Katrina Sigler, she will continue getting 5 star ratings for the rest of her career. No question she made the loan process seamless. She was available to speak with directly always. Karina has excellent communication skills and thoroughly explained every detail as well as answered all of our questions. It was perfect. Katrina makes the world turn!

USMC Active Duty - 1st Time Home Buyer

★ ★ ★ ★ ★
As an Active Duty Marine of 16 years and moving here to California for the first time, I could not have asked for a better loan officer then Carter and his team. His professionalism, attention to detail along with his fantastic communication (phone, text, email) made this process and experience that much more easier.
As a 1st time home buyer using a VA loan I was originally set to go with NFCU but quickly realized that in order to meet my expectations and timeline Carter would be the right person for this job.
Both my wife and I are so grateful we chose Carter as he provided excellent and thorough feedback every step of way along with detailed requirements he needed from me. He was always available at all times of the day to answer any questions or concerns I may have had and provided updates along the way. Carter and Grant facilitated the close of escrow with keys in hand to our home in about 18 days.
I highly recommend Carter and his team and would refer other potential home buyers (Military or Civilian) to him without any hesitation. The service that will be provided is 2nd to none.
Thank you Carter, Grant and the rest of the APM Mortgage team for being part of our 1st home buying experience.

Carter's the man...and his team is the team. I use him for everything regarding real estate finance. He's thorough to the point of obsession, so every time I work with him I know absolutely nothing will get missed. He checks, then double-checks, triple-checks, and then goes back and checks his checks! Not only do I use him with my own real estate financial needs, but I also refer him to my clients (I'm also a part-time realtor) as well as my very best friends and family. Saying I trust him with my family's very financial livelihood would be an understatement. He just may be the single most responsible person for our great financial situation. I consider his recommendations gospel, and he hasn't failed me in the many years I have known him as a business associate and a friend. So yeah, I'll recommend this guy.

Carter is phenomenal at what he does but aside from just that, he is especially great at breaking down the process step-by-step. He is knowledgeable and as a Veteran myself, he made refinancing my home so much easier than I thought it’d be. His knowledge of VA loans and VA benefits in general is highly exceptional. I will be using him again.

The recent process to complete the refinancing of our home was made very easy with the tremendous help of Katrina Sigler. Katrina took special pains to ensure that each and every step was completed in an expeditious manner while at the same time ensuring the process was thorough. There were no "stones" left unturned left by her while going through the many steps involved. We are most thankful for the work she did during this project.

Carter is his team are the greatest, from the consistent Friday updates to answering every single call and text when I asked questions.my husband and I are first time homeowners, so we had minimal knowledge of the loan process and Carter and his team would go out of his way to provide me with information about the process to ensure I was 100% in the loop. Customer service, responsive to emails, calls and texts and an all around great guy! I recommend him to anyone. Looking forward to refinancing.

Carter and his team are knowledgeable, honest, responsive, and helpful. I have had a couple of homes financed and refinanced over the years and carter and his team are first-rate. Don’t look anywhere else for a mortgage loan or to refinance your current property. Truly the best! Thanks again for the terrific refi!

Carter did an outstanding job working to refinance our home. My wife and I have worked with Carter on many loans in the past as we have bought and sold our properties. Carter is always professional and courteous. He works very hard to ensure things are done properly at every stage of the process. Carter is always available by phone or email to answer questions. He enjoys his craft and it shows. We look forward to working with Carter for many years to come!

My husband and I had a wonderful experience working with Carter and his team in refinancing our home mortgage. From beginning to end, they were informative and extremely thorough in our financial needs, thus making sure we got the best interest rate possible. I honestly wished we worked with Carter when we initially purchased our home. We highly recommend Carter to anyone who is looking into buying a home or refinancing.

If you have any mortgage needs definitely the man to demand. Thank you Doug for being so amazing and caring to do right by us=)

Carter and his team are amazing! We were first time home buyers. He explained every step of the way, provided easy to understand charts, helped us reduce our costs, and helped us stay within budget for the home we picked. He was prompt, answered all our questions and made the entire process a positive experience. We couldn't have done it without him on our team!

Doug made the entire process as easy as possible for us! He communicated with us every step of the way, taking extra time to explain our options. He was able to close our loan in the shortened time-frame that the seller requested, and we felt confident that he was looking out for our best interest. We will highly recommend Doug to anyone we know who is looking to purchase a home.

Kelly has done a couple of loans for clients now and she is fantastic. It is hard to find someone in lending that you can really count on to give you the truth as well as perform. She seems to always be available; I'm not even sure she sleeps ;)

William Martin recommends Carter Alexander Short

Home Buyer and Veteran

★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Carter and his team are awesome! Every instruction and request were perfectly articulated so that I always knew exactly what was needed and when. Mine is a VA secured loan and the mountain of paperwork required by VA can be pretty intimidating. It can become difficult keeping track of what you've already sent and what is still outstanding, not when working with Carter. Every day I got an email from Grant, a valued member of the team, with a list of items still needed and additional requirements as they became known. It only took 20 days from contract to close, that is amazing for a VA loan. I don't think these guys sleep much during the week, I sent emails sometimes after 10:00 pm and got responses almost immediately. When they say they are there for you they mean it. I would and will recommend Carter to anyone I know who is looking to buy or refinance and if Grant moves up into his position someday, I will give him my recommendation too. Thanks Carter and crew for making this process bearable.

Never in my 15 year career have I been so impressed with a lender, as I am with Kelly. She went FAR out of her way to try to save a deal between my seller and her buyers.

She went so far as to work extensively with my seller to work around Fannie Mae guidelines, even though she was on the buyer side.

Ultimately, she wasn't able to save my particular situation, but she went to above and beyond for all concerned, was pleasant, knowledgeable and responsive to all throughout the process.

She has earned my business and I would not hesitate to recommend her.

I liked Carter from the first meeting. He came off knowledgeable and very transparent. He walked us through every step and I appreciated it. My anxiety never kicked up and I never questioned if he was in it for the money or if he genuinely cared. His office is also full of family pictures which (me being a mom) made me more comfortable. I’ll recommend him again and again

It's hard to find the words to explain how awesome Carter Short is!! We are so appreciative of him and all that he has done in helping us become home owners. The experience went smoothly, he explain the process and explained each step as we went thru the process!

But it didn't end there, years later... We decided to refinance and yes, it was Carter Short who helped us. Nothing changed in the manner in how he conduct business; honest, efficient, professional, patient, knowledgeable and the nicest person you will meet.

We are truly bless to have Carter Short to turn to, when making the biggest decision in our lives!
