    Very rude. Called her on one of her listings and she hung up on me. When I called back, it went straight to voicemail. Rude.

    Stephen went above and beyond during mine and my boyfriend's first home purchase. He was super…read morecommunicative and even connected directly with my agent to ensure everything went smoothly. We recently had the opportunity to refinance and without hesitation, Stephen reached out directly to us as soon as he noticed rates were coming down. We did not need to chase him for it nor constantly inquire about it--he just felt like it was the right time and reached out! I'm very grateful for Stephen and his team and will definitely be referring him to our friends and family.

    Based on his numerous good reviews, I messaged Stephen early last August about the possibility of…read moregetting a United Wholesale Mortgage (UWM) 15-year fixed home loan at 1.99%. This was a new program announced by press release, which I read about in a Yahoo! Finance article, through a link on Google News. Having worked previously in real estate and finance, I knew what the key points were to our situation, so I included those in the message to Stephen, asking whether he would be able to do the loan. Stephen responded abruptly by saying that he would have to talk with me by phone, to discuss "details." After I called him, he proceeded to try to browbeat me into accepting a different program at a higher interest rate. His approach was to use old-fashioned psychological pressure tactics, along the lines of: "Are you so naïve that you think you could actually get such a loan? That rate is just a teaser that you would never actually get." He was crude, demeaning and even insulting. I informed him, politely, that I had a background in real estate and finance, so I was not naïve about these things, offering him one last chance to do business with us, if he was so inclined. But he insisted that the loan would not be possible for us, so I thanked him and said goodbye. Shortly thereafter, I found a straightforward loan broker who in fact did the loan for us, on exactly the terms I had in mind: 1.99% 15-year fixed, with a reasonable fee. We closed in less than three weeks and none of the things that Stephen said were obstacles turned out to be an issue. I am pleased to report that my wife and I are now enjoying substantially lower monthly payments. BOTTOM LINE: If you want someone with an "old-school" approach to sales--involving psychological games, pressure tactics and absence of transparency (resulting in your not getting the best deal that you could)--Stephen Wong may be a good fit for you. Anyone interested in connecting with the straightforward broker we ultimately used is welcome to send me a private message, as I'm not allowed to include that information in my review.

    I worked with Ka-Yi in Bay Apex. I highly recommend her as she goes above and beyond for her…read moreservice. To help you see the difference, I will compare my experience with her with my typical experience. 1.) Quick: Closing process usually takes at least 1 month, and more so when you refinance. Ka-yi makes it happen in 2 weeks. 2.) Attentive: It usually takes a while for the lender to get back to you on questions, especially during crazy time like this where everyone is refinancing. Ka-yi stays very on top of things and she will respond to you quickly, sometimes even at weekends, or later in the evening. I appreciate the attentiveness. 3.) More choices: An advantage of working with her is she can give you several choices on lenders that work best with your situation, whereas individual banks dont give you much choice at all. Prior to making with Ka-yi, I have no idea about online lender and I am surprised at how quick, efficient, and much less fees compared to what a normal bank would charge me. 4.) Less fees: She genuinely helps you to save money and fees, which I find to be a very very rare quality in a lender. 5.) Honest and open: She breaks it down for you very well, and is very detailed. In the beginning, I didnt go for 30-year fixed, and she actually told me quite honestly if I am looking for 7/1 ARM I can find better rates elsewhere. You can't find a better and more honest lender to work with. I will def come back to Ka-yi if I have to refinance/purchase again.

It was really nice to work with her and she was very patient, professional and knowledgable. I heard a lot of stories about the pain in the loan process, including asking for ridiculous documents one or two days before closing date, saying close on time but actually can not make it. I did feel worried when the closing date was approaching. There seems to be some extra processes that need to be addressed because it's a newly constructed home, even the builder told me It will be a very challenging task for her. But Ka-Yi nailed it and did pretty nicely. She explained everything very well, even when it's very late at night or when she was on vocation. And yes we made it. Ka-Yi was there helping me whenever I had questions, and responded fast. Signing documents, lock rate, actively helping me pinging the lender, builder and Escrow, everything went pretty smoothly. Ka-Yi also helped me get a pretty decent rate. The lender she was working with was flexible, also react pretty fast too. I would give more than 5 stars if I can, and I feel lucky that I met Ka-Yi and asked for help on loan. I have referred her to one of my friends that is thinking about buying a new home, and I would definitely recommend Ka-Yi to anyone that needs a loan.

    The KPCU Milpitas branch is easily my favorite bank. I never thought I would write a bank review…read moreuntil my recent experience. I needed help with several transactions for an upcoming trip. The requests were a bit complicated but still well within what banks normally assist with. I went to four Citi branches, two other KPCU locations, and one Chase branch with the exact same request. The level of customer service I received from Holly and Raj at the KPCU Milpitas location was by far the best. It was not even close. Holly and Raj are incredibly friendly and genuinely willing to help. The moment you walk into the branch, they create a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere. I worked with Holly multiple times, and she treats every customer like a close friend. This branch truly feels like a neighborhood bank where the staff know their customers and are happy to go the extra mile to make sure everything is handled properly. I would absolutely recommend banking with KPCU, especially the Milpitas branch. Large banks often feel impersonal, where every interaction is purely transactional and you are just a name in a system. KPCU is the opposite. They truly care about their clients and it shows in every interaction.

She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and patient, and she always takes the time to explain things clearly so I understand all my options. What really stands out about Aileen is how much she genuinely cares about her customers. She doesn't just treat you like another account number--she listens, offers guidance, and makes sure you're taken care of every step of the way. It's rare these days to find someone who combines excellent customer service with a personal touch, but Aileen does exactly that. Honestly, Aileen is the main reason I chose to bank with KeyPoint. Her dedication and helpfulness gave me confidence that I made the right choice, and every interaction since then has reinforced that. Because of her, I recommend KeyPoint Credit Union to my friends and family without hesitation. Thank you, Aileen, for all your hard work and for making banking such a positive experience. You truly make the Milpitas branch shine!

She would have an actual view and true felling about the neighborhood before she introduce the house to clients. Wow! What a fantastic job! Oanh definitely got a lot of best reviews already such as knowledgeable, professional, dedicated,...(that's how i found her and yes! I had an excellent experience working with her). I wish there is a 6th star or more in any reviewing platform i would rate it for her. Now we digging to my tricky case. As a 34yrs old single mom, how can i afford a single house in a good zip code in San Jose? But with Oanh, nothing impossible! Oanh's expertise in negotiation was invaluable during the purchase of my home. Her knowledge of local market trends allowed her to get me a great deal while ensuring that both parties felt like they had a fair outcome from the transaction. She also ensured that i knew of any potential risks associated with purchasing a particular property. Then we proceed to loan section, it was not easy! But she is also a loan officer, I've trusted and let she take care everything. She was extremely accommodating regarding doing running the loan, finding a low rate. She always making herself available on short notice to me whenever she got a new info or an update from lander. After a month and haft throughout the process, i finally settled down in my new "sweet sweet" home with my lovely kids. We are truly thankful to Oanh and appreciate her efforts and her warm heart to help us get a house. From Lan and kids with love to Oanh! P/s: the bottle wine she brought on the day we celebrate new house and key receiving was so good!
