Wendy was AMAZING! She was completely transparent through every step of the process and set the…read moreexpectations from the initial meeting. I cannot recommend her enough to my friends that are purchasing homes; shes responsive, dedicated, thorough, organized and communicative. We worked with another mortgage company for 6 months before I decided to explore another option. Just over a year ago my husband started his own business and the other company kept telling us we would not qualify on our own so we would need a co-borrower. So we kept putting it off, not to mention we were told we would only get approved for 250k with over 15% down (because he ran the numbers and that was "best case scenario"). We thought we were never going to be able to purchase a home in this lifetime, it was not a fun experience working with this other company. So I decided to look on Yelp for another person to talk to - Wendy Mariani popped up and she was a God send. Wendy did what the other company could not do in 60 days; completely amazing! She was straight with us and gave us the bottom line and completely delivered above and beyond what we expected. My husband and I did not need a co-borrower and were able to qualify for 375k with a significantly lower down payment (I cant remember how much exactly). She dug through the fine print and threw everything at the wall to see what would stick to make our situation work. This is exactly the kind of person you want helping you purchase your first (or 2nd or any) home. If you are serious about purchasing a home Wendy is the one person you want in your corner, there's a reason she is ranked so high its because she walks the walk.

Big thanks to Rob and his team (Tara and Dana) for managing the refinance of our home mortgage…read more Rob reached out to me and recommended several refinance options, including a "zero cost" option - which we selected. Their team did all the work and coordinated with the Lender and the Closing Agent. I really appreciated that Tara and Dana provided explanations for all of the documents we had to upload. We uploaded them to Rob's site and his team managed the upload to the Lender. The Lender's site was confusing and they were asking for quite a few things that Rob's people just took care of for us. If you are looking for a very professional, friendly team with exceptional competence, please reach out to Tamaela Mortgage.

Ying did a great job helping us understand and navigate the cash offer program. As soon as we…read moreprovided preapproval documents and statements, she was able to turn around with preapproval numbers within hours. This was also the case when we requested to add another preapproval for investment property (so that we could keep our options open). This helped to make sure nothing stood in the way of us being able to make competitive offers before any offer deadlines. We're scheduled to close on the short term loan in about 5 days, but all our financing details are already in order days ahead of schedule. She's knowledgeable, responsive, and was always willing to help. Was a great experience working with Ying and Flyhomes Mortgage.

I would highly recommend Shane Xiang from Flyhomes. Being a 1st time home buyer is not easy in a…read morehyper competitive real estate market like Seattle where things move very fast, and multiple offers come in before the offer review date. Shane always made himself available to tour houses when they were being listed. This gave us a chance to tour houses early giving us time to think and decide on next steps. Shane provided comprehensive review during the tours, covering quality, builder, materials used, appliances, potential upgrades/fixes, etc. that was very helpful while comparing different houses. The research team did a good job compiling the background details of the house and comp analysis. During the offer stage, Shane helped coming up with a strategy, but never put a lot of pressure, if we were not comfortable. He was patient during the entire process and always answered questions as soon as possible. He was always on top during the negotiations in terms of getting updates from listing agents which helped fine tune our offers. Even though it took a few attempts, Shane was always supportive and was open to discussing what could we do better next time. I learnt a lot during this process. Our winning offer was a Flyhomes cash offer, which was not the highest offer but the fast and smooth closing offered by the Flyhomes team secured the win for us. It's definitely worth a shot in this market. I would also like to thank Nicholas Anderson from Flyhomes Mortgage, who was very patient in running calculations multiple times before we made offers and helping with hypothetical scenarios. Having all the data before making offers helped us make informed decisions. That being said, there is always room for improvement. The app UI can improve a bit (in terms of how quickly new house listings notifications are sent out) and sync between multiple teams within Flyhomes can improve further. To conclude, I would highly recommend Flyhomes to 1st time home buyers in competitive real estate markets for a one stop shop solution.

Update base on the business reply : As their customer since…read moreFebruary, I can say their listing agent, selling agent , lender who got in contact with us are all very not helpful at all, not only they are blur on delivering messages and information, but also are just has no idea what they are doing at all, answering the wrong questions, not clear on the contract, trying to get away with problems- as they take your complains for nothings and all they can do to put this poor guy Jared out to say" oh sorry we can't really do anything " and that's all, sorry we take your money but can't do anything! Figure something out ! Their California agent Christina Felix is very unprofessional and only thing she did was stressing out the costumer , when we sign the contract she was very pushy and didn't explain clear enough. We agreed the seller stay in the property with 3 week rent back, but agent told them it's free without being clear to us , which on the contract shows as blank , which does not mean $0- and she later claims something on the contract says " licensed fee $0" means rent back free. They are using undirected term to trick people who doesn't understand the actual meanings. After we complain to the Flyhomes , they said they can't cover our loss, and not responsible for the mistake, and they start asking us if we want to back out the offer ( that way they can take our earnest money and buy the house , resale it, then make profit out of it ) we are beyond annoyed and very frustrated because we are in the middle of buying this house , we love the property, but Flyhome is just very unprofessional, and has no idea what they are doing, miscommunication with lender ,buyer , seller , ..etc . I highly suggest people who is thinking use them, think twice ! By the way , their mortgage interest rate is completely rip off, DO NOT Use them

We got quotes from several lenders when we were looking to buy our home. Paul's team had multiple…read moreissues getting me a quote. Their system kept generating invalid quotes, and it took them 3 tries to actually create and send a valid one. In the end, I didn't like the flashy format of their quotes compared to the regular, easy to read documents from other lenders. Their rate was good, but still not quite as good as a couple of others. I probably could have negotiated with them a bit, but after the quote issues, I decided to go a different direction. I understand technology issues can sometimes occur, and I would have considered them just another possible lender for the future. The reason for my review, though, is I can't get them to leave me alone. It has now been 8 months since I purchased my home and I am still getting junk mail, annoying emails, and even the occasional call from these guys. Their emails have no option to unsubscribe, either. I don't plan on buying another home soon, but even if I was, I wouldn't even request a quote from Dolan again just because of their overly aggressive marketing tactics. Mortgages aren't something people get every month, stop with the soliciting!
