David came recommended by our realtor who we asked for a local mortgage broker referral to help us with a mortgage on a second home. We were so happy with his professionalism and the seamless transaction that we also had him help us refinance our primary mortgage. He was incredibly attentive the whole time and despite some hiccups (not of his causing) he got us two great loans at great rates.
David did our first home purchase and was very informative and patient with explaining the details and process with us. Anytime I had questions he would respond back in either email or text. Very upfront and no bs!
When it came time to refinance to drop PMI and go conventional, I shopped around and dealt with other banks and people. He was again, upfront and spent the time talking to me explaining the process and very informative with no rush or intimidation on proceeding with him only.
He got us a great rate and made it smooth and easy. Would recommend him to family and friends instantly and trust him.

I worked with Dave on a refinance of my house. Dave was very knowledgeable and explained every step of the process. He was responsive and worked quickly and efficiently. He made the whole experience really easy. His office's document repository and DocuSigns really made it easy to complete the transaction for my wife and I. I would definitely recommend Dave to all my friends!
Working with David was a pleasure even though I never met him personally it felt like I did. Feel bad for calling him during the weekends and late night but he always answered. Transaction was smooth for the closing and all questions were answered, thanks David take care.!!
I have worked with David and his team on several loans. His responsiveness, professionalism and "can-do" attitude have made each transaction an absolute pleasure. Regardless of how straightforward or challenging a loan may be, David addresses obstacles quickly and manages your transaction with precise attention to detail. I have recommended him to friends who have also raved about their experiences. Do yourself a favor and call him first!

Dave made this whole process so easy and we couldn’t have asked for better service with our loan. I would recommend him for anyone buying a home or refinancing. Thanks so much Dave! We appreciate all you did to make this process stress free.

David Cordero is very professional and guided me through my home purchase. He answered all my questions and provided me with the best options. He was always available to me either by phone, text, or email. I would definitely recommend David to my friends and family. I will also definitely work with David on my next home purchase

David has helped our family with several mortgage related transactions, and he made every one of them pain-free. Two of which were very unique instances, but David and Alameda Mortgage Corp. worked diligently to assure that our family got what it needed. He is very knowledgeable, professional, and personable. I highly recommend David Cordero for those in search of a mortgage consultant.
I was recommended to David Cordero by Rocco Russo from Century 21Hilltop. Shortly after talking to David I felt completely comfortable with his knowledge and felt that he had my best interest in mind. This will be the third house that I have purchased and at least 3 refinances over the past 30 years. Never have I had a more simple, stressless and problem free experience financing anything. I am truly grateful to have met David and highly recommend his services.

Kaelen helped my wife and me purchase our house in Seattle. My Wife, myself, and my real estate agent were very impressed with Kaelen throughout the process. She was very communicative at every stage and incredibly responsive to all of our questions and requests. Kaelen and Alameda mortgage not only provided a very attractive rate, beating Wells Fargo, but also helped us close the loan within a matter of weeks, so that we could move into our house before my wife began her residency, something the competition could note do. We can't recommend Kaelen and Alameda Mortgage enough, and definitely intend to use them on future purchases or refinancings.
This is our second time working with David. First was to purchase our house and this time was to refi our house. In both experiences he exceeded expectations. He’s very experienced and helpful through the process. He is patient and very thorough so we never felt like we were blind sided with any part of our experience. I will in the future and have recommended him to anyone in the future that wants to buy a new home or refinance. Thank you for another smooth and great experience.

David is very informative. We learned so much from David, not just about buying our home, but also everything about the home buying process. He genuinely cares about his clients, regularly checking in with us to make sure all aspects of our escrow are going well and to offer his help every step of the way. His diligence made the home buying process smooth and efficient. We couldn't have closed escrow early without him!

We found David through a family member's recommendation. I'm so glad we chose to work with David to buy our first home. He was super patient and thoroughly answered my many, many questions about the home buying process, from getting pre-approved all the way to closing escrow. David is very prompt and responsive, always did everything efficiently. His great work really shined through because we were ahead of schedule for getting the loan approved and were able to close escrow early! I would highly recommend David to anyone, not just first time homebuyers. Thank you, David, for all your help in getting us our first home!

I have work with a few lenders in the pass no one has been as attentive, effective as David Cordero. From day one he was on it and updating me regularly on loan progress. Every timeI had any questions he was there to answer regardless of the time or day. I will definitely work with David again and have recommended him to friends and family.

KD Lending went on the roller coaster ride of buying a home in the Bay Area with us. They were there with every offer we made (6!) over the course of 10 months and guided us through all the next steps in the buying process. Deanna was responsive to all our questions (a lot of questions!) and proactive in contacting listing agents to help position us as the best non-cash buyers. In our offer we were positioned as a 21 day close, Deanna helped us get the job done in 17 days. Although it was not guaranteed to get it don’t sooner than 21 days, KD Lending pulled it off and was able to get us into our home sooner than expected. For all the attention to detail and responsiveness, I highly recommend this dynamic duo to help you get your deal done. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have tried to buy a house before and it was very difficult. we just purchase a new home and we were able to close in 3 weeks. David stayed on the process the whole time and made sure we did not skip a beat. I hope some other lenders will take lessons from David on how the process works! Than k you so much!

AMAZING loan officer. Kaelen did a great job on our new home purchase and refinance of our mortgage. She was prompt in responding to our calls and emails, even on her days off. She always kept us informed and has outstanding customer service skills. She was so helpful throughout the process. This is was our 5th transaction through Alameda Mortgage. We wouldn't hesitate to utilize her and Alameda Mortgage again. Kaelen and her team are amazing!!
Thank you again for all your help!

Kaelens my go to lender for all my transactions. Shes friendly, knowledge and demonstrates high level professionalism. While being patient with my clients she also educates and walks them through the entire process. She has my back playing middle man with all parties which isn’t even in her job discription! I would def recommend her to anyone looking for a lender to support them on their home purchase or an agent representing a buyer! :)

I met Kaelan at an open house- at that time I already have a lender which I’m working with. Chatting w\ her proved to be informative- she has a very warm personality and I trusted her immed. That day was the start of a good working relationship. Process went smoothly and fast , and before I knew it , we have the keys to the house. She made this process less stressful and I would definitely recommend her to every homebuyer.

Kaelen became our Go To Agent in 2017. My associate and I come from the Banking side. So finding the right agent wasn't easy. We didn't select Kaelen. She earned our business by performing. But most important, she earned our Trust. Realtors don't have time to babysit the loan process. We needed someone to take charge and just let us know when docs were ready.
Didn't want to hear the crying. Just see the baby.
In short, Kaelen cares about Relationships.
