2987 College Ave, Berkeley“Faramarz was far and way the most down-to-earth and instructive loan officer I spoke to in my mortgage process. He is a really straight shooter and really appreciate that his team avoids the over sales-y, spammy tactics that so many other brokers take. His underwriting and closing teams were awesome (thanks Maddie and Harly!) and got us closed efficiently and on time.”

As a first-time homebuyer, I was initially overwhelmed, but Scott guided me through every step of the process with patience and expertise. His responsiveness, in-depth knowledge, and reliability made the journey smooth and enjoyable. Scott's understanding of both lending and real estate made him an invaluable resource, turning what started as an intimidating experience into a positive one. I highly recommend Scott to anyone looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable lender. Thank you, Scott, for making my first home buying experience amazing!”

828 San Pablo Ave Ste 220C, Albany“Lanny has been my mortgage lender for over 12 years and from the day we met he has been nothing but honest and straightforward. Over the years and numerous transactions, he has never let me down. He's not the type to let any grass grow under his feet and moves quickly to get loans approved and closed.He's somewhat of a mainstay in our area because time and again he has proven himself to be an exceptionally knowledgeable and a trustworthy mortgage lender amongst the community, here in Albany, California. He has even helped my children with their refinances - it's become a family thing! I would never consider using another lender.Whether it's for a new home purchase or refinance, I highly recommend Lanny Clark for his mortgage services. His professionalism and ability to simplify the lending process is second to none. Lanny takes the time to thoroughly explain options and ensure clients understand each step.It's rare to find a lender that combines sincerity, efficiency, market expertise and strong communication like Lanny does. He has my business for life.”
“Wahid was incredibly patient and kind helping my family secure a VA home mortgage. He educated me through the process during a very turbulent time for mortgage rates (Feb 2023), with a difficult seller. Wahid helped me secure a loan a full 0.5% lower than I could have managed on my own.Oak Leaf Funding will absolutely be the first place I turn to when it makes sense to refinance.”

“RAF Property Management was great in supporting me to rent an apartment in Berkeley! Kate was kind, professional and built a good bridge between me and the owner of the apartment. She helped us to achieve fair agreements, being very empathetic with my situation as a foreigner, always looking for accommodating my needs. The apartment was in very good conditions and when something needed to be done, their staff was very helpful and would fix it without charging me.”
“Great credit union at the heart of downtown Berkeley. Not very busy inside when I went to open an account and join the membership. They have the lowest rates around if you are looking for a loan, and the people are amazingly super friendly.”
“Once more I have come to this bank, to close out a couple of Alan's credit cards and to let them know of his death, since they hold our house mortgage. Bria helped me this time and she was careful, thorough and helpful. It took some time, for which she apologized, but I appreciated both the care she took and her kindness. During my wait I got into an interesting conversation w/ two other patrons, one of whom is planning an upcoming trip to Portugal and wanted lira. The other offered him useful information about the currency exchange at Mechanics Bank in downtown Berkeley, which I had forgotten about. The warmth of the staff at this bank, whether toward me or other customers, is quite engaging and impressive.”

10422 San Pablo Ave, El Cerrito“5 Plus Stars for Veronica A Jackson, Elizabeth Payton Thomas and the Branch Manager for the best Customer Service experience. My appointment required different levels of expertise. Each associate never made me feel like I was just being passed on. They each asked the right questions, repeated my needs back to me and they executed kindly, professionally and clearly. Just before Veronica and I completed our task. The Branch Manager entered Veronica's office and clearly communicated that the next step would require one more stop at the counter. She waived me over and assigned me to a wonderful teller. Again, I was asked all the right questions and completed my purpose for coming to the branch. I am so grateful for the El Cerrito Branch and the staff. Perfect way to complete the year.”
“Vic was a tremendous resource during my recent joint purchase of a house with my partner. This was not my first time buying a home, but it was the first time that I felt completely informed at every step of the loan process. From the moment we contacted him and said we were actively looking all the way through closing, Vic stayed abreast of developments in the market and delivered timely information and updates so that we would be able to get the best deal possible. He and his team had a fast turnaround time when providing necessary documents to our realtor and escrow company, avoiding unnecessary delays and allowing us to close quickly and smoothly. If I'm ever in the market for another house, Vic will be the first person I call.”
