Hank and his team really impressed me during my clients recent real estate transaction. He and his…read moreteam were constantly keeping me and my clients informed throughout the entire loan process. Any time I picked up the phone, Hank or his team would always answer. Any time I sent an email, I got an almost instant response. Any questions I had, Hank would give me honest, and thorough answers. As a realtor, I have worked with a lot of lenders in my real estate journey, and none of them have been as responsive, helpful, and professional as Hank and his team. Whether you are first time home buyers, or have an expansive real estate portfolio, Hank and his time will be able to take great care of you.

Absolutely no idea where he's getting these raving reviews... I had reached out to him when we were…read morefirst house hunting and he seemed friendly and knowledgeable. However, he was so unprofessional. He would constantly miss calls that we had scheduled and when the time passed, he would ask if we could start later etc. He would join calls unprepared and say "I think you're pretty-approved for x amount." I don't care what you think. I need to know what I am pre-approved for. He was not able to get us approval for as high loans as other lenders. When he said he would send us some scenarios the next day, he never sent and then entirely ghosted. It followed up a few times and never heard back. I would not trust him to get the job done when the time come given the lack of communication and professionalism shown.

Aaron was a terrible consultant who provided obstacles at every turn. As a result we terminated him. He did nothing but delay our ability to receive our loan money and took several days and several phone calls before even replying. When he did reply it was short and didn't actually address what was needed. I believe he was also purposefully ignoring us since we are a gay couple because he ended up texting us a homophobic comment after termination and addressing his unprofessional behavior and lack of timeliness. My husband would call him several times and I had never used my number to contact him, so I decided to give him a call and lo and behold magically he could respond when he was radio silent to my husband. He even threatened to report me and my texts to the bank, which is hilarious because he would just be doing me a favor of displaying his incompetence and saving me the time of complaining about him to the bank which we did anyways.

Reposting this review because apparently Yelp won't let you call someone homophobic because it's…read moreobjectionable, so I won't do that. Instead, I will simply say what happened and you can decide for yourself. Aaron Baldwin did not perform his job to my satisfaction at all (no judgment here, only MY experience). After quitting on me because he didn't want to do his job and I told him a piece of my mind, he texted me to "get our nails done" (screenshot of text below). You can decide for yourself if that is homophobic or not. Though I can't say for sure, I believe that this might be the reason why he performed so poorly the whole time. If that isn't enough to make up your mind, keep reading: - Aaron ignored my husband during his second inspection and pretended not to know who he was, as if I hadn't mentioned his name several times and that he was going to be there - ignored phone calls, emails and texts and would not get back to me unless I called 5-10 times in a row. The only thing he would text is "call you right back" and then never call. Also, took several days to complete the simplest tasks such as signing a document after promising to do it that day. "Same day"? More like next week if you insist. - general incompetence/sabotage: he kept saying that he's been doing this job for 30 years, but didn't actually give any solid advice and pretended not to know the most basic things. When I would ask him about changing our contract to reflect the changes to our project, he would simply say "the contract is the contract", "ask the bank" and that he didn't know if that was ok. But when I called the bank, they couldn't believe it because it's "obviously his job" (sic) to initiate a change request. When I asked him to finally submit the request, he quit on me because we're "too much trouble". And he will probably say that it's because we didn't get permits etc etc but we got all the permits we needed and he was trying to force us to get more permits which would cost unnecessary time and money! Because of this delaying and simply not doing his job, we got our loan money significantly later than we should have and are experiencing serious cash flow issues and now on top of that we have to find a new consultant. Mind you, I was willing to work with him and he was the one who quit. Knowing what I know now I should have fired him a long time ago, but I didn't know that was even possible. I'm just relieved that I never have to deal with this man again and hope that everyone else will run from him too. I finally decided to tell him about the things he did wrong and all he could give was pathetic excuses and "stop harassing me". It's really sad that there are so few 203k consultants in Los Angeles and options are limited, but I can really only urge you to find someone else if you need one.
