Julie Aragon and her team are simply exceptional. I've had the opportunity to work with Julie on multiple transactions, and every single time I walk away impressed, not just by the results, but by how she gets there. Her professionalism is top-tier, but what really sets her apart is the way she builds relationships. Julie brings a rare mix of creativity, energy, and genuine care to her clients. People don't just feel "handled"...they feel understood, supported, and confidently guided through what can be a very complex process. She's honest, communicative, and relentlessly hardworking. You always know where things stand, and you always feel like you have a true advocate in your corner. If you're a first-time buyer, especially, Julie is a no-brainer. She has the ability to simplify the process, remove the stress, and actually make it an enjoyable experience. read more

Julie and her team kick a$$! Mike helped us with a HELOC and I'm glad to say from the moment we connected it was a wrap. Not only was the process made easy to understand, it was completed from the comfort of our home and our schedule.The team is flexible, quick, knowledgeable and most importantly explained it in a way that made sense to us. Our HELOC closed in a little over a week. Mike was in communication with us which felt like 24/7. If anyone is looking for a reputable lending team look no further. read more

Never once did I wonder if our team knew what they were doing because I was CONFIDENT that they knew exactly what to do. Plus, as someone who likes frequent communication and updates, the team was really great about that. I would highly recommend the team to anyone looking for a home loan. read more

Third time we've used Aragon. Closed in record time. Her team is always always on top of everything. I'll be back for a fourth time.

Julie and her team are hands down the best. From the very beginning, they were incredibly responsive, easy to approach, and made us feel completely comfortable discussing our budget and finances. There were many times we felt like we were asking "silly" questions because of all the mortgage jargon, but her team always took the time to explain everything clearly and made the process feel simple. Beyond their great communication, Julie guided us through a fast 21-day escrow that successfully closed--something we truly appreciated. This team doesn't mess around; they genuinely work in your best interest and go above and beyond to get the best outcome. Even after closing on our home, Julie continues to be just as responsive and helpful, answering our questions and proactively guiding us as we start thinking about refinancing. The Aragon Lending Team is always three steps ahead. It was such a pleasure working with this team during one of the biggest milestones of our lives. Thank you all so much! read more

As first time homebuyers, my husband and I were definitely overwhelmed with the unending list of tasks that came with finding our dream home. A major part of our home-buying journey involved getting a loan. We're so thankful we found Julie, Mike, and the Argon Lending Team. They were super easy to communicate with and made themselves accessible and available to explain each step of the loan process in detail and answer our various questions with care. They helped explore various loan options for us to understand our budget and worked closely with our agent to ensure we were putting our best foot forward when making an offer. Seriously, huge shoutout to Mike for dealing with us constantly asking him to adjust certain numbers to see how rates would compare, Julie for picking up the phone and talking to us on weekends when we fell in love with a house and needed to put in an offer the next day, and Suzie for keeping us organized and ensuring all our paperwork was in order throughout the process. We ultimately had a pretty short escrow and the Argon Lending Team was able to get us cross qualified and loan approved super quickly. Our agent has also praised the Argon Lending Team and mentioned how great they are to work with. Even after purchasing our home, Julie and Mike both check-in to make sure we understand all the various mortgage statements and property tax documents being sent to us. They also keeps us updated on how mortgage rates are looking as they know we're hoping to refinance in the future. We know Julie and her team have our backs. We can't recommend them enough. read more

Julie, Mike, and the Aragon Lending Team are the best. When I bought my first home, the loan officer at my bank constantly asked me to write letters of explanation, grab insurance quotes, and resend stuff I had already sent, and I had to chase him for updates. It was exhausting. I'm a busy woman and did not want to go through that again. Enter Aragon Lending. They took everything off my plate and handled it all seamlessly. They kept me in the loop without overwhelming me. Even after we closed, they've been quick to respond to my questions and proactive in finding ways to save me money. If you want a smooth, hassle-free mortgage experience, choose Aragon Lending. They make the difference. -Sandra read more

Without Julie and her Team, my husband and I would not be moving into our new house this week! Our situation was quite complicated as we had no earnings history in the US (after living outside the US for a number of years) and we had less than 10% for the down payment. Julie and her team qualified us for a loan program and worked through every obstacle with zero drama. All this, and we purchased in NC where they are also licensed! We are so grateful for Julie and Mike and highly recommend the Aragon Lending Team! read more

We learned about Julie Aragon from our real estate agent. When we were introduced, Julie immediately shared her availability and we got on a call. We shared our goals and plans (and worries!) as this was not our first time buying a house. Julie provided us with the next steps, information and contacted her team. She made us feel at ease knowing that we were in good and reliable hands. Upon approval, Mike and Julie kept us informed about every update. Having a professional, friendly, approachable and supportive team made a huge difference in our journey! My wife and I were impressed with their knowledge of all lending practices and historical market research and trends that better fit our needs. One of our big concerns was communication with our team, we had no issues with them, their communication was superb! Receiving notes and videos after our meetings was appreciated. They are down to earth, hilarious but very professional. After our purchase, they kept us on their listserv and will keep an eye out on us for any possible ways to save money if interest rates drop. I would also like to share that the surprise Uber eats gift card and moving boxes were very much appreciated. They thought about the things we were not even thinking about yet! Julie understands the importance of being prepared and cares about her clients. Truly a joy to have them in our team. We would highly recommend Julie and the Aragon Team. A true gem in SoCal! read more

I was honestly appalled by the conversation I had with Julie the other day. My family and I have decided to purchase our first home and just as any first time homebuyers, I looked to the internet to find a firm that we would feel comfortable, well managed and go to bat for us. Julie represented from her mannerisms and rude satire, that this wouldn't be a great fit however I gave her the benefit of the doubt and continued on with my conversation instead of rudely interrupting her right in her tracks. At the beginning of our conversation, we went over a quick overview of financials and I guess I was talking a bit fast or perhaps faster then she can comprehend and she cut me off and said "Woah slow down, you got a lot going". I was really off-put by that remark but perhaps I was indeed talking too fast, HOWEVER, If I was in her shoes I would not have said something along those lines. Reaching out and starting this process can be very nerve wracking and so she should definitely be one to understand that by telling someone what she just said, can make them feel even more tense. But whatever, I continued on and we were discussing some old financial situations that I wanted to disclose and she sarcastically remarked "and you wanna buy a house?". I was ASTONISHED by that comment! It is one thing to educate a borrower gently that buying a home might not be feasible but another thing to try and talk one out with a Ill-mannered and disgusting assumption! Just some insight on my family's and I financials situation, we can afford a house twice the cost of the average home if we really wanted too but have maybe just a bit more of an interesting file then a normal cut and dry w2 co signer ship. That was the final straw for me but I was cordial and wanted to make it seem it was worth her time to take my call but I was pretty much done with asking her anymore questions that pertained to a home at this point. My last question was "What differentiates your firm from others or is there something that your company does that adds comfort to buyers choosing you". All Julie has to say was "I think our reviews speak for themselves". She didn't have an ounce of pride for her company or even tried to turn this conversation around with trying to vouch for herself or their services. I can't believe this person has the chance to talk to other potential buyers! I have tough skin but there is people out there that maybe have a bit more sensitive demeanor or not as strong of a file that she is talking to and I'm not okay with that! Avoid this place or at least avoid Julie. I have since spoke with 3 more lenders/brokers who have been the utmost professional, pleasant and have described the same file as "not a problem", who have also put faith and confidence into their company/brand when asked "why choose them." I am now proceeding with the pre-approval process. read more

The reviews are all true. This team is top notch. I initially hesitated finding a lender via Yelp because I assumed for some reason that their rates would be more expensive. But I decided to give it a shot and contacted several different mortgage brokers I found via Yelp and Google. I eventually got in contact with Mike from the Aragon Lending Team, and he was able to offer me the best rate out of everyone I contacted. The customer service and professionalism throughout the process was able top notch (I have financed several properties before with other lenders and this team was by far the best experience I have had). I also had a chance to speak with and get to know Julie Aragon herself. She was very personable and easy to work with. She has truly put together an amazing team. I will definitely be working with them in all future transactions. read more

I found Julie after comparing the reviews of several other companies and have to say, Julie made the process of refinancing my home a breeze. Sure, there was a lot of paperwork and some back and forth, but that is the nature of the process. Julie never left me waiting. Was always on top of communications. Always took my calls to answer any questions. Also did a great job of helping me understand the process. One very important aspect of our interaction: she beat the price and terms of every other mortgage broker I spoke with. She got me the lowest interest rate with the lowest closing costs. It is amazing! Combine that with excellent customer service and I am completely sold. Would definitely recommend her and her team to anyone who wants to refinance their home. read more

Julie and her team are simply THE BEST. The Aragon Lending Team made our home buying process seamless. Given our multiple streams of income, I apprehensive about being approved; without jumping through the numerous hoops that previous lenders required. Julie had us approved in just one day. After entering escrow, we closed within 15 days. Everything was so simple. The added bonuses were her witty emails. Many thanks to Julie, Michael, and Suzie. read more

I called Aragon Lending team with a short time frame and an immediate need for a quote which they provided me with instantly. What shocked me is that the quote they provided me with was the lowest I had seen with the best incentives, and I didn't have to haggle with them to get it. When I was considering my options, Julie personally called me to have a conversation which I really appreciated, as many businesses these days lack that personal touch. Speaking to the team at Aragon Lending educated me about which lending fees I should be paying attention to and the benefits of different approaches to my loan. I will definitely be doing business with them in the future. They do not play games and do not waste your time. read more

Julie and the whole team are truly exceptional. From a pragmatic perspective, they helped us navigate the tricky waters of a VA loan which was so much more than our bank was able to do. But they really go above and beyond - Fun emails along the way, the easy to fill out automated systems, video recommendations to help with the offer process, I never knew a lender could be this amazing. And the sense of humor - they actually made this fun!! Can't imagine ever dealing with a normal bank for housing focused needs again. read more

Julie and her team were so FAST! They were so good at what they do they allowed us to make a super competitive offer with a very quick closing that won us the house. I was the buyer's realtor during this home purchase, and Julie's team had loan docs out for closing before we had even finished negotiating the seller repairs! Wow, unheard of. Julie also has a great communication system that keeps everyone informed, so no one is ever texting me to ask what's going on. Definitely will be sharing her contact to my buyer clients moving forward! read more

Aragon Lending is the perfect team to work with. My husband and I as first time home buyers were not very knowledgeable about the entire process at the beginning but the Aragon team helped explain everything in very simple terms with a plethora of experience! We worked mostly with Julie and Mike and they were so helpful with explaining everything in digestible terms and giving their own advice as veterans. We got our realtor recommended from Julie and it was the best decision we made! We definitely had multiple curveballs come our way during the home buying process that would have stressed out any other team but Julie, having previously worked with our realtor, worked closely with them to fix every problem that came up from late into the evening to early in the morning. We appreciated the responsiveness and attention to detail when it comes to a process we're not knowledgeable about so it was SO much appreciated by an amazing team! Would definitely come running to Julie if we one day need to buy a second home. read more

The Aragon lending team was truly amazing throughout the entire lending process. They made my first home buying experience very pleasant and I can't thank them enough for putting up with all my questions and making sure I felt comfortable along the way. I highly recommend them for first time home buyers or even experienced buyers, they get stuff done! Plus Suzie, Michael, Michelle, and Julie make you feel like part of the team and they all have a good sense of humor. Thanks again team! read more

Julie and her team are truly amazing and an absolute joy to work with! As a first time homebuyer I had a lot of questions and (admittedly) needed a bit of hand-holding. From start to finish, everyone I spoke to was incredibly professional, communicative, and helpful which put my mind at ease. I especially loved receiving the funny update emails from Julie which were a welcome breath of fresh air after all the boring contracts and legal docs I received. I'm *so* grateful that I found Julie and her knowledgable team of experts and look forward to working with them again in the future. read more

This is the 3rd mortgage I've had processed with Julie, Michael and their amazing team. Home loans are not supposed to be this simple. Applying for a loan is incredibly daunting, but they somehow manage to make this typically arduous process, swift, fun and exciting as you tick off each task, moving you closer and closer to the loan getting funded. They foresee every possible scenario that can transpire. They make sure that they are with you every step of the way--to guide you, and to limit any delays. I can't imagine working with anyone else. You'll come out very satisfied and a whole lot more savvy. read more

I reached out to Julie to start the process of buying a house and as I was a first time home owner and had so many questions about the process I inquired to her to get my concerns clarified and unfortunately she found me and my questions annoying and said "Amy you should read about the process, I don't have time to answer your questions", so I then went to do some "reading" as she suggested and found a better company who actually assisted me with the process of buying my own home. So I'm summary if you are looking to work with a company that will take your concerns seriously and will help you in every step of the way... this company is definitely not it! read more

Julie and Team are the best! I couldn't have gone with a better Lender. I was referred to 2 other Lenders by friends, and I found Julie on Yelp. Julie was way better than the referrals hands down. She is incredibly knowledgeable and super fast to respond to every email and phone call. She is very deadline driven, and she completely streamlined the entire process for me. In fact, I already referred her to a friend of mine that is interested in buying soon. I almost forgot to add that Julie also referred me to my realtor, who was the also the absolute best! So happy I found Julie! Thanks, Julie! Thank you and your Team for all your help! read more

Great experience with the Aragon lending team. Everyone is very patient and there are no surprises. The team is super professional, respond very quickly, and keep in close touch because they know how to get stuff done. 100% recommend getting in touch with them if you are looking for a new home. read more

I have to fully recommend Aragon for their services. We were first time home buyers purchasing a home 200 miles away intrastate and Mike, Alex, Julie, and Suzie gave us the smoothest 21-day close. I had interviewed a few other lenders but went with Aragon because Mike was patient, clear, and concise. He got us a better rate than every other lender. The whole team was incredibly responsive and hard-working. There was never a moment when I wondered what our loan status was. We are so thankful and plan to use them again when we refinance! read more

I submitted my info online on the 27th, I had to EMAIL them 2 business days leter to get the upload link for my docs. If I didn't email I still would be waiting. They claimed they were "short staffed". If you are too "short staffed" to send me a simple link to upload my docs, you are certainly too "short staffed" to handle my loan. It's definitely a warning as to how the process would be; me having to follow up constantly on everything in order to get things done. Not interested. read more

This team is top notch!! Made the mistake of not coming to them first but what took our first lender almost a month and a half to get us approved, took Julie's team about a week! Julie herself called us to make sure everything was going good and if We had any questions about anything we were able to get great rates with them as opposed to our last lender who we really feel tried to rip us offMike is the one who's been helping us and has been very thorough on all the numbers and some words Lol he sent a video he made with our approval letter explaining everything in different price ranges and what to expect which was very helpful. They even sent us a congratulations gift which came in handy Lol call this team first before anyone else cuz they got the best rates and team of people #TeamMike #TeamJulie #BestTeamEver read more

Aragon Lending Team - Mortgage Brokers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

See all

The Aragon lending team was super helpful in getting me a loan and walking me through the process as a first time buyer. Talking with Mike kind of reminded me of talking to my dad, he was really helpful and answered any question I could think of and was even helpful with stuff I didn't know about home ownership that I don't think anyone else would have told me. The entire team was really responsive and worked really hard to close my loan within 30 days and rolled with the punches when the seller kept pushing back the closing date. Thankful for everyone that helped me in this stressful process and would definitely recommend this team for anyone needing a home loan! read more

as a first time homebuyer I was terrified of the mortgage process but Julie Mike and team made the process super relatable and seamless. Everything happened super quick and the team was on top of all timelines. I ended up finalizing all documents a week early. read more

Julie, Mike, Suzie, and team are awesome. They are a fast and solid group who were adept at managing the many ups and downs of our home search. They are great at explaining the complex factors and machinations of getting a home loan to laymans (like my fiance and I), which helped us navigate the process. And when we eventually got an offer accepted, Julie and team were aggressive in getting the loan docs out so we could close the deal. Most of all, we felt like the lending aspect of the process was handled, which freed up brain space in what can be an overwhelming process. Thank you team. read more

Where to begin with this teams help? Due to some personal matters, I was in a tight position and needed a helpful and creative lending team to assist me. Julie and her team (Mike and Monica) pulled all the strings to help me and made my requests happen. Through their help I am able to enjoy my home with my loved ones. If your looking for a team that will guide and care about you throughout the lending process, look no further! read more

Julie Aragon and her team are amazing to work with! They are professional, and always available to answer any and all questions throughout the process. Julie's team helped us financed our home purchase, and made it easy and always provided updates, even the seller's agent was impressed at how well they were included. Highly recommend her! P.S. We enjoyed her corny jokes along the way =) read more

This review is long overdue. I have been working with Julie and her team since 2016 when my wife and I bought our first home. After dealing with the banks (who are very rigid and don't offer the best rates) and other mortgage lending companies (who also didn't seem to know what they were doing) we found Julie and her team. They gave us such great advice, guidance and so much help. They helped us with our first purchase and then again earlier this year when we refinanced. We again foolishly tried working with our bank for our refinance and Julie was able to beat their rates again. I highly recommend Julie and her team! Thank you all so much! read more

I would highly recommend Julie and the entire Aragon Lending Team. As a real estate agent, I've come across a lot of lenders and you really want a lender that is trustworthy. Los Angeles is very competitive and you need a lender that can move fast. This helps in writing highly competitive terms which helps in beating multiple offers. Julie and her team are always super fast to respond and offer creative solutions to tricky situations. You want a confident, trustworthy and highly responsive lender in your corner when buying. Aragon is just that and more! read more

The Aragon Lending Team was super pleasant to work with. They referred me to my realtor who was super helpful during the process, and the team made the loan process extremely smooth on my end. read more

Great team to work with. Informed me throughout the whole process. Closed in time and provided great guidance to a first time buyer. Homeowner now since Jan 2022. They're worth checking out even if you already have a lender. read more

This is my second Refi with Julie and her team and I couldn't be happier with the streamlined process.
