I would highly recommend Julie and the entire Aragon Lending Team. As a real estate agent, I've come across a lot of lenders and you really want a lender that is trustworthy. Los Angeles is very competitive and you need a lender that can move fast. This helps in writing highly competitive terms which helps in beating multiple offers. Julie and her team are always super fast to respond and offer creative solutions to tricky situations. You want a confident, trustworthy and highly responsive lender in your corner when buying. Aragon is just that and more!

Julie, Mike, Suzie, and team are awesome. They are a fast and solid group who were adept at managing the many ups and downs of our home search. They are great at explaining the complex factors and machinations of getting a home loan to laymans (like my fiance and I), which helped us navigate the process. And when we eventually got an offer accepted, Julie and team were aggressive in getting the loan docs out so we could close the deal. Most of all, we felt like the lending aspect of the process was handled, which freed up brain space in what can be an overwhelming process. Thank you team.

Julie and her team were so FAST! I was the buyer's realtor during this home purchase, and they were so good at what they do that they allowed us to make a super competitive offer with a very quick closing that won us the house. Julie's team had loan docs out for closing before we had even finished negotiating the seller repairs! Wow, unheard of...Julie also has a great communication system that keeps everyone informed, so no one was ever texting me to ask what's going on. Definitely will be sharing her contact to my buyer clients moving forward!

Julie, Mike and the entire Aragon team were a joy to work with. As two first time homebuyers with very little knowledge of the process, we had to heavily lean on them for guidance and education - which they delivered every step of the way. They are all so knowledgeable, kind and helpful. Aragon really goes out of their way to ensure that the buyer is completely comfortable and fully understands all aspects of the lending process. We highly recommend the Aragon team and will absolutely return to them for all our future lending needs.

Julie and her team are spectacular! She is an excellent loan officer and an absolute consummate professional. Her knowledge of her loan products is top tier and simply a pleasure to work with. I have worked with Julie on multiple escrows since 2008 and will continue to work with her and her team. Give Julie a call! 5 Star Pro!

Julie and her team are simply THE BEST. The Aragon Lending Team made our home buying process seamless. Given our multiple streams of income, I apprehensive about being approved; without jumping through the numerous hoops that previous lenders required. Julie had us approved in just one day. After entering escrow, we closed within 15 days. Everything was so simple. The added bonuses were her witty emails.Many thanks to Julie, Michael, and Suzie.

I was honestly appalled by the conversation I had with Julie the other day. My family and I have decided to purchase our first home and just as any first time homebuyers, I looked to the internet to find a firm that we would feel comfortable, well managed and go to bat for us. Julie represented from her mannerisms and rude satire, that this wouldn't be a great fit however I gave her the benefit of the doubt and continued on with my conversation instead of rudely interrupting her right in her tracks.At the beginning of our conversation, we went over a quick overview of financials and I guess I was talking a bit fast or perhaps faster then she can comprehend and she cut me off and said "Woah slow down, you got a lot going". I was really off-put by that remark but perhaps I was indeed talking too fast, HOWEVER, If I was in her shoes I would not have said something along those lines.Reaching out and starting this process can be very nerve wracking and so she should definitely be one to understand that by telling someone what she just said, can make them feel even more tense. But whatever, I continued on and we were discussing some old financial situations that I wanted to disclose and she sarcastically remarked "and you wanna buy a house?". I was ASTONISHED by that comment! It is one thing to educate a borrower gently that buying a home might not be feasible but another thing to try and talk one out with a Ill-mannered and disgusting assumption!Just some insight on my family's and I financials situation, we can afford a house twice the cost of the average home if we really wanted too but have maybe just a bit more of an interesting file then a normal cut and dry w2 co signer ship.That was the final straw for me but I was cordial and wanted to make it seem it was worth her time to take my call but I was pretty much done with asking her anymore questions that pertained to a home at this point. My last question was "What differentiates your firm from others or is there something that your company does that adds comfort to buyers choosing you". All Julie has to say was "I think our reviews speak for themselves". She didn't have an ounce of pride for her company or even tried to turn this conversation around with trying to vouch for herself or their services.I can't believe this person has the chance to talk to other potential buyers! I have tough skin but there is people out there that maybe have a bit more sensitive demeanor or not as strong of a file that she is talking to and I'm not okay with that! Avoid this place or at least avoid Julie.I have since spoke with 3 more lenders/brokers who have been the utmost professional, pleasant and have described the same file as "not a problem", who have also put faith and confidence into their company/brand when asked "why choose them." I am now proceeding with the pre-approval process.

It was my pleasure working with Julie Aragon, she went above and beyond to help me. I was struggling, and being turned away from others and running in circles. We all know how much of a HEADACHE that can be. But Julie got me answer's no one else took time to find out for me in my desperate time of need. And for that, your an Angel Julie.

Julie and team were excellent for our home purchase in 2022. They were referred to us by our realtor and couldn't have been happier. This wasn't our first home purchase but they were much better than the last lenders I worked with. Working with them felt like a white glove experience. I hope to use them again. And yes, they do try to make the process "fun"! You will get funny text reminders with witty jokes and drink recipes when you need to complete a task or hit a milestone in the process :)

This is the 3rd mortgage I’ve had processed with Julie, Michael and their amazing team. Home loans are not supposed to be this simple. Applying for a loan is incredibly daunting, but they somehow manage to make this typically arduous process, swift, fun and exciting as you tick off each task, moving you closer and closer to the loan getting funded. They foresee every possible scenario that can transpire. They make sure that they are with you every step of the way—to guide you, and to limit any delays. I can’t imagine working with anyone else. You’ll come out very satisfied and a whole lot more savvy.

I have to fully recommend Aragon for their services. We were first time home buyers purchasing a home 200 miles away intrastate and Mike, Alex, Julie, and Suzie gave us the smoothest 21-day close. I had interviewed a few other lenders but went with Aragon because Mike was patient, clear, and concise. He got us a better rate than every other lender. The whole team was incredibly responsive and hard-working. There was never a moment when I wondered what our loan status was. We are so thankful and plan to use them again when we refinance!

I cannot recommend Julie Aragon and her entire team more! Julie is the FASTEST mortgage lender I have encountered in all my years buying/selling real estate. When going up against other competitive offers, and all cash, Julie has helped me and my clients WIN again and again. How do you beat all cash? Julie Aragon Lending Team! In addition to her lightning fast speed and creative lending solutions, Julie also is a PURE DELIGHT to work with. She is always kind and professional, and her communication style is HILARIOUS! You have to get into a deal with her to see what I mean. I really don't know where I would be without Julie and her team of consummate pros! I'm forever grateful for her lending prowess!

Julie & her team yet again delivered on the biggest decision my wife and I ever had to make-OUR HOME! She’s everything you can ever hope for in a mortgage professional. She made my wife fall in love with the buying experience, and she also made some great recommendations with other agents to work with. We owe her so much, and I’m happy to say working with her a second time was just as satisfying as the first. We hope to make it three times a charm with her team in the future. Best believe that! We couldn’t be more thankful! For anyone reading this, if there’s ever any doubt, do yourself a favor and SWITCH to Aragon Lending Team. You’ll thank me later with a reply

Julie & team played and instrumental role in helping us become homeowners. They expedited our pre-approval process so we could put an offer in fast, and they went above and beyond by reaching out to the property's realtor and letting them know we were qualified candidates.Exactly 4 weeks after first contacting Aragon team, we got the keys to our new place. They were fast, nimble, efficient and willing to answer all of our questions at the drop of a hat. I would highly recommend Aragon if you are looking for a mortgage loan!

I have used a number of mortgage brokers over the years and Aragon Lending was far and above the most OUTSTANDING! We did both a refi and new home purchase with the team at Aragon. Their excellent and efficient staff helped us to close each in record time. We were consistently updated about what documents were needed and where we were in the process. There are no long hold times when you call them. Everything is straight forward. I would use them again in a heartbeat and have already recommended them to several friends purchasing their first home. Five stars. Highly Recommended.
