George did a fantastic job with a very difficult and complicated transaction that was drawn out by uncooperative sellers with representation (the seller's agent and attorneys) that bordered on sheer incompetence. George dealt with them in a professional manner, and this deal closed after nearly 6 months. We couldn't have made this deal work without him!
George is the best. If you are NOT using George, you are doing yourself a disservice!

George and his team were absolutely fantastic! His honesty and integrity really showed through when we would endure any hang ups on our end. No matter the cause he made things happen and found the right loan for us. George was really great about sticking to our budget and staying in the numbers that worked great for us. Great guy. Great team. We would recommend him to anyone who is looking to buy a home with an honest lender!

I highly recommend George Erbele at FirstCal. I connected with him at the very beginning of my search for a place and was blessed to work with he and his team when I purchased my first home. George was always there, easy to reach and always quick to respond. He is a very professional, helpful, informative,patient man whom is extremely knowledgeable in his field and was so very awesome through out the entire process! He explained everything that I wasn't familiar with (which was quite a bit) and made the entire process enjoyable and exciting! It was truly a pleasure to work with him. I would highly recommend working with George and will be using his services for all future mortgage needs.

George was very informative, helpful and kept me updated throughout my re-finance. My son also had George do his re-finance too and everything went smooth with him which made me comfortable to have him work with me. He made sure I understood what was happening when things started to move along...the re-finance went by so quick. I am very happy the way it turned out.
The office staff was courteous also.

Our experience with George Erbele was Great! I wish I had met him sooner. He was very helpful and kept us in the loop every step of the way. I doubt you can find a better person to help you with your mortgage needs. Not only is he professional and knowledgeable, he cares about doing the best for you that he can. He's worth the phone call if you need his services.

George made our home buying experience so smooth and painless. He helped us understand all the documentation and answered questions immediately. His support staff was equally as accommodating and resourceful. We have never felt so welcome in an office before and George made us feel like we were important and not just any other client.
We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a friendly, knowledgeable, and thorough mortgage lender.
