From the very beginning, Carlos was patient, professional, and genuinely supportive. His warm personality made me feel completely comfortable asking any questions I had along the way, no matter how big or small. Carlos was always more than happy to explain everything in detail and guide me through each step of the process. He made sure I felt informed and confident throughout the entire experience. I truly appreciate his dedication, responsiveness, and the care he showed during such an important time in my life. I'm incredibly thankful for Carlos and the service he provided. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and kind mortgage professional.

From our very first call, we were extremely impressed with her knowledge and professionalism. She took the time to truly get to know us and understand our homebuying goals. As first-time homebuyers, the process was entirely new and, at times, overwhelming. However, Mina has a calming and reassuring presence that helped alleviate many of our concerns. She was able to help us close on a very tight timeline, which made our offer stand out. She also turned around mortgage scenarios quickly for multiple properties we were interested in, with varying financing options--sometimes even multiple times in a single day. Every time we spoke with her, she was transparent about the process and clearly communicated next steps. Thanks to her diligence, she was able to lock in our rate just before they increased significantly, which we are very grateful for. She was always available when we needed her, and we truly could not have asked for a better lending partner. We look forward to maintaining our relationship in the years ahead as we settle into our new home.

Nicholas was super quick with everything and didn't waste time going back and forth. He explained things clearly, got right to what mattered, and that made it really easy for me to make decisions without second guessing. Mari stayed on top of everything behind the scenes and kept things moving. Anytime something came up, she was already on it, which took a lot of stress off my plate. Overall just a really solid experience. If you're going through a loan and want people who are responsive and actually make things easier, I'd definitely recommend them.

Here's what's next: Customize your offer Choose from a variety of rate, term, and payment options. Complete your application Digitally verify your identity, income, and speak with an eNotary*. Voila!

This company knew where I lived in Florida and denied going further with my applications according to their underwriters. This company refused to take on the difficult circumstances of my son as co-owner and living in NY as I live in the residence in Florida. I would not consider to use this company.

Erik was willing to compete to provide the best rate, terms, and guaranteed on time closing. He provided a quick pre-approval letter that was needed to make a more competitive offer to the house sellers. He was transparent on budget and the money down that would provide the pricing. Following the home inspection and our intent to proceed with staying under contract, he provided the best loan estimate and fixed rate with no points from a pool of five different lenders that were all in competition for my business. Optimum First won out with a loan estimate that the other lenders couldn't beat. Everyone at Optimum First was very responsive, even at odd hours or weekends. We were moving from Virginia to Texas and with Optimum based out of California, the time zone difference played to our favor since we could email and contact them after work on the East coast and they would respond the same day with the three hour time zone difference. Make sure they lend in the state you are considering on buying. They are CA based and cover a lot of states, but I am not sure if they cover all of them. After we committed to using Optimum First as our lender, we generally had no issues with loan processing and providing necessary documentation or follow-up info for underwriting. However, one word of advice is I would recommend as soon as you know you want to stay under contract (likely after your home inspection) and proceed with the house you want to purchase, obtain your final, bound homeowners insurance policy with your preferred provider (not just a quote, the policy) as soon as possible. This will be needed with Optimum First for your clear to close letter and any buyer financing requirements stated in your contract. It will help make sure you close on time to make sure the policy is in place as soon as you can get when you commit to Optimum and go into underwriting.

    The loan officer who assisted me in obtaining my mortgage did an adequate job. Not great, not…read morebad, adequate. I was notified by Optimum several months after the mortgage was written, that they had failed to secure my identity and financial data, putting me at risk for credit fraud. Given the a voluminous amount of financial & identity data which mortgage processors require, its very disconcerting that Optimum did not take adequate precautions to ensure the security of my data.
