She was always willing to hop on a call to answer any questions we had, answered emails with the same lightning speed, and just made the entire home buying experience a pleasant one. Nothing ever felt like a black box, and I always felt like I was in stride with her. Not to mention, we shopped a few lenders and none came close to the fees and rates that Shelley provided us via BluPeak. If you want a loan officer who is straight with you, responsive, charming and can handle a complicated rural purchase without drama, ask for Shelley. We'd use her again in a heartbeat.

Their ATMs are often not functioning. Their website is confusing (even the new and improved one.) I rarely go inside but when I have I almost always have had to stand in line. I couldn't help noticing there is always at least one person in new accounts sitting at his/her desk chatting or looking at their computer. It seems it would be more efficient if those at the desks could help the tellers when it gets busy or at least speak to those in line to inquire if they are there for a new account. Their hours are certainly not helpful for most people as they don't open until 10 and close at 5. If you work outside the home I suppose you would have to wait until Saturday to go in. But they're only open from 10-2 on Saturdays. There is no one to help after hours......not even a phone number in case of emergencies. I guess I am too used to USAA. But there should be some way for members to get in touch with someone to help in case of an emergency. Since the Pandemic I've noticed I always have to wait...sometimes for over 10 minutes to speak with someone when I call in. Usually I'll choose to have a callback. The building is really nice and there seems to be enough parking.

Steve was a lifesaver. After having my loan not approved due to the initial lender not performing…read moreits due diligence the week of closing, my agent was able to negotiate additional time and referred me to Steve. Steve literally and figuratively sealed the deal for us, going above and beyond to communicate and let us know the progress every step of the way. Despite his busy schedule, he was always a phone call or text away. He was able to submit a brand new package, save us costs along the way, and closed us in record time. Usually in my previous real estate transactions, the paperwork and loan process has been straight forward. Going through adversity really allowed me to see how dedicated Steve was, and how his customer service was light years than my previous experiences. To be blunt, go with him and you will have peace of mind throughout the process.

I found Marc Thompson to be ethical, professional, highly organized and a clear communicator. He took the time to understand my specific situation then by anticipating and thoroughly reviewing all necessary documentation we were able to proceed to closing with only a few minor requests by the lender. I required an expedited (as possible) closing to avoid a double move and Marc Thompson came through. While I would not call the loan process simple these days, this Umax team has streamlined their processes. The entire office is highly competent and a true pleasure to work with. Marc locked me in at a phenomenal rate. Since acquiring the house and after discussions with others who purchased or refinanced during this time period I've confirmed my rate is truly exceptional. I absolutely recommend Umax Mortgage in Davis.

Me and my husband reached out to Jeanine because I had known she came highly recommended on Facebook by Solano County community pages over the past years and knew she would be our go to mortgage broker when the time came. Thankfully she was easy to book a phone call with, and we started the process right away. We knew nothing about the VA loan when we first started looking into home buying, but Jeanine was so well informed about it that she answered all of our questions with ease. There was never a time we reached out to her that she wasn't readily available via text or phone call, so we highly trusted her to get the job time quickly. Even after closing, she remained in touch and let us know to reach out to her any time with any questions. She really is there for you your whole homebuying experience and after. I highly recommend Jeanine to anyone and everyone!

From the very beginning, Jeanine was so much more than a mortgage broker, she became a trusted guide through every step of the process. No question was ever too small. She patiently explained things I didn't understand, kept me informed every step of the way, and somehow made a very complex process feel manageable and even possible. Whenever a new document, underwriting request, insurance issue, or unexpected question came up, Jeanine was there with calm reassurance, knowledge, and practical solutions. What impressed me most was how deeply she cared. I never felt like just another client. She worked tirelessly behind the scenes, coordinated with my realtor, escrow, insurance broker, and lender, and always had my best interests at heart. I truly not only felt, but knew she was advocating for me throughout the entire process. Thanks to Jeanine, I am now the proud owner of my very first home. Looking back, I honestly don't know how I could have navigated this journey without her expertise, patience, encouragement, and unwavering support. If you're looking for someone who is knowledgeable, responsive, compassionate, and willing to go far above and beyond, I recommend Jeanine without hesitation. She helped make one of the biggest dreams of my life come true, and I will always be grateful.

It was through an email I received about a free first home time buyer webinar that I came to know…read moreabout Jason Mata. I did additional research on him and saw stellar reviews about him. In addition, they provided discounts for UC Davis Alumni that helped with some of the closing costs which sold me. Being a single parent any financial assistance would come along way. My decision to purchase a home came to me suddenly. I came in as first time home buyer with limited knowledge on the home buying process. I knew I wanted a home with a two or three bedroom house. I began my home buying process in June 2020. The pre-approval was seamless. I knew I my credit score was excellent but I worried about my debt to ratio. I graduated with $22k in student loan debt. In 2019 I made the mistake of taking out an auto loan under my name for my friend. I would regret making this decision because it complicated the home buying process. I entered into escrow twice. First home was two bedroom and one bathroom. It was suited for a single mother and a child. The location was perfect. I was within in short driving distance to retail stores and Arden Mall. I placed an offer on the home. We were given 21 days to close escrow. American Pacific Mortgage failed to meet the deadline. They had requested for two extensions and still was not able to fulfill their deadline. Ultimately, the seller decided to cancel the sell of the house. I was devastated. I attributed this to my debt to ratio. My home buying journey had to continue. After a few houses later I was fortunate to have found a home within my pre-approval range. I went with my agent Alex Villanueva to go see and loved it! It had everything I wanted in a home. I placed an offer in August 2020. We were given a 30 days to close escrow. The seller asking price was slightly higher than my pre-approved home loan. My agent spoke with Jason and asked if he would be able to increase my pre-approved home loan to meet the seller's terms. Jason made it happen I was beyond ecstatic. As mentioned previously, the auto loan was negatively affecting my home loan process. This was placing a stop with getting my home loan approved. Jason and his team asked for an extension and the seller complied. At times was it hard to get into contact with Jason but attributed to working on getting the home loan. It was through my agent Alex that I found out that Jason had pulled strings and made my dreams of owning a home a dream come true! We were past our closing escrow deadline at this point. At the end, the home loaned was approved! I was finally able to breath a sigh of relief. I knew the home buying process would become be stressful but it would be worth it at the end. I officially became a home owner on October 15, 2020. Thank you to Jason Mata and American Pacific Mortgage for delivering!

Whenever I emailed him with a question (which was a lot), he always either responded to the email within minutes, or called me back right away. With a different mortgage company a few years ago, I often had issues with getting a response (especially to the "dumb questions"), however I didn't have that issue with Jason. His responses were always quick & clear, which was really helpful since it was my first refi. Thanks again for going above and beyond in securing the best rate possible during such a difficult, stressful time. I will be recommending Jason to others.
