Rich was one of four Loan Officers that we talked to after the seller made a 3.5 week close date a contingency. Every other Loan Officer had a reason why the seller's date couldn't work. Rich told us he couldn't guarantee a short close, but he would do his best to accommodate the sellers contingency. The next few weeks went by in a flurry of phone calls, documentation, and white glove treatment from Rich. In the end, we met the seller's contingency, with an APR that was super competitive and an on time close with no hidden surprises. I cannot begin to tell you how much I appreciate Rich's customer dedication, his clear explanations, and the effectiveness of his back office team. If you need a great Loan Officer - call Rich Hallman.

Richard Hallman was able to do what no other lender would, he was able to get us approved and closed in less than 4 weeks. The seller needed to be out by May 6th and he helped us do just that. He did it in a way that made everyone feel comfortable. Should anyone needs a true professional loan officer talk to Richard.

Rich is the best person to work with. I contacted Rich when we wanted to get pre approved to buy a house and he worked quickly and got it done in a day. Throughout the whole process he was very communicative and helpful with all the processes and questions we had during our home buying experience. Overall he made everything easy for us and i would highly recommend him

In working with Rich Hallman, of HomeStreet Bank, to obtain a home mortgage, I found the experience of purchasing a home to be as pleasant and worry free as opening a savings account. Rich's knowledge, experience, and advice about the best financing options for me in my financial position, were top rate. Rich, with dedication and determination, worked with me around my busy schedule to help me complete my home purchase. From pre-approval to closing, Rich kept the process on track; and, kept me informed with up to the minute details on the progress without delay. I highly recommend Rich Hallman and the services of HomeStreet Bank to anyone shopping for a home mortgage. I don't feel as though Rich would have proceeded in any differently, or, worked any harder to close a loan, even if he were working on his own purchase.

Rich is professional and truly goes above and beyond to assist in getting the best interest rate, as well as following through to the end answering questions and helping with the process. He is quick to respond to any questions and concerns and makes it all go smoothly. I have worked with him on a mortgage and refinance and he has been great! I've also reached out to him in the past with mortgage questions and he has helped me figure out how to manage these situations and given me good guidance. I so enjoy working with Rich and will continue to use him for future mortgage assistance.

Rich put my VA mortgage through in ten days which is hard to do with a VA. He also helped me with other things like the mover so i could have it done quickly.

Rich did an awesome job. He managed to jump through all of the hoops necessary to close in 21 days. This was a VA loan and a property that provided several challenges. I am happy to recommend him to anyone in need of a lender with professionalism and integrity.

I highly recommend Rich Hallman! In a fast paced market it is essential to have a lender that thinks a couple steps ahead, communicates effectively and matches the current pace of the market. Rich did all of those things and was professional and genuine to my client. I am looking forward to having Rich assist more of my clients with their home loans and achieving their dreams!

I highly recommend working with Homestreet Bank, in particular Rich Hallman. Over the 15 years I have chosen to work with Rich on three different loans. Rich always responds quickly. All three separate transactions were processed quickly and went very smooth. Thank you Rich!

I highly recommend Rich Hallman from Home Street bank.
We worked on a tricky transaction together and he was always available for myself and my clients!
He answered near to every time I called and if he didn't have the information he got it to me immediately, exactly as he said that he would. He is also kind and a great listener.
Some words that I would used regarding Rich Hallman are Experienced, Informed, Knowledgeable, Reliable and Trustworthy. I am absolutely comfortable recommending Rich for your financial transactions!

My wife and I have known Rich Hallman many years through our experience in the real estate industry and recently had a chance to utilize his expertise in securing a cash out refinance loan. Our experience was great and we could not be more grateful! Previous experiences with other lenders in the past have sometimes been a huge dissapointment. Not the case with Rich. He was very prompt in communications, and never made any promises that he could not keep. He did a great job! We will recommend him to everyone we know.

Rich did a great job in getting us financed for our dream home. He made it a painless process and kept us informed on a regular basis on how things were progressing. Rich was always available for any questions we had along the way. If we ever need to finance a house again he will be the first call I'd make.

I cannot reccomend Rich highly enough!!! AWESOME to work with, we had some hoops to jump through and I can honestly say for being kind of a stressful situation with the hoops my husband and I had to go through because of a home we had to walk away from some years ago Rich made the process easy, and stress free , we cannot thank Rich and his company enough for making our dream finally come true and able to buy our home that we have been renting, I need more cards so I can be sure to hand them to anyone and everyone I hear that is looking to finally be home buyers💜

I have been a Real Estate Broker for 32 years and have worked with Rich Hallman for over 18 of those years. He has helped me establish a great business with my clients by providing outstanding service for their mortgages. Buying a house is stressful without the right lender. My clients come to me time and time again to buy homes and if they have used Rich on their first loan they ask to use him again too. That says something right there that they remember and enjoyed the process.

Rich is knowledgeable and kind. When it comes to getting a home loan kindness is key. Their are a lot of different loans out there and he can loan on almost any type of home. It takes kindness to explain them, the process and help you through the maze to closing.

My husband Dan and I have use him for our personal mortgages for years now. He goes the extra mile to make the process smooth and we appreciate his attention to the details to our transactions. He has our highest recommendation!
Sincerely, Brenda Haug
