This is an edit to a prior review that I'd written based on my having sent an inquiry e-mail and a…read morevoice mail a couple of days later, and never having received a response to either of them. I waited to write the review since the COVID-19 pandemic was in full force at the time of my initial query. While I was very disappointed to have not received any responses to my initial inquiries, I was VERY impressed to have received a personal response on Yelp within minutes of my posting my original review, apologizing for my not having received any responses, and asking for supplemental information so that they could investigate and try to find a root cause. They checked their systems and couldn't find my contact attempts. Their demonstrated concern for potential customers was very evident, as was their professionalism in taking the time to write a thorough and thoughtful response as well as their desire to find and fix the root cause. I'm not sure when or if I'll be in the market for a mortgage broker service again, but if I am, I'll definitely give Green Mortgage Northwest a shot before I contact anybody else based on their excellent response.

We didn't know what was possible or how to go about it, but Steph and her team walked us through every step and provided support and advice along the way. The entire process was fast, seamless, and so painless. At the end of it all, we couldn't believe we had such a smooth experience. Steph and Tina were really kind, thoughtful, and awesome to us both the entire time. There's no doubt that we will be using them again in the future when the time comes!

Steph Noble is a true professional at mortgages! My wife and I were first time homebuyers and we…read morealways felt like we were in very capable hands. Steph started conversations with us by asking how much we'd like to pay a month, instead of telling us how much we could afford. On each property we were considering, Steph made sure we were confident in each of our offers by sharing with us complete breakdowns of how property taxes, insurance, down payment sizes, and total loan amounts, influence our monthly payments. I felt that Steph's team sometimes did wonders to make our offers as affordable yet competitive as possible. We got a great mortgage rate, during a period where mortgage rates are quite high. For very competitive houses, we even qualified for some appraisal gap coverage assistance. I'd highly recommend Steph's team at Cross Country Mortgage (Tina and Heidi) if you are looking to finance the purchase of your home.

The PDX Home Loan team are not just great loan officers, they are great human beings. They are personable, hard working, communicative, proactive and make the loan process, which can sometimes be frustrating, transparent and enjoyable. I refer all my new clients to James and his team and will continue doing so for many years to come. I truly care about my clients and it feels great to know they are in the best of hands with the PDX Home Loan Team.

Man, what can I even say about James Adair? If you are reading this review wondering whether or not…read moreyou should work with him, YOU SHOULD. HE IS AWESOME. I was an incredibly anxious, first-time homebuyer in 2014. I was terrified of the financing falling through because of a tight timeline. My husband and I were attempting to bump a contingent offer and everything was on the line. We were out of a month-to-month apartment, and if things fell through with our financing, we'd lose our dream home AND have nowhere to live. I was quitting the worst job of my life to start a new one, and was working a lot of hours. Long story short: James' team made the entire process easy and seamless. Working with someone local was paramount. When I made a few mistakes with documentation and paperwork, I was able to just drive it over to their office to make it right in less than 24 hours. They even stayed after hours to make sure I could drop things off. They were comforting and reassuring and really listened to me, and most importantly, they got the job done. Now, fast forward 6 years later. I'm very thankful for the equity I've built in my house and the updates James still sends me about it! I find his emails legitimately helpful and they keep me motivating to look at the big picture of my finances. I can call him to ask his advice about financial instruments and how different choices might impact my property value upon eventual sale. He still listens sincerely without rushing, even when there's no immediate profit in it for him. James is in this business of the long game. He will help you buy this house and, if he can, your next house and the one after that. He's a relationship lender in the truest possible sense and I would send any close friend or immediate family member to him without hesitation.

From the first day we met with the team, everyone was so helpful and was quick to answer our many questions. It took us some time to find the right home and get through the process. Michael continually checked in and explained everything to us as we navigated what can be a complex, frustrating, or stressful experience. However, between Michael, Justin, and Bethany, we felt so well taken care of and they helped ease much of the complexity and stress. They were always very professional, quick to respond, and very efficient. They were also very transparent with the process, made it clear when certain items were time sensitive, and helped us understand what was standard so we wouldn't worry. We'd definitely recommend Capital M to any of our friends and family and will use them in the future if we move again!
