Testimonials

Mortgage Broker

Jeff was a tremendous asset to myself but most importantly to my client. He was able to secure  financing in under ten days in order to save a transaction that otherwise would have been dead. This transaction most certainly depended on Jeff's high level of expertise and relationships in order to get done. I would absolutely recommend Jeff after experiencing first hand his ability to deliver on his commitments.

Real Estate Attorney

Jeff Joseph is one of the most knowledgeable and personable people in the mortgage lending/brokering industry. I have known Jeff for over thirty years, and I have worked with him in various capacities. Jeff and I have worked on matters regarding bankruptcies, lending rates, securities laws relating to the lending industry, and title and disclosure issues. Many times Jeff was asking me for expert advice, and just as many times I was asking Jeff for expert advice. Jeff is a top man in the field of knowing the ins and outs of the mortgage business. A complex title company case recently came in to my office, and Jeff was the first person I contacted. As usual, his input and assistance were right on point.

I've nothing but praise. I'm a mortgage broker and occasionally meet people who need help outside the traditional banks. Jeffrey has been tops in communication, a pleasure to work with, and has provided my clients superb financing and fast closing. What else is there to ask for, that is, why go elsewhere? Certainly a first port of call.

Investor

I met Jeff through a good friend that had invested with him for several years before and vouched for Jeff's expertise, integrity and financial results, so I invested in first trust deeds for a few properties and have been very happy with Jeff's performance over the last few years. He has a very organized system, delivers what he promises, and generally does a great job. We had one investment which got caught up in a contentious family dispute between brothers on a property inherited from their parents, which led to a lawsuit that temporarily held up sale or foreclosure of the property when the main borrower stopped paying on the first trust deed. Jeff rose to the occasion and handled everything very professionally, got the title company to assume the defense of the lawsuit, oversaw the process, and ultimately we got paid the default-rate of interest and all costs incurred in commencing foreclosure. Very happy with the outcome of even the one deal that had some hiccups due to an unforeseen complication with the borrower. Always take a hard look at the opportunities in his quality dealflow.
