Well with the help of Debra, I just closed on my first home, and the biggest surprise I ran into was that we closed in less than a month. I will forever think of Debra as a personal friend of mine, as that is how she treated me throughout the entire process. There wasn't one question unanswered, and she really made the entire process feel like I was a member of her own family. I will recommend Debra and iMortgage to anyone and everyone looking for a home for the rest of my life. Thank you so much Debra!

I am self employed and it's much harder to qualify for a loan. I tried refinancing with another company, and I was denied because I write off a lot of expenses for my business. John recommended me a non-qm program, where the lender was looking at 12 months of my bank statements instead of taxes... I didn't know such programs existed... So grateful, that I was able to close on my refinance with a large amount of cash out, yet still a very competitive rate. I am now looking to build a new construction house for the future and I am going to be using Castle Rock Mortgage LLC for that new loan as well... thank

From the very onset my Wife and I felt very comfortable and confident with Mr. Cain. His demeanor, professionalism, knowledge and experience gave us the composure and trust we needed throughout the nerve-wrecking process. People with highly polished work-ethics are a rare breed these days. Mr. Cain is at the top of the list when it comes to work ethic. personal commitment and going beyond the work hours are his unspoken personal "Mission Statement". I am a retired Police Sergeant but still a good judge of character. I was not wrong about Mr. Cain. It is often said that The Good Lord sends us " Angels in Disguise"...Mr. Cain wore his well. Thank you Mr. Cain and everyone at People's Mortgage who made our dream come true. Sincerely, frank & Yolanda Espejo.

Worst mortgage broker ever! Do NOT deal with these falsely…read moremarketed & shady people. I was directed to them as I work in public education for the state of CA. They are the "Teacher Next Door" program lender. DO NOT be fooled - they are amazingly archaic, oblivious to the current real estate market, and offer very high interest rates! We applied for a pre-approval (not full underwriting) with a hard pull on our credit, submitted documents, proof of income and pay stubs. A week later, they reply and said they are sending out written letter of verification of employment. I said WHAT ? We are not at that stage of underwriting so I was confused. So we then get a call from their network "realtor" asking if we wanted to look for a home. I asked realtor "um where do you suggest we look for a home in Los Angeles County for under $400,000 ?". The realtor said nothing - I said, how about a vacant lot in the Mojave desert ? The realtor said she knows something about Southern California realty so tried to apologize. I could not believe the gall of this mortgage company to offer such a low amount to a state of California employee! Very disappointed with this company. Don't waste your time!

Which is fine as I found an amazing company that did a fantastic job through Yelp. Refi is already done and signed on Wednesday. But just so they know... I will make the initial contact, but you either want my business or you don't. Guess not this time. No hard feeling and not upset. Just leaving a review. Edit: I am going to bump up to 3. I was reached out to and definitely felt remorse on their end on the mix up. I obviously cannot give them a high rating as I didn't get to work with them and don't know how well they do personally. But from the amount of positive ratings they have received from others they may be worth checking out. My mix up appears to be just a small blip and not of the ordinary.
