Bee. We worked with Boris Dorfman and vladimir Rozumny. We got financed quickly, 10 days early for a Jumbo loan. Our offer was approved while we were on vacation and the process was really smooth and the communication was great. Our loan was 1/4% lower then what was advertised and what was promised. read more

Stay away from this company. We had a very similar experience as Peter G's negative review. Except with good credit. The Lending Bee was stringing us along and telling us that the loan is about ready to fund "Any day now". A 45 days later, the loan still didn't fund. They had mentioned that there was some missing docs. We had sent these docs 3 times. Then they stopped communicating for over two weeks. We finally decided to drop this company due to bad faith since after almost 3 months, the loan didn't fund. The best decision ever, thanks to "Peter G's" review. We went to a new company and they were able to fund the loan in 30 days. Upon canceling the Loan, the loan agent "Eugene B", for the first time in two weeks, responding back in a couple minutes sounding surprised. Note, there are 18 flagged (Suspicious) reviews for this site if scroll to the bottom of Yelp for this company. One of the 18 flagged 5 star reviews was from Eugene B. There is another 5 Star Review from "Eugene B" as well that made it into the non-flagged list. I don't know if this is the same person as the loan agent, but it is suspicious. If you do decide to go with this company (and I recommend not) please take the following precautions: 1. If the loan starts running late, please contact them daily to get status reports. If you feel it is going fishy, I recommend jumping ship and going to another loan company. Also, at the start of the loan, get a promise from them "In writing" of when they will fund by. Ask them if there are problems on their end, will they cover your expenses. Later, I did talk with Boris, the Owner of the Lending Bee, and asked if there was anything they could do to "Make it Right." This included, paying for the appraisers/Inspectors for the buyer and the cost of loss of Mortgage/HOA/Property Tax for the Seller. All Boris said that he would do is keep the loan open to see if they could close it. The loan never closed. read more

Thank you Lending Bee for working hard on my loan and making it possible for me to buy my first house. I found a house that was just perfect for me, but after trying to deal with a couple of banks there was little hope left to close the deal. Per recommendation of a friend, I decided to give Lending Bee a try as the last shot. And as the result, everything was done just on time and worked out for me. The bank that they set me up with turned out to be great too. read more

My 2nd deal with Lending Bee. First one was a refy in Sept 2012, and the next was a loan for a house purchase. Although the refy process took longer than I expected - I got a great rate at the end. The new house loan was much faster to obtain, and Lending Bee communicated effectively all the steps in the process. If you are looking for a loan broker - give them a shot. read more

This was my first refinance, and I couldn't be more happier with the service I received: Iryna is very knowledgeable and professional - she got me the rate I simply couldn't refuse ;-) The whole deal from start to finish literally took couple of weeks... I would definitely do business with Lending Bee again... read more

I shopped many loan companies for the best deal. Lending Bee gave me the best rate, did the loan on time and everything was done headache free. Irina is the best, she handled my loan from start to finish and everything was done as I expected. I would use them again any day. read more

Lending Bee proved to be quick, professional, and honest compared to other brokers and large financial institutions, they were able to close our escrow on time with reasonable costs. We were trying to negotiate with other brokers and lenders before and quickly realized that Lending Bee is our best bet. Alex and his staff were prompt, and most importantly , ALWAYS honest with us. I would definitely recommend Lending Bee as a mortgage broker to anyone as they were the only ones during our home buying process that seemed to genuinely want to help with this stressful process. Thanks for all our help Lending Bee, keep up the good work ! read more

I am a Realtor who was representing the seller on a transaction and Boris initially said they wanted a 40 day escrow. The seller requested a 30 day escrow and Boris was able to get it done, and not only that, we closed early! I was very impressed with Boris and Lending Bee!

Aka LBC Capital. This is the best place I have found for hard money and flip loans. Super fast and excellent term. I highly recommend them

After my second transaction with Lending Bee I decided to finally write a review. For both transactions I used Iryna Dyakun. She was fantastic is walking me through the entire process and best of all everything played out exactly how she said it would. On the first transaction right before closing, the seller's agent and I spoke and he mentioned that his conversation with Iryna was a huge determining factor in his recommendation to his clients to go with our offer. Iryna was very proactive in getting missing data by going on state web sites, etc... She was on point in everything she said and did. The only issue I had during the first transaction was the finance company delaying the funding by 3 days. It caused some headaches, but again Iryna and my agent both worked together to make sure that the seller's agent and seller were aware and ok with the delay. At the end, we got the place and a good rate with it. I attribute a large portion of the success of our transaction on the efficiency and determination of Lending Bee and especially Iryna. read more

Alex and everyone else at Lending Bee was fantastic when my husband and I were purchasing a couple of investment properties.

After shopping around for a loan, I came across Lending Bee. Irina who works there, provided excellent service and got me financed. What should have been a painful process was easy and fast. Irina did all the hard work and got me a great rate. If you need a loan or a refi, don't hesitate to call the Lending Bee and ask for Irina. read more

I was looking for an investment property for quite some time, and in today's market especially, if you see something you like you have to jump on it. When I finally found the perfect property, the agents and Lending Bee helped get my offer approved. Unfortunately, the bank took their time in the processing of my loan. I had removed my contingencies and the closing date was rapidly approaching. Meanwhile, there was not much progress being made on the loan. With little options left and my deposit to be lost, Lending Bee was able to get me private financing and close the transaction within 7 days! I have since, re-financed with Lending Bee to a conventional loan, with the low interest rates that were available. Lending Bee did a great job in communicating with me and giving updates along the way. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for real estate professionals in the area and will continue to come to them with any real estate related items. read more

I recommend this lending company to every person who wants to have a great customer service and fast loan .

Thanks to Lending Bee we were able to get a great loan in less then the time we expected to fund. I worked with Alex and Vlad who were great. They were very easy to communicate with and were constantly on top of my loan. They were so thorough and were able to secure a loan for us in a short amount of time, allowing us to buy the home we really wanted. If I had gone with the other lender I spoke with then I would have most likely not been able to buy the home due to time constraints. They kept me updated all the time and never let any detail slip from their minds. We are so thankful for their hard work, diligence, and professionalism! I will definitely work with them again on any future loans! read more

We are first time home buyers who were very lucky to work with Boris Dorfman @ Lending Bee. We have finally closed escrow and will be forever grateful to you and Iryna for your efforts on closing the deal in a timely manner. Since it was our first experience buying a home, we had tons of questions and Boris was always there with answers. He was extremely responsive to our questions and concerns, and always answered our calls and emails promptly. Our loan was not an easy one with a few obstacles that came into play during escrow but Boris and Iryna easily helped navigate our way through everything and most importantly they got us funded. Before going with Lending Bee we went to another lender that turned us away and said that we were not qualified. We came to Boris and he reassured us that we are qualified and he will get us a loan. I can say with certainty, that we literally would not have gotten this home without him. I can't say thank you enough. I highly recommend Boris for all your lending needs. read more
