Most of my business comes from past clients sending me their kids, parents, and friends. That's the metric I care about most. Below are a few of their stories — grouped by situation so you can find the one closest to yours.
A lot of my clients come to me after another lender (or two, or three) said it couldn't be done. These are the wins that mean the most.
Art and his crew are highly exceptional in making impossible things possible. With a very small income and high debt-to-income ratio, I knew I was just chump change to most lenders. But I never was too small for him. He pushed, followed up, and fought for me until the end. Honestly, I had already given up. He just wouldn't take 'no' for an answer. With a new home of 4 beds and 2.5 baths, my family has never been happier.Diodor G. · First-Time Homebuyer
They exceeded my expectations and handled my difficult loan situation with ease. Thanks so much to the entire team.Yuri M.
About 40% of my closings each year are repeat clients or their direct referrals. That's the metric I care about most.
Let me just start by saying thank you. This is my fourth loan with Art, and it's excellent service all around. Every time the process gets easier.Stan M. · Repeat Client (4 loans)
Best mentor ever. Very honest and professional. I wish I'd met him earlier. Easy to approach, always available to answer every concern. I definitely recommend him for any mortgage question.Edwin G.
Art is a true master of his craft. He gives great advice on what mortgage product fits best, and he's passionate about helping clients build personal wealth through real estate. He's never pushy and never puts clients in a spot where they could fail. I'd trust Art with any of my clients.Daniel B. · Real Estate Professional
We'd been with several mortgage companies as my family was looking to buy our first home. We visited his office without any papers, but Art went out of his way and entertained our inquiry without hesitation. He guided us as if we were a long-time client. He kept an eye on the market and the rate to get us the best deal. Couldn't thank him enough.Macky F. · First-Time Buyer
Fantastic experience buying my first home. Great people. Made it very easy.Arturo O. · First-Time Buyer
We lived in California, and Art did what so many lenders here deemed impossible. He helped us qualify to buy our dream home. He was professional, knowledgeable, and gave us great advice. From the first call, we felt we could trust him. A few years later he helped us with another transaction.Nancy O. · Relocated from California
