See How We’ve Helped Clients Across California Achieve Their Dreams

We’ve worked with Stephanie Smith for well over twenty years for both our real estate buy/sell transactions as well as mortgage refinance in more recent history. Stephanie can execute any transaction from start to finish with excellent communication, professionalism, and always with ethical fairness with client-centric focus. We’ve been through five seamless real estate transactions and she made the impossible, possible, with our latest refinance. We recently attempted to refinance and were turned down twice (as our home business made things a bit more complicated) and no one wanted to put in the needed extra effort. Of Stephanie’s superlatives, this one shines the brightest. She can make the seeming impossible happen because she relentlessly works for her client, putting in the extra efforts necessary to please her clients and accomplish what she sets out to do for her clients. Highly, highly recommended.

Stephanie did a fantastic job of getting us the best rate possible and did it fast! We were able to close on our home right on time and she kept us informed throughout the whole process.

Mr. and Mrs. Larazzi Carlsbad, CA

We were in the market for buying our first home and had no idea where to get started. Stephanie walked us through the whole process from start to finish. Stephanie took the time to get to know me and my situation so she could find what mortgage product was best for me. She even showed us how to get a higher credit score before our purchase. This ended up saving us thousands of dollars on interest! For any future mortgage we are going with Stephanie.
