"Mary is Awesome!! She was so great about answering our questions and making sure we understood the process. Best part, she got us a much lower rate than what was expected! This lending process differed greatly from our first home-buying experience and we will only use Mary from now on!!"
Sekhar
"I worked with Svetlana for an investment property, she not only gave the best possible APR 4.625 when other banks are 5%+, but also made sure to advice on a 30 day lock rather than 45 day for the best possible interest. She is great at driving for dates and get things done on time. I had another issue of appraisal where my property didnt quite fit into the conventional home loan category, she worked with multiple appraisers and made her case that it is still conventional, all this i didnt know were happening and just saw the result that everything came together for my purchase. Delighted and highly recommend her for her customer commitment. "

Ruth
Shelton, WA
"Washington First Mortgage finally got me out of refinance purgatory!My partner and I started this process 15 months ago. I had absolute confidence in the value of the property, the income it brings in, and I knew there was a ton of equity.But we were turned down, lender after lender after lender. I’ve lost count of the number of banks we applied with.Granted, we both have serious credit black marks. But we have since acquired several properties and have been up to date on our bills.One lender was about to approve us but their appraiser came in with a lowball value. I challenged it to no avail.Another lender strung us along for MONTHS with a pre-approval, and repeatedly asked for more and more documentation. There was always something new he needed, it was never-ending, and this guy never returned phone calls and never returned emails.Thank God I met Donald Hathaway and in turn, Tryg Satterlee. They told me with confidence that they could do the loan and the process was quick and relatively painless. Thank you, thank you, thank you! "

"We recently closed on a home mortgage loan. Our mortgage broker was Kelly Rose-Anderson. We are submitting this letter to congratulate Kelly on a job well done.Kelly located a lender with very competitive rates and provided us with options allowing us to choose our preference regarding fees and rates. Kelly learned we were going on vacation during the processing time and she took care of making sure our loan was processed quickly and accurately.Obtaining a home loan can be quite complicated because of all the rules and regulations involved. Kelly kept an open line of communication with us and answered all our questions to our satisfaction.We would recommend Kelly to friends and family and should we decide to re-finance in the future, Kelly is our first choice.

"I wish it will be more then 5 stars rating, because Svetlana Vikanova exceeded all expectations with my refinancing. It was the best experience I can only ask for. I was planning to refinance for at least last two years, but the thought of the hustle was pushing my decision back over and over again. Svetlana came to my work and stayed with me until she got all the information to start the process. I went to the office only once to sign final documents and I got the best possible rate. Svetlana was fast, effective and provided best deal I only can ask for. Thank you for turning this previously stressful for me experience into an extremely positive. "

"I would like to thank Svetlana on a job well done helping me and my family in obtaining the loan we needed for the purchase of our home. Svetlana did an outstanding job in closing under a tight deadline and staying within the promised budget. Having to close on time was is a crucial factor in today's aggressive market and it was a deal breaker in this transaction if not followed through. I've worked with Svetlana before on refinance during my previous home ownership and I knew that she won't fail me to deliver the same outstanding results as before for this major milestone in my life.

"Hello,I am writing to review my experience with Cassandra Wickholm as my loan officer. My husband and I began searching for our first home in February 2016 and contacted Cassandra for our pre-approval. Cassandra clearly communicated what information she needed from us and was prompt in getting us pre-approved. When we did find the home for us, Cassandra was organized and clear about what we needed to do next to get the ball rolling. She updated us often on how the process was going and if she noticed there was any other information we needed to provide. Cassandra's attention to detail, organization, and hard work made locking a loan a very smooth and easy process for us. Overall Cassandra was kind, well-informed, organized, and prompt. She kept us apprised of the situation every step of the way and answered any questions we had quickly (even on weekends!). I knew we were in capable hands while working with Cassandra and I trusted her to do what was best for us. If you are interested in working with someone who will put in 130% and is up to date on what is happening in the market, work with Cassandra Wickholm, she'll help you finance for the home of your dreams.
