We worked with Ruby at Salmon Bay for about a year and a half as we searched for and bought our…read morefirst home. At the end of the process, my husband said to me, "Now that we've experienced Salmon Bay, no other services are good enough anymore. I want everything I interact with to be as good as Salmon Bay - banking, insurance, everything." A few things we loved: responsive and crystal-clear communication from Ruby and her entire team, sound education for us on how home loans work (I feel like I ACTUALLY understood what was happening and what all the numbers meant the whole way through, as a complete novice), proactive check-ins for 1.5 years just to make sure they stayed updated on our thinking and finances, professionalism in all forms of correspondence, a team that inspired so much confidence with their expertise (special shout out to Paige), kindness and cheerfulness without exception, proactive outreach to the seller's agent within minutes of us making an offer to assure them we were in a strong position to buy (even though it was a major holiday), local credibility and relationships that certainly played a role in getting us our house even though there was a competing offer for $50K more, a clear roadmap for closing and frequent video updates for the whole buying/selling team along the way, willingness to answer all 5,000 minor questions I had during closing as if each one was important and worthy of attention and time, and absolutely no surprises the entire way - not a single surprise. I can't recommend Salmon Bay highly enough!

A good mortgage specialist/broker is not easy to come by. The qualities that make Kirk stand out among the rest is his communication, availability, honesty, creativeness, constant updates, experience, knowledge, and willingness to fight for his clients. If you have ever worked with a loan officer or mortgage broker, you know these qualities is hard to find. An example for his ability to be creative and make things happen, I had a client that fell in love with a house in November. She was denied from Homestreet Bank for a loan, but Kirk was able to make it happen after one phone conversation with her. He took the time to understand her financial situation and was able to work his magic to help her get a loan and close on the house. I have no hesitation referring him to any of my clients. In fact, since I've met Kirk, I've referred all of my clients to him. He has helped over 7 of my clients with their home loans. My only regret is not finding him sooner in my real estate career. One of my clients said it best that Kirk is a like a bulldog that is willing to fight for you.

I've worked with Infinity Mortgage twice now, once in 2009 and then again during the purchase of my…read morenew house that just closed today. Both times I worked with Michael Young and both times, the experience has been excellent. The first time, Michael was incredibly patient as he walked me through the purchasing process in the US as I wasn't familiar with it, being from Canada originally. He answered every question in detail and then, during the actual mortgage application and approval, he kept me up to date during each step. With my current purchase, the experience was the same. Great explanations, lots of followup. He sent updates as soon as events happened (sometimes late at night) and I don't think I waited more than an hour for responses during daylight hours. And then, today, when the escrow company royally screwed up the documents required by the sender, Michael was on the phone with me, the lender, and the escrow company, pushing both of them to sort the situation out so that the funds could still be sent and the purchased closed on schedule. He and his staff ensured that the lender and escrow company were engaged the entire time and not sitting on their hands waiting for the other. What could have been extremely stressful and potentially a delay for the closing ended up being a small road bump in the process. I wholeheartedly recommend Michael at Infinity Mortgage if you ever need a broker.

They had us pre-underwritten within just a few short days and once we put in our first (and only!) offer, his entire team was looped in on where we were in the process and what they needed next from us. We were given weekly email updates, had Tuesday phone calls to ensure we had a platform to ask any/all questions and then provided immediate responses/follow up to our emails. On top of outstanding communication, knowledge and follow through, they are also just kind, genuine people! They were so good to us and truly helped us to celebrate that moment that our loan was finalized on the day we were closing on our house. We knew immediately after meeting with Dan that he would be our mortgage broker and I'd recommend his team to any and all looking to finance a mortgage.
