Kat Whitman processed my mortgage for my townhouse in 2018 and I can comfortably say, she is beyond stellar! Kat truly has YOUR best interest at heart and she will find the best mortgage for YOU!
And here is one example to that point. About 4 months after closing escrow, Kat called me to inform me that she put me on her calendar to see if I am interested to refinance, as rates had been dropping and it looked that they would drop even further. (After six months of close of escrow you are allowed to refinance). Since my close of escrow, mortgage rates had dropped 1 point from 5% to 4 %. I said yes of course because 1% can make a big difference on monthly mortgage payments. Kat helped me to reduce my mortgage payment substantially . She is one of the best lenders to have by your side. BTW, This woman works all the time and answers her phone and is a quick responder. Philipp A. Schaedler 
Now, of course, the story gets tricky because I just told you that Kat is one of the best mortgage brokers. However, the truth is, there’s also Ron Glasser. I had the pleasure of working with Ron on a transaction that became so complicated my seller wanted me to cancel the contract and put the property back on the market.
It was only because of Ron that I decided it was worth convincing my seller to wait a little longer before canceling. Ron was incredibly communicative, exceptionally knowledgeable, and even went above and beyond by driving to the downtown LA city office to pick up a check and personally deliver it to the escrow office to ensure we could close. Ron was consistently apologetic about the situation, even though it wasn’t his fault. That showed me he’s a true team player—always focused on solving problems and keeping everyone on track to reach the closing table. Honestly, I’ve never seen anything like it in this business. What’s more, I’ve never worked as a seller’s agent with a buyer’s lender (Ron) and found myself so eager to work with him again! Philipp A. Schaedler

Mike Meena is another fantastic lender! While I haven’t had the pleasure of working with him directly, I can attest to his expertise in unique and challenging cases. He was the only lender I could find who could issue a mortgage to a Swiss citizen with no credit history, no American passport, and no green card—yet still managed to secure approval for a $3 million mortgage to buy a house in the U.S.
While everyone else, including other lenders, told me it was impossible, Mike said it could be done with some customized conditions, such as a higher down payment and a slightly higher interest rate. Mike Meena is also a long-standing member of the Real Estate Group, which I joined a few years ago. Philipp A. Schaedler |
