Steve as always DELIVERS! Call him the Mailman!

We worked with Steve for over two years. As first time home buyers, we knew very little about the lending process. What we appreciate most about working with Steve is that he was patient and always willing to answer our questions - often taking our calls after business hours. Despite the ups and downs of the market and interest rates and our ever changing wants and needs, Steve remained patient and walked us through the loan process several times until we eventually found the right home at the right price at the right time. Once our offer was accepted, Steve and his team really shined. They secured the best loan possible, patiently walked us through all the documents, clearly communicated any and all information, and worked diligently to make sure we were able to close on time without any hiccups. Throughout it all, we were very impressed with Steve?s willingness to support us in the home buying process. We never felt pressured, and always felt that Steve prioritized our family?s best interest over everything else. We?ve come to consider Steve as not just a trustworthy and skilled professional, but also a kind and patient human being. Sincerely, Monica and Trevor Davis

Steve is extremely knowledgeable; my clients and I are very happy working with him. Steve has great communication skills and answers all of our questions.

Steve is amazing! He is fast, clear, direct and most of all honest! There is no bait ans switch here. He will take care of giy and help you make the best decision for you!

Steve is kind, he cares, and he listened to us. He helped us get a loan in a tough market and got us through the ups and downs of multiple offers and unforeseen complications in the real estate transaction. I highly recommend Steve. We hope to refinance with him should the rates drop. He understands the loan products available to veterans and I think that is rare in brokers.

Steven took the time to explain everything needed and why and how for my parents and I. This was a more complicated process and he was very patient and knowledgeable.

We loved working with Steve, especially as first-time homebuyers. Steve advised us well every step of the way, and took time to patiently explain all the unfamiliar territory we were encountering. Even though buying your first home is inevitably a scary process, working with Steve allowed us to sleep at night! We knew we were in good hands. Grateful to Steve and his team for making this happen for us!

I've been working with Steve for 19 years now. He's my go-to mortgage broker for all my clients.

Experienced, responsive, fast service, provided info needed, can-do attitude to make it happen.

Open and clear communication along the entire process! As a first time home-buyer I had many questions along the way, but Steve and team were always there to answer and clarify the steps along the way.

Thanks for everything Steve! Made our first home buying experience relatively easy and straightforward. Helped us close on our new home very quickly!

Steve went above and beyond in every way possible! He was patient, prompt and very detailed in all his communications.

Steve and his Team were very friendly, knowledgeable and easy to work with throughout the process. This began with a couple of in-depth conversations with Steve to determine the best home financing option for our situation and continuing with personalized "hand-holding" throughout the process, ending with a successful result. Steve and his Team are a great group!

Steve Vella and his team worked hard to find the most creative and best funding and terms for our recent home purchase. They were very thorough and attentive to details. The loan was well-coordinated and it took less than 21 days to close.

Steve Vella is amazing! Very professional, supportive with a cool sense of humor during stressful times and always calm with reassuring style

Steve communicated the entire process and throughly explained our options and was able to work with us to get mortgage funded in a shortend timeline.

Not up to writing out

From the day we started conversation, Steve had been a guide and mentor for the whole process. He was on top of the process on a day by day basis and helped us understand each step and kept us informed. His team was super efficient in getting the documents in the right place and was available for consultation anytime of the day, even after dinner. Thank you Steve for all you did for us. Really appreciate your effort to make the process smooth for us. Thank you.

Steven is extremely knowledgeable and helpful through what can be an intimidating process. He explains each step and makes you feel at ease and confident. He also got us a way better rate than anyone else quoted. Very happy with Steve and would recommend him to anyone!

They?re always glitches when you buy a house. It is what it is, it?s never a pleasant experience.

Responsive and provides expert knowledge.

We were first time home buyers, and Steve and his team provided lending for our purchase. Steve was not only able to provide us a great rate for our financing, but he was also so thorough and transparent with every aspect of the process. Whether reviewing an estimated loan disclosure line by line, explaining the overall process, or outlining the next steps for us to take, we always felt in such good hands. Steve and his team were so responsive, clear and concise, and ultimately made a complex process quite enjoyable!

Great communication, always responded to a call or email. Steve took the time to answer questions and explain in detail. Steve made the whole experience seamless and positive!!!

Steve helped a lot in getting my loan quickly and efficiently.

Buying a home for the first time was incredibly daunting and I didn't know what to expect. Steve and his team walked us through every step of the loan process and helped us get everything in on time. They shed light on what certain jargon meant and what we really needed to pay attention to. They were also available to us even outside of the usual 9-5 work hours which was incredibly helpful when we had last minute questions on time-sensitive documents.

Steven Vella and his team gave me excellent support and service throughout my process to find a new home in the Bay area. I especially appreciated Steven's professionalism - - there were never any glitches, or missed issues. His calm approach, positive outlook. and promptness in responding was something i came to rely upon over several months of finding a new home.
