We closed on two properties this year, and the entire process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. He goes above and beyond, always available to answer questions, explain details, and guide me step by step. His knowledge, patience, and dedication show he truly cares about his clients' success--not just closing deals. Because of him, I've been able to build generational wealth and give my son a better future. I'm already planning for the next property with full confidence he'll get it done. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, hardworking, and results-driven--this is the person you need on your team. Highly recommend!

Seth and his entire team were absolutely amazing to work with. Just really top-notch people…read more We explored several options, and Seth was incredibly patient the entire time-helping me run numbers more than once, compare different scenarios, and think through what would actually make the most sense for our situation. I never felt pressured, and he always took time to answer questions and explain things clearly. What stood out most to me was how accessible and responsive he was. No matter how many questions I had, he was always willing to help. Even when he was going on vacation, he reached out beforehand to let me know, made sure I had another point of contact if needed, and even said he'd still be checking messages while away. That level of communication and follow-through is rare. I'd genuinely recommend Seth and his entire team to anyone looking for someone knowledgeable, patient, and invested in helping people find the best fit-not just get you a loan. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Seth and his team again or recommend them to friends and family.

Can't thank them enough.

I'm a customer. When you need to move on a refi or having…read morefinancing ready to go on a loan, you've usually made up your mind and these days, delays will cost you more. Acquiring solid financing, meaning your lender is anticipating your borrow begins with those people like Tom, Dawn, and Renae and the rest of C&S crew who can get you there by utilizing their knowledge and experience; and I mean really good experience, but yet staying connected and educating themselves and each other daily on the trends of the mortgage market. Their diligence to stay ahead of the game will be to your benefit. You can't just borrow anymore. If you don't know this, you should because you can lose your one chance at getting what you've worked so hard for by letting your loan app get run through the mill, so to speak, and it affecting your FICO. Some of us run real close between a decent score and a mediocre score, so don't throw away your FICO points on loose ends. Let this company package it nicely and most attractively. There is a lot of professional advocacy involved and intermingling between those colleague specialists involved in getting you that loan, and trusted relationships are at play in their circle of "know how's and know what's and know when's" so your loan application isn't flying around Willy Nilly in someone's internet space who cannot remember who you are by tomorrow. Many other companies have no personal interest nor liability to your securing money safely. It's a big risk and it's a real risk because your paperwork is moved via the internet to anyone they do not know. So it's not about speed as much as it is about completion. I myself, am not a wealthy borrower, but I am what you call a Quality Cheapskate; I want the best I can get for a fair price and Tom's humor and ability to communicate to me how to I can do that has given me a home that I thought I would never have again after divorce. Forget that; I'm better off than before. I have been a customer of this company for 10 years and Tom has never let me waste money because he does find the best way for his clients, and he's a guy who likes the big puzzle so a little maze never got in his way to bring a loan to completion. The one thing I do want to say, though they carry the complexities of accomplishing a good loan, as a client, it is soooo easy and most of your work you can do by scanning. There's very little or no running around. I have lived throughout the San Gabriel Valley as well as South OC and everything is done at home or on the phone and their system is very securely encrypted. Even the Notary can come to you if you want. I've met my Notary in front of a food truck in LA during lunch hour in DTLA while being a train commuter from Irvine. I just simply did not have the time so they sent the paper to me. I highly recommend this company and thee nicest people who work hard everyday and know how to relate to their diverse customer lifestyles, so there is no reason to think it will be impossible for you.

Not having met the staff at Gem Mortgage in Solvang, CA, I am writing a review from a business…read moreperspective. As the seller of a recent property transaction for which this lender provided 'pre-approved' funding to the buyer, I was not impressed with how the loan process was handled. Delays because of insufficient underwriting staff, caused needless anxiety and expense to both parties. At a time when mortgage rates are at an all-time low, and demand for new and refinance funds high, this lender was not prepared to handle the load thereby passing their inadequacies on to the customers involved. This is not good business. In light of the demands on essential businesses and those who were forced to cut staff or close completely in response to COVID-19, mortgage banking business increased. Lenders should have been hiring staff to meet demand, not the opposite. It's not likely I would recommend Gem Mortgage in Solvang, CA however, the banker did offer to "speak with the Seller" to explain the delays to our realtor, thus two stars. Thank you.

Turns out Chris is extremely knowledgeable in his field. Getting to know him in a few weeks solidified my trust in him as a person and his company. We were only browsing homes but quickly got an offer received. Chris switched gears quickly from the pre-approval process to the getting the actual loan. From our first meeting with Chris until the end, the level of service and professionalism was truly a 5 star experience. He took the time to educate us on the home buying process from start to finish. When our offer was accepted and we went into escrow, Chris was extremely resourceful every step of the way. Chris was always available if we had questions or concerns. The overwhelming process of home buying seemed to subside as Chris was sure to carefully explain each document with responsive emails and phone calls. Seriously, I'm not recommending to do this but if you were to call him at 2am , he would probably answer! That's how responsive he is. We are first time home buyers and I can't thank Chris enough for making this long and complicated process more enjoyable and become an amazing learning experience! Chris will be a resource for life as we will have questions about the housing market in years to come whether we refinance or take out a loan equity. Chris' rates are very competitive but not the absolute cheapest. I'm as cheap as they come but Chris and his expertise is worth every penny. You do not want to be cheap in your first home buying experience.

Other loan officers do it wrong and just let their clients go out with just a pre-qualification form, which isn't an accurate number of what a person can afford. Armando also helps keep all the necessary paperwork submissions stress-free. The truth is that part of the normal process of getting a home requires a lot of back and forth about income and bank statements, but Armando's great attitude makes these communications easy to have. He is very knowledgeable about the industry, organized, adaptable, and responsive to help clients navigate the complex loan process smoothly and build trust. As a non-citizen, I cannot give my trust away so easily. But Armando earned it. He even helped us get a better interest rate right before closing escrow, saving us thousands over the years. I am now the proud owner of a multi-family home in Los Angeles. The whole process took two months - si se pudo! And Armando is still available to answer any questions even after closing. Thank you, Armando. In two years, I will be circling back for more property once I can make another downpayment. But I am recommending everyone I know to him today. :)
