A good mortgage specialist/broker is not easy to come by. The qualities that make Kirk stand out among the rest is his communication, availability, honesty, creativeness, constant updates, experience, knowledge, and willingness to fight for his clients. If you have ever worked with a loan officer or mortgage broker, you know these qualities is hard to find. An example for his ability to be creative and make things happen, I had a client that fell in love with a house in November. She was denied from Homestreet Bank for a loan, but Kirk was able to make it happen after one phone conversation with her. He took the time to understand her financial situation and was able to work his magic to help her get a loan and close on the house. I have no hesitation referring him to any of my clients. In fact, since I've met Kirk, I've referred all of my clients to him. He has helped over 7 of my clients with their home loans. My only regret is not finding him sooner in my real estate career. One of my clients said it best that Kirk is a like a bulldog that is willing to fight for you.

So, I'm writing this review based on two brief interactions with Tina, where my wife and I were on…read moreour own little "fact-finding mission" during the COVID-19 lockdown. We wanted to see where we were at financially, so that we could start looking for a house.... because everything on the east side is ridiculously expensive, so we wanted to get that part out of the way first. First interaction: phone call. We started by answering basic loan questions about jobs and debts and that sort of stuff. I was impressed with Tina's knowledge of the tech world, as I am a contractor to one of the tech companies in the area. She knew the differences between full-time employees, contingent/contractor positions, etc, and how many contract positions work (as I'm sure she deals with it regularly in this area). Also, she didn't phrase her questions in any sort of demeaning way, which is super nice. 15-ish minutes later, interaction number 2: "Zoom" conference call. She shared her screen with us, and walked us briefly through a 16-page breakdown of everything. Charts, graphs, numbers.... it was all in there, and looked pretty clean. She also broke down percentages and payments, with four different options, so we could get a look of what would be comfortable for us, where we were at now, and where we could be (within reason) if we got our finances a little better. It gave us a really clear picture of where we stood, and where we would stand in the near future (obviously these numbers weren't set in stone, but it was a great approximation/estimate). She emailed us all the data as well, so we could go over the details at our own pace. So, overall, so far (since at the time of this writing, we're still looking), I'm impressed with everything. I'm most impressed by the fact that she didn't try to force any kind of commitment or a sale of any kind. She just gave us the info, answered our questions, and ensured that we had everything we needed going forward, if we wanted to choose her going forward. ...which we will. If she's willing to put forth that much effort and time on someone for no gain, then it's a pretty damn good indication of how she'll be when our money is on the line. So, here's a review based on just the preliminary interactions. I'd encourage you to give her a shot, to see if she impressed you as well.

Jeffrey Lorsch, President and Broker, "worked" with me on a mortgage refinance. Highlights:…read more1. Started initial contact on a Wednesday, got back to me on Friday telling me he won't be able to get to it until next week due to the memorial day weekend. In the end it took more than a week to get any information. 2. The quotes were in the form of an upside down PDF based on Excel screenshot 3. Terms of the refinance were incorrect - he sent me an updated PDF, which we went over on the phone and there were calculation errors on his part - he said he'd send me an update. 4. 2 weeks later, no contact, he calls, we pick up where we left off - he still hasn't sent me the correct calculations. Since it's been a month I ask him to send me the updated numbers with the current rates. He launches into a speech saying to take the outdated and incorrect chart I have on hand as a fair estimate. I ask for an updated chart as promised - he declines, we agree to part ways. Bottom line - Jeff Lorsch is lazy and a waste of time.

The folks at Sammamish mortgage including Trevor and Priscilla almost cost me our house. We've…read moreworked with 2 other lenders, including Bank of America and had decent experiences where our lenders were personable and had close relationships with the underwriters. I'm not 100% sure with Sammamish but it seems they are just an intermediary and do not have close understanding of the underwriting process. Trevor was unreachable by phone and would e-mail me back or call back a day later. Priscilla seemed to be off or have a vacation notification on every time I tried to email her. Without warning us, Trevor went on paternity leave the week of closing, and Priscilla left on vacation. We were left with their supervisor who was 100% more competent, but extremely busy. Right before closing, Trevor also told me that we either needed to buy down more interest and pay them more money, which didn't make sense as we bought a house that was 1/2 our purchasing power. Our realtor emailed and called them (we had given consent) without any response and noted they were one of the worst and most nerve wracking groups she had dealt with. We had no idea if we would close on time, even the day of closing. We were living in an AirBnB and not sure whether we would be homeless the next day or if we should book a hotel. When I spoke with Stacey their supervisor about this the day before closing, she said "this isn't even as close as we come sometimes, don't worry!" which made me worry even more. I just found out that they immediately transferred our loan to another bank a month after closing. They have a ton more reviews than other servicers and I would be extremely concerned some of them are fake.
