Overall, I had a great experience with Jesse and his staff procuring a mortgage loan for my second home. There was great communication in a timely fashion and no hiccoughs. I have no reservations recommended Jesse Tenenbaum for his knowledge, expertise and professionalism. If you want your loan to fund on time at a good rate Jesse is your go to guy.

Roger Kube of First Cal was recommended to me by my mother when I was beginning my lender search and home buying process. Roger made the process simple and smooth. He was always available and didn't come across as overly anxious/aggressive like I have experienced with other mortgage brokers in the past. He seemed to actually care about making the lending process less stressful and made himself readily available to answer any questions or concerns that I may have had. I would recommend him to friends and family for their lending needs.

Being a first time home buyer I had a hard time understanding all the paperwork and could have not been more overwhelmed with the process of securing a Mortgage. Roger actually made it a fun journey.

Roger was there every step of the way with outstanding customer service and availability if questions came up. At no time of this transaction was I uncomfortable. Thank you for all your help and service, this could have not gone any smoother for me.

I highly recommend Roger if you are looking for an expert in the field and a smooth transaction.

Roger was an experienced expert professional. He was also a great guy to work with, I just really liked him. Everyone at FirstCal Emma Sams and CC Palacio were nice and helpful. I am certain his advice saved me money on interest. He came highly recommended and exceeded expectations. Everything worked out exactly as predicted and on time.

Home buyer

When my husband and I finally made the decision to buy a home for his parents the mortgage interest rates started to creep upwards. We had to act fast and we needed a lender that was sensitive to this need. We were referred to Roger Kube of FirstCal. Roger was very responsive to our calls, texts and emails. When we were becoming skittish about the rising rates, Roger took our call and listened to our concerns. He answered our questions openly and honestly. We felt comfortable about moving forward. After we found the perfect home for our parents and entered into escrow, Roger again proved his commitment and dedication to our needs. When an issue arose during the negotiations with the Seller, Roger was on the phone with my Realtor and they were able to find a workable solution. Escrow closed in less than 30 days. I would recommend Roger Kube, especially if you want to feel like you are his only client.

I highly recommend Roger Kube (mortgage specialist) to help you with the time consuming task of refinancing your home. Roger helped me secure three home refinances in the past three months, one of which was a multi-unit out of state property that Bank of America was having difficulty securing a loan for. Roger takes on the stress for you while finding the best possible interest rates that will meet your needs. Roger is a knowledgeable and caring individual that makes you feel like you've known him for years. Before talking business Roger wants to sincerely know how you've been, how your day is going and any way he can help make it better. He not only becomes a business associate, he becomes your friend. If you're looking for someone to make you feel calm and comfortable during a major financial decision, then Roger Kube and his staff at First Cal Mortgage (Emma Sans) are the people for you.

Home buyer

We worked with Roger while financing our new home. He was fast, efficient, and highly professional. He also stepped in and took over the financing for our home buyers after another finance company dropped the ball and our transaction fell out from under us. He was able to save that deal for the buyers, thus saving our deal. Highly recommend.

First Time Home Buyer

Jesse Tenenbaum was an amazing Mortgage Advisor through my entire process. He was easy to talk to and was able to answer all my questions in a manner which I could understand. Lets face it, real estate terms are not the easiest when it comes to determining the meaning. His customer motto of 'My goal is for you to never be waiting on me, but I am happy to wait on you' was something Jesse always stood to. Anytime my loan changed status he would call me (not email, send a text, etc...) and take that extra 5-10 minutes to make sure I understood what that status change meant and made it clear what I had to do to get to the next phase in my home purchasing process. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking to purchase a home, Jesse is someone who I felt 100% comfortable with financing my home and will absolutely do business again with in the future.

Having Kevin work with you on refinancing a loan is like having a friend who is in the business who is just helping you out. He is very attentive to your needs, and is always checking in to make sure everything is going smoothly. My wife and I have done multiple refinances through Kevin, and have been happy with the process each time. Not only does he know the intricacies of the loan processes, he also knows how to treat his customers. I would recommend him to anyone!!

Kevin is the best. When I came to him he went above and beyond to help me get what I needed, he took the time and really fought to get us the best deal. Throughout the entire process he kept us informed and advised us on the options that were available to us.
When we started, Kevin was just the agent and at the end he became a friend to us.
I strongly recommend Kevin and his services and can assure you, you won't be disappointed.

Ron Greenwald recommends First Cal Scranton

Listing Agent

Roger and his mortgage company did a superior job in getting the deal done. Roger was representing the buyer for a short sale transaction in San Diego. The short sale lender gave us very very short time frames to get the transaction funded and recorded. Roger took a very pro-active position. Also, Roger was in constant contact with all involved. When we faced a hurdle near the finish line, Roger was very instructive and helpful so that we both the seller and the buyer were in a win-win situation to close the transaction on time.

Homeowner

"On behalf of Roger Kube and associates, I would like to recommend Roger and his staff. Roger did exactly what he said he would do. From the first phone call to the last e-mail he was always on time and his staff was extremely courteous and helpful. I was new to this process but Roger walked me through with no problems. He closed when he said he would and the estimation cost were actually a bit lower! Roger and his staff are a company of his word which in today's society is greatly appriciated. I cannot recommend a person higher! Sincerely, Tom Long, Crowley Lake Calif "

I cannot say enough good things about Jesse Tenenbaum and his team; calls were returned promptly, questions thoroughly answered, and issues quickly resolved. Both Jesse and the Tenenbaum team bent over backwards to make this refi as easy as possible and completed in the shortest amount of time. From start to finish, my refi was painless and happened remarkably fast. As a comparison, I had started a refi with my old mortgage company and after two months I hadn’t heard anything and that’s when I contacted Jesse as a referral from another satisfied customer. Jesse took action quickly and got my family the lowest possible rate and closed my refi in short order. Oddly enough, two weeks after closing my refi with Jesse and his team, I was contacted by my old mortgage company to let me know that they would be ready to close in two weeks.
I want to thank Jesse and his fabulous team for doing for me and my family what my old mortgage company was incapable of doing.
Thanks, Jesse and the Tenenbaum Team!

Roger explains everything very thoroughly and makes you feel like you're his only client. Roger guided me through my refinance and he always had time for my questions and figuratively held my hand through the whole process. I felt like I could trust Roger to get me the best rate possible, and he did. I highly recommend Roger and I'm trying to get my friends to refinance their houses just so they have the pleasure of working with Roger Kube.

Support Engineer

Jesse and his team did a great job in providing me with a less than 30 day close. If it wasn't for the fact they could close in less than 30 days, I wouldn't have got my offer accepted. He was very patient & positive while I search for a house and very knowledgeable, responsive and honest in answering all my questions. They stepped me all the way through the process making sure to follow up when I forgot something and making it as painless as financing a house can be. I would recommend Jesse to all my friends and family.
