Aaron is so easy to talk to and he is explained everything so well. I'm happy to have met him and looking forward to working with him again. Thank you so much Aaron! read more

I am updating my review. Aaron was able to help my sister with 2 loans simultaneously and she is pleased with the outcome of working with him. read more

I found Cali Mortgage by chance, on a Google search. I was impressed with all the positive reviews! I needed an experienced loan officer to help me with a complex loan that could easily fall through if it weren't carefully handled; needless to say, I was very worried! Aaron was very communicative and that made all the difference! He let me know where we were every step of the way, and called me every day to give me updates and ask if I had any questions. In previous dealings with other loan officers I had felt uncertain with the process and left in the dark. When I came to Aaron, he reassured me he would get the job done and FAST! He didn't let me down! We closed with several days to spare (right before Christmas) and it made for the best Holiday! Couldn't have been happier! Highly recommend Aaron and his team. read more

Aaron and his staff were extremely helpful , Everything done in timely manner. They all made the experience easy and comfortable. We closed faster than expected. I can't wait until I can use their services again. read more

I like Cali Mortgage and do recommend them! They are honest and work hard. Aaron was easy to work with, and worked to get me the loan I wanted. Sarah was great too! They were professional. HOWEVER- my one criticism is that Cali's underwriter "screwed the pooch" and almost me too! They waited until the week before closing to review my documents and came up with multiple additional (bone head) doc requests. Because of incomplete docs, we missed our first closing date and had to postpone to the next week. The seller said they were prepared to cancel if we missed the new closing date. It would have been nice if Cali ensured the underwriter completed doc reviews in a timely manner and avoided the eleventh hour panic attack. I suggest Cali file a complaint with the underwriter, and maybe never use that underwriter again. I also feel Cali and/or the underwriter should have sent us a written apology and explain what happened and how it wouldn't happen again. Dinner and a movie would have been nice! read more

I HIGHLY recommend Aaron and his Cali Mortgage team. Moving up to Roseville from the Bay Area was a big step for us... Thanks to Aaron, we were able to make that transition and get the home we wanted. He got us in touch with a great team of people who helped us from point A to Z. Even when things got challenging, Aaron stuck by us and guided us through the entire loan process. As first time home buyers that definitely meant a lot to us. Thank you Cali Mortgage. read more

Was recommended to Aaron (Cali Mortgage) from a work colleague. Best recommendation ever. Aaron and his team were very friendly and always kept me up to date on the status of my refinance. Start to finish I was done in 2 week. Couldn't have asked for better service. Thanks Cali Mortgage read more

Aaron Knutson and his team are superstars amongst loan officers. As a realtor, I need a loan officer to be on my team to help clients through the home buying process. Aaron and his team not only spent time reviewing and explaining the details of the loan to our clients but took the time to keep me updated through out the entire process... even taking time after normal business hours to go over closing details and answering my questions. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is very knowledgeable, compassionate, responsive, professional and has one heck of a work ethic. You will not go wrong with Aaron. I recommend him to any and everyone - he will guide you through your loan process and make sure your closing is seamless. Aaron, Sarah and Barbara are hands down some of the best and will make sure you feel like you are their only client. read more

After shopping around at our local banks and getting the "ol-run-around" we followed a link that was on Zillow. Within a few minutes we received a call and the rate they gave us was a lot lower than what we received locally. We were a little nervous about working with someone that we hadn't meet "face to face", but the level of care and efficiency we got from Aaron and Adam was great. The process moved so smoothly that I will definitely use them again, and refer them to friends and family. They are fast and reliable and came through on every promise that was made - real pros! read more

I got my first loan with Aaron for my house which went well because he helped me get a house with only 10 percent down in 2011. I contacted him to get a lower rate a couple years later and he got in me a loan with the banks that I use for checking and saving. He got me a lower rate but I ended up having to pay a lot in points which he never explained or gave any choice to choose. He blamed it on my impound account which is not true that I'm finding out. He totally screwed me over of thousands. He gave me bad advice and ending up costing me my savings to refi. I would never recommend anyone to these people. NOT only that but he also has his team call you MULTIPLE times to leave reviews for his company on google and yelp. I swear I had to tell one person, if another person calls me again for a review, that I would leave a bad one and they stopped calling. I'm not giving a one star review because of my first loan. read more

I highly recommend Aaron Knutson and Cali Mortgage for re-financing a mortgage. They had the best interest rates in town and the lowest closing costs. I was very pleased and happy with all of their help in re-financing my mortgage. They made re-financing my loan effortless. It was all done on-line. Aaron answered every question I had and made the process very simple. He was always available to help and always called me right back on any questions I had. Thank you Aaron and Sarah for your help with my re-financing. I am so happy that I came to you. read more

Cali mortgage had been amazing. Aaron is very professional and knowledgeable. Sarah and Aaron were so attentive to all our emails and questions. He even gave us a referral to a great agent that really went the extra mile. If you want to make things happen Aaron and his team are the way to go! read more

If I could give then less stars I would. Office staff was unfriendly and unprofessional. Aaron just passes you off to them. My last contact was a phone call with Sarah and she never got back to as she said she would. Thankfully we found a company who values our business. read more

I cannot thank Aaron enough to assisting me to purchase my first condo. I am so happy but it wasn't easy as many forms are needed and a jump or three through fiery hoops. But in the end I'm a home owner! If you ever bought a new car it is like that but much more forms. read more

Aaron Knutson and his team made buying our first home quick and easy. I am not exaggerating when I say that it was completely stress free. They execute great customer service. Aaron is available whenever we need him to answer questions and fulfill requests. As a young first time home buyer, we were very critical of everything because we wanted to avoid buyer's remorse. Aaron was very honest about everything. Without a single doubt, I would recommend Aaron to everyone. If we purchase another home, we will most definitely use Aaron and his team again. read more

Aaron and his staff saved me from losing my condo!! They got my loan approved for my home loan in 2 weeks!! Great company to work with and so professional. Thank you!!!!!! read more

Working with Aaron is great. This was a smooth refinance. They are professional and speedy. I highly recommend them.

This is a review for a friend. He had a great experience at Cali Mortgage. They offered a fast quote with a great low rate. Communication was a breeze. The ease of service was non-intimidating and a welcome change from the seemingly standard "run around" process of other mortgage companies. read more

We just closed on our first home. As first time home buyers we had a lot of questions. David Martin at Cali Mortgage was extremely helpful in guiding us through the process. He was available and responsive regardless of when we contacted him. I would highly recommend Cali Mortgage. read more

We used Cali Mortgage for a mortgage to purchase our home. Aaron and team are extremely informative and responsive. I loved that they communicated both by phone and email as I am often easier to be reached via email, but I always had a phone message to accompany the email. They answered all of our questions and were very patient. All of my stupid questions were answered with patience, and I wasn't afraid to ask anything. I felt like I was long time friends with Sarah and Aaron and it was a very easy relationship. Part of our offer was that we could close quickly, and boy did we - 22 days! We would highly recommend Cali Mortgage to all our friends and use them again in the future! They also introduced us to our realtor who made all our dreams come true. Aaron's a wealth of knowledge! Thanks guys!! read more

The guys at Cali mortgage informed me of the many options available in today's market. Not knowing exactly what the right thing to do is or the right route i felt way more comfortable after talking to them. It's crazy how many real estate options are available in the Sacramento area. read more

We recently got our home refinanced from Cali Mortgage. The entire team is great and they made the entire process extremely seamless. They would follow up at every stage of the process and give regular updates. The loan process is also streamlined. They have an online application with a list of documents that need to be provided. Once that was submitted we didn't have to do anything else.   Aaron is a very friendly person and would work with you for the best rates possible. He is a man of words and would abide to what he has committed. It was a great pleasure and I would highly recommend Cali Mortgage. read more

Cali Mortgage was professional and handled our re-finance with little or no pain.

We recently worked with Aaron with Cali Mortgage when purchasing our home. Aaron and the staff were always very easy to get into contact with, very attentive, organized, and never dropped the ball throughout the whole process. They worked to get us the best rate, and to save us money. I would definitely use them again in the future, and would recommend their services! read more

Cali Mortgage is a dream to work with. Compared to our last two mortgage companies it's almost "Mortgage for Dummies". No matter how I seemed to mess it up (missing documents, out of the country), they always had a solution. The process was really fast and Dave Martin is a pleasure to work with. read more

Aaron and Sarah worked very quickly and effectively to help me refinance my home. Aaron and Sarah are both very knowledgable and helpful. My situation was a little complex and Aaron was able come up with several options and got me a very competitive rate. Throughout the refinance, Aaron and Sarah were very responsive and polite. Sarah promptly followed up with any of my questions and issues throughout the process. I recommend them highly. read more

Reading the other positive reviews and seeing their profiles makes me think most of them are fake. My experience was horrible. I was lead down a path that was uneducated and unprofessional. I was pre approved and told being self employed moving states wouldn't be an issue which was completely wrong. Cali Mortgage gave me a pre approval only until 2 1/2 weeks before closing they dropped me for the same reason they told me would not be an issue. I could have lost the house we were in contract with and also had no place to live in the meantime since we put our notice into our rental. Aaron put us in a very compromising position and did not even respond when I asked why his company dropped us a few weeks before closing. They charged me for an appraisal which never happened and is illegal to do. No response until this AM when I received an email from Aaron asking for my business back on a future home. As if loosing our first home is OK and to continue with his company? What a joke! Arron is the most unprofessional mortgage broker out there! I called another company in the same town to move forward and they were in shock this happened to me. This should have never happened if Aaron knew what he was doing. Please do yourself a flavor and others and steer clear of Cali Mortgage! read more

Aaron Knutson is awesome. We were working with another lender who couldn't get us the loan at the rate we wanted. Aaron bent over backwards to help us secure a 30-year fixed loan at a great rate. We were able to purchase the home of our dreams thanks to him. Plus he's a hard worker, follows up, and was always keeping us updated on our status. Thanks Aaron!!! read more

Aaron and his team were very professional and patient with us. It has been a long time since I refinanced and things have changed in the information needed. Plus we had some unique circumstances to deal with based on our particular situation. Aaron kept us informed throughout the process and answered our questions as they came up. And I liked that they were local. They did good by us and I definitely recommend them for any refinancing needs. read more

Recently I obtained a loan through Cali Mortgage. Their entire team was super responsive, very thorough and on top of the process from start to finish. Also, my loan officer, Jason Malone, did an outstanding job and communicated updates on a daily basis. Moreover, their rates were very competitive! To even sweeten the deal, we closed escrow 6 days earlier than expected. I highly recommend this mortgage company. read more

We will recommend Cali Mortgage to any friends that are looking for mortgage financing. Adam Hultman provided great service, ensuring that everything moved as fast as possible.

Barbara communicated with us on an ongoing basis to ensure that all the paperwork necessary was available on a timely basis. read more

From the first meeting in the home I immediately wished to purchase to signing the final documents, CaliMortgage was A+++++, represented exclusively by David Martin who exhibited at all times: Kindness, consideration, expertise, fortitude, and progressive movement towards funding. It was an extraordinary experience and I am so very happy to now have the home I desired completely due to David Martin with CaliMortgage. Thank you! read more

We just closed on our first home, and Aaron and Sarah were awesome. My mom referred me to Cali Mortgage after she bought her home a few years ago and said Aaron was great. First-time home-buying can be stressful and exciting at the same time. They were very helpful and responsive, and walked us through the entire process. Our loan was not easy as we purchased a home with pending litigation, so there was only one lender that would take on our type of loan. There were a few hiccups along the way, but Aaron was patient with me as I asked a ton of questions and helped resolve any situations. I am a numbers person so I had questions on a lot of the fees from the lender, escrow, etc. He was there to help with each question. We will definitely be recommending Cali Mortgage to anyone looking for a home, and will be sure to use them if/when we refinance in the future. read more

Aaron, Sarah and the rest of the team were friendly, efficient and informative. They seemed happy to answer all my first time home buyer questions and worked some deadline magic, thanks guys! read more
