We had a very good experience using Community Mortgage for our refinance. It took a little longer to close due to COVID and how busy they were, but we weren’t in a big hurry. We were so pleased with their service that we recommended Community Mortgage to our sister and brother-in-law law. Very happy! Thanks!read more

Sean, Aryn and collective group were nothing short of amazing. Executing our refinance during a turbulent time was certainly not easy on their part with the additional effort needed to navigate the new loan back checks. Community Mortgage reached out to us regularly to provide us with updates and reassurance of progress. This group will most certainly be my first phone call when needing loan support in the future. Thank you so much!!!!read more

They are the best team ever to work with! As a business woman running a company and a large family I am pulled in so many directions. This team stepped up and was able to take so much off my back. They handled and directed me through the refinancing so well, I was still able to run my business and family needs with ease.read more

If there was an option for 20 Stars, it wouldn't be enough. The entire team at Community Mortgage went about and beyond every step of the way during the refinancing of our home. During these very difficult times, we were treated like we were their primary focus, guiding us through every step of the way. The climate changed daily and they were beyond fabulous. Aryn and her team treated us as valued friends and kept us informed of the daily changes in the industry. I cannot speak highly enough of their professionalism, industry knowledge, and stellar customer service. Community Mortgage is the only option you should consider for your mortgage needs.read more

I appreciated Sean's knowledge. He didn't hesitate to share his own experience as a homebuyer and had a really great grasp on options...options I had never even considered. I also enjoyed the follow up with Jamie. Every question I had was answered to the fullest and beyond. Jamie did a really great job putting things into terms that my wife and I could both digest and carry with us when the time comes. It's really important for me to trust and connect with the people who are potentially handling such a monumental decision and global mortgage made me feel more like an old friend from high school than 'just another potential client'. That's what, I think, will stick with me the most.read more

We couldn't be happier with our refinance experience with Community Mortgage. They found us the most competitive rate, had wonderful communication and follow-through, and were truly pleasant to work with. Being a relative new first-time buyer, the process can be very intimidating. Sean, Aryn, and La Rae were patient, thorough, and informative as they walked us through the entire process. I look forward to the opportunity to work with them again!read more

I felt very comfortable during the process of refinancing and would highly recommend them.read more

This is my second time I use Community Mortgage for refinancing my condo. I went to two lenders to help me refinance and it took forever to get response and with higher interest rate. Jamie called just to say how i am doing. Thanks for his call and I told him whats going on. He asked for some information to start. The following day I went to see him and gave the necessary information. I got the response in couple of days and find the lender with the best lowest VA funding. Arin is updating the loan status every week and I do not do anything, just wait for loan status. The process went so smoothly until financed. I paid $0.00, all closing cost and fees were included. Kudos to the Community Mortgage Team for their excellent communication and job well done.read more

Community Mortgage is undoubtedly a 5 star business that deserves praise, recognition and therefore a full recommendation. Sean, Aryn and Jamie worked fastidiously to ensure a smooth, timely, low interest, personable & pleasant mortgage loan acquisition experience. Each of them were readily available throughout the process with all forms of communication making what might often be a highly stressful transaction into one that made us feel comfortable, confident and low stress.read more

Community Mortgage and their team is absolutely amazing. Matt has been my main point of contact through not one but two refinances. There is a very small percentage of companies that want your best interest and Community Mortgage is your go to company. Matt has listened to our needs and concerns and made the process extremely easy. For many of us; refinancing a property can be overwhelming. Knowing that I will be getting an email at the end of the week with status updates gives me peace of mind. Not only is this company proffesional but they show they care and that goes way beyond words. I will forever go to Community Mortgage and their team for any future home purchase or lending. I strongly recommend them! Matt and Aryn are amazing!read more

In an industry full of brokers who say they can get the job done the whole Community Mortgage team is at the top of their field in being capable in accomplishing and following through with every promise. My advice for anyone seeking a mortgage broker is to ask good questions, get everything in writing and heed the advice of an experienced Realtor. Hiring Community Mortgage is at the top of my list of advisement to my clients who need to finance their first home, vacation home or move up home.read more

My family and I had the pleasure working with community mortgage. The experience was absolutely amazing! Jaime and Aryn are "THE BEST"! They explain everything in detail throughout the whole process and they make certain that you understand all information. They treated us like family and were very transparent which is very rare in this line of business! They went above and beyond and the customer service was exceptional! Even after you close your loan, they will keep in contact with you and make sure you have a good transition. I highly recommend them and I am very thankful! What a GREAT TEAM!!!read more

Everyone at Community Mortgage is amazing and helped my husband and I become first-time homeowners! We didn't think it was possible for us to buy a house in this hot San Diego market, but Sean, Jamie, Aryn, and Cameron were so helpful in showing us that home ownership was possible. They were upfront and honest about what we could afford and were always so quick to respond when we had any questions about different kinds of loans for various houses we were looking at. Their team was able to shop our mortgage around and got us a better rate than we imagined and were able to get us more credits to lower our monthly payment. It never took them more than 24 hours to respond to any of our calls or emails which made the process smooth. The process went so smooth that we were able to close escrow on a VA loan in 21 days! It would have closed faster if the seller was as ready as Community Mortgage was to get the job done. We look forward to working with them in the future and recommending them to anyone looking to purchase a home!read more

I love community mortgage! I met sean about 5 years ago, after I bought my condo. I wish I would have known him prior. My husband and I are going to be buying a house in two years. What I love about community mortgage is that they help you plan in advance. They definitely care about relationships with their clients. Everyone is super friendly and always greets me when I come in. I love their new spot right off of morena Blvd. Sean’s office has a wonderful view. Very peaceful, and when it comes to talking about saving and money that is what you need! A peaceful place to be in. I appreciate all of you hard work Sean and I can’t wait until we buy our dream home out in Ramona. Thanks for everything you have taught we about growing my business and planing for the future!read more

I am a happy homeowner thanks to the amazing work by the team at Community Mortgage. I had nothing short of a very pleasant experience interacting with the entire team of personable individuals. I worked directly with Jamie and I had no doubt that he had my best interests at heart and mind. As a first time home buyer he made the, often times complex, language of financing various types of loans very easy for me to understand. He tirelessly worked to ensure that I was 100% tuned in to the entire process as he secured my VA loan at an amazing rate! I would hands down recommend Community Mortgage for all, regardless if you're a first timer or a real estate veteran!read more
