At one point told me I could go up to 550k for a duplex so I sold My condo thinking I could get a duplex, once i sold my Condo and was ready to go reached back out and he lowered my approval to 500k 50k less that was huge deal Breaker. That 50k less Meant not being able to get anything in a half ok area, only the ghetto. So I sold My condo for nothing pretty much.

Mike was awesome to work with during my home refinance. As a new homeowner (and one that is always…read morelooking to save, yet doesn't know exactly how to do so), Mike was incredibly helpful all throughout the process. He educated me on the pros and cons of doing so and also made it very applicable to our specific situation. It's important to note that this all happened during the first six months of the pandemic where there was just so much uncertainty. All in all the process took maybe 3ish months from start to finish and we have been happily locked into our new rate the last year and a half or so. Throughout this time he was incredibly responsive, sending text replies within minutes of me sending off any questions (but not so responsive that it became unmanageable). Communication is so important and doing it right means you always earn my business. I plan to continue discussions with Mike for future similar inquiries. Thanks, Mike!

Our amazing financial journey with Mike Lee began in the first quarter of 2021. He was referred to…read moreus by an amazing Real Estate company, Livingstone Realty Group. We were looking for ways to reduce our debt. Mike was and is very professional. He guided us through the process and offered personal professional assistance at anytime of day and the few times that we needed questions answered late into the night, he was there for us both times. Yes, that's not a typo. He facilitated our cash out refinance and the last quarter of 2021, he facilitated a refinance to further reduce our interest rate!! He is an amazing mortgage broker and we highly recommend him for anyone who needs an honest, thoughtful, professional, and genuinely caring person whom you can trust has your best interest at heart. As we move forward into semi-retirement, we are relatively debt free thanks to Mike and his guidance while facilitating our financial needs. He is simply the best of the eight mortgage brokers we have used in our property purchases and refinances. Gail and Rufus Thompson

I thought I would never end up buying a house...so when I found my dream home just randomly driving…read moreby one day, I realized I didn't have any knowledge of how the process work. While my parents introduced me to a family friend who was a real estate agent, I had no idea how to go about finding a loan officer! After digging through Yelp/Google, I stumbled upon Meridox Mortgage that had stellar reviews and took a chance. I called Meridox and was put in touch with Trung Tran. I let him know that I didn't have any knowledge of how the house-buying process works, but he was incredibly supportive and assured me he would walk me through every step. Shortly after we finished talking on the phone, he sent me a list of items to provide for the pre-approval letter. Trung's turnaround was quick. I sent him my information in the evening and got the letter the next morning. My real estate agent used this letter to draft the offer...it was accepted! After my offer was accepted, the rest of the process was somewhat nebulous, but my real estate agent worked closely with Trung to help me through. Trung was with me every step of the way. He patiently explained how my monthly mortgage payment and closing costs were calculated and even helped me negotiate a home insurance offer. He even kept a close eye on the market and advised me when I should lock in the rate. I thought home buying would be more stressful, but it wasn't as bad as I thought because Trung made every step clear and was very on top of deadlines. From pre-approval to loan closing, it took just one month! Thank you Trung for being so diligent and patient in helping me secure my dream home! Trung was also very proactive in reaching out to me a few months later when interest rates dropped by about 1%. I had the honor of working with Trung again for my refinance, and it was also efficient and painless! I recommended Trung to my coworker recently when she was looking to buy a condo. Highly recommended to anyone who is in a market for a house to look into Meridox!! Thanks again for your hard work, Trung!!!

I cannot recommend them enough. Linh is an amazing service provider, and she will meet you at your…read morelevel. A little background: I did 2 house purchases, and 1 house sale by myself without a realtor before engaging Meridox. I didn't need handholding, because I was not a first-time buyer. I wanted an advisor who can give me an honest opinion as to pricing, knows the neighborhoods, and can negotiate with the seller's agent. Linh was so on top of things. She understood that I was busy and scheduled multiple showings for me on weekends. She mapped out our route, so we can be efficient with time. She never asked me to consider any property that was outside my price range or not what I was looking for. I was able to knock out many home viewings with her, and we put in a couple of offers. I saw a house that fell out of escrow. I messaged her, and she was immediately on it. She showed me the house, called the seller's agent, and basically convinced the seller to take my offer that was a tad below listing that either that same day or the next. (OC is a hot market, so this was an incredible deal! My other offers all sold above listing.) She was incredibly responsive, super sharp, and very easy to work with. I used Meridox as my mortgage broker as well and used them again to refinance a year later. Very seamless and easy transaction. Forget all the agents who claim to "treat you like family." Choose Meridox: the true professionals.

Besides that, we literally had someone by our side the whole time carving the path to our success in home buying. We worked with Ryan over a year, and he was so patient with us the whole time. I'm sure at some point he was probably exhausted over us not finding our home, but it was really hard to find a home at a reasonable price the last few years. Ryan stayed calm and just let us know to reach out when we were ready, which one day, we were! Definitely consider Ryan if you are ever looking for your mortgage lender!
