The most impressive aspect of their services was the negotiations, with multiple offers received, Meridox carefully orchestrated another round of bidding, culminating in us receiving the highest and best offer. Disclosures, paperwork, and escrow were a breeze. I would highly recommend their professional services to friends and family, and I would use them again in a heartbeat!

While my parents introduced me to a family friend who was a real estate agent, I had no idea how to go about finding a loan officer! After digging through Yelp/Google, I stumbled upon Meridox Mortgage that had stellar reviews and took a chance. I called Meridox and was put in touch with Trung Tran. I let him know that I didn't have any knowledge of how the house-buying process works, but he was incredibly supportive and assured me he would walk me through every step. Shortly after we finished talking on the phone, he sent me a list of items to provide for the pre-approval letter. Trung's turnaround was quick. I sent him my information in the evening and got the letter the next morning. My real estate agent used this letter to draft the offer...it was accepted! After my offer was accepted, the rest of the process was somewhat nebulous, but my real estate agent worked closely with Trung to help me through. Trung was with me every step of the way. He patiently explained how my monthly mortgage payment and closing costs were calculated and even helped me negotiate a home insurance offer. He even kept a close eye on the market and advised me when I should lock in the rate. I thought home buying would be more stressful, but it wasn't as bad as I thought because Trung made every step clear and was very on top of deadlines. From pre-approval to loan closing, it took just one month! Thank you Trung for being so diligent and patient in helping me secure my dream home! Trung was also very proactive in reaching out to me a few months later when interest rates dropped by about 1%. I had the honor of working with Trung again for my refinance, and it was also efficient and painless! I recommended Trung to my coworker recently when she was looking to buy a condo. Highly recommended to anyone who is in a market for a house to look into Meridox!! Thanks again for your hard work, Trung!!!

I was referred to Ammy by a friend who had recently refinanced their mortgage with Top Leading…read moreFinancial. Our conversations started around mid-December of 2020 and the entire process concluded at the end of January 2021. I was very surprised and happy that the process only took about 6 weeks as I have friends whose mortgage refinance process took at least 4 months to complete. At the beginning of my refinance process, I was shopping around and had also requested a quote at Loan Depot (LD) for my refinance (since another friend of mine referred me to his friend that is a manager there), and I absolutely despised talking to the rep that they had assigned me there. The LD rep would lose his patience when I asked questions about things I didn't understand and became not helpful when he realized that I would not sign a contract or move forward with him the afternoon he first called. He was extremely pushy and wanted to get things started right away even though it was right before the holidays. I didn't think I would be able to finish the process before year's end, so his urgency just didn't sit well with me. The moment that solidified my decision to go with Ammy and Top Leading Financial over LD was how both parties responded to me when I informed them I was shopping around. While LD was very quick and able to provide me a quote right away on our first call and Ammy informed me she would send me a quote the next day, the LD rep became aggressive in his response towards me as to why Ammy was not able to provide me a quote right away when he was able to, as if I had the answer. Later that night, Ammy had not only sent me a quote, but had also pointed out some of the differences between hers and LD, and spoke with me the next day to go over more in detail about the differences in the quotes. She was very patient and didn't sound aggressive or pushy when explaining everything to me. I was initially planning to send her quote over to LD to see if they could offer me something better, but when she ended our call by letting me know that it's okay if I don't proceed with their services, but not to begin two different loan processes with different companies because it's going to be a giant mess for me, that was the moment I decided to drop LD and proceed with Ammy. Even now as I'm writing this review over a month after my last communication with LD rep, remembering my experience with him is infuriating me. I am extremely happy with my decision to go with Ammy and Top Leading Financial, as the rest of the process was a breeze. Ammy even helped me resolve a last-minute issue relatively late on a Saturday night prior to me signing the final documents needed to complete the process the next day. Ammy and Jerry kept constant communication throughout the process and answered any questions I had quickly and professionally. If anyone's looking to refinance their mortgage and isn't too knowledgeable about the process, I definitely would recommend them to reach out to Top Leading Financial.

Amy puts in a lot of time to monitor the market rate and reaches out to me when she sees an opportune time to lock the rate. She is without a doubt the best I have worked with.

He took the time to explain everything clearly, stayed transparent throughout the process, and consistently kept us in the loop so we never felt out of touch. Not only did he help us lock in a great rate on our conventional loan, but he also made the entire experience feel smooth and fast from start to finish. You can tell he genuinely cares about his clients. One moment that really stood out was during one of our home inspections. The contractor needed access to the roof but didn't have a ladder. Dave didn't just stand by, he jumped in with a thinking-out-of-the-box solution and helped make it happen! That kind of resourcefulness is rare and speaks volumes about how committed he is to his clients.

The best part was is that everything that he said was exactly the same leading up to when we close our docs, which was our monthly payment plus the down payment, no surprises, and if there was, he worked with our agent to make sure that what we discussed was honored! It is now the new year and we celebrated in our new home. Thanks so much, Dave!
