We had the pleasure of working with Jennifer to sell our condo, which came with the added challenge of having existing tenants. Since we had previously worked with a property management company, we didn't have much direct interaction with the tenants ourselves. Jennifer stepped in and managed the entire process seamlessly. Not only did she communicate effectively with our tenants, but she also went above and beyond to help them find a new place to live that was likely a better fit for their needs. Her professionalism and ability to handle delicate situations made all the difference in keeping the process smooth and positive for everyone involved. Jennifer's market expertise was evident when she suggested a listing price that was both competitive and strategic, aiming to attract offers above asking--and that's exactly what happened. The listing went live on Thursday afternoon, and by Sunday, Jennifer called to let us know we would have offers by Monday. We ended up receiving three fully vetted offers and accepted one by Wednesday. From listing the condo to accepting an offer, the process took less than a week. We were thrilled with the final outcome and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Jennifer provided exceptional support and guidance throughout the entire process. We highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell property! read more

Bodhi and the entire Empower team were exceptional throughout our home‑buying journey. As first‑time buyers, we especially appreciated having both our lender and realtor under the same roof--it made communication seamless and kept every step of the process aligned. The transaction moved quickly, and during the moments that felt overwhelming, Bodhi was a steady, reassuring presence. He took the time to walk us through what to expect, kept us grounded, and consistently confirmed that we were on track to close on time, if not ahead of schedule. His expertise, responsiveness, and calm approach made all the difference. Bodhi also secured a great rate for us, and we felt confident placing our trust in him from start to finish. We're grateful for the professionalism, support, and care we received and would highly recommend Bodhi and the Empower group to anyone beginning their home‑buying journey. read more

I just closed a loan with these guys and I was very impressed with the entire process. Being middle aged, I have done this a handful of times now. My experience with lending in general has been that you have to be very aware of your options and advocate for your own best interests because most lenders want the best profit margin on their commissions which is not always the best loan for the customer. I was referred here by 2 people that I trust but I did look at other firms. I was very impressed that they offered unique solutions that the others did not, and got me a rate that I did not believe was possible. I really appreciate the attention to detail, concern for MY best interests, and treating me like I was making a several million deal (which I was not). Thank you Bodie, Marcy, and Elsa for a job well done. I will only look here in the future. read more

Marcy Tang was our loan agent for our home purchase. She was professional, informative and the rates/pricing were exactly what we had hoped for. Her communication through the process was upfront and exactly what we needed to get the loan closed. She was very knowledgeable about products and exactly what items would be needed for closing. The underwriter came back with minor conditions because it had all been handled from the beginning which to me is a huge plus. The loan time was what she had predicted, actually a few days earlier and we were able to get into our new home on a Friday which gave us the weekend to move. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a straight forward/professional, no beat around the bush loan officer that gets the job done. We couldn't be more happy with the entire process. read more

We just completed refinancing our home with Empower Capital and the team made it painless every step of the way. Marcy took care of the entire re-fi from start to finish, and kept my husband and I in the loop daily. Prior to starting, we were dreading the process and all the paperwork included, but the Empower Capital Group put us at ease. Although there was a lot involved, they facilitated a smooth and easy process that kept the stress of it all at bay. We can't thank them enough for how well they managed everything from beginning to end, and we will definitely work with them again in the future. read more

I wanted a reverse mortgage to continue to live comfortably in my home. Bodhi and his team made it happen. I have worked with this company twice, each time with excellent results. The process goes especially smoothly. I got precise information about the type of paperwork that they needed, so that there was a minimum of time and energy required on my part. I appreciated the support I received throughout the whole procedure. Emails and phone calls were promptly answered when I did have questions. I am very happy with the reverse mortgage that Bodhi and his team got for me. read more

I recently worked with Marcy Bravo Tang for my mortgage loan. She was recommended to me by my tax preparer. Macy takes the time to ensure that her clients understand entire process of closing on a mortgage and is always willing to explain things until the client is comfortable. From the beginning she has shown exemplary professionalism in handling my loan. I could not have done this without her. I highly recommend Marcy and her company to my friends. I have made another friend for life! read more

This team is fantastic! We lost the home we were renting in the fires and were concerned that we wouldn't be able to buy a home in the competitive, post-fire market.
