I am truly committed to helping people reach their dreams of homeownership and derive great satisfaction from making each transaction go smoothly. With refinance transaction I will guide into the right direction with maximizing the use of your investment. With my knowledge and expertise, I look forward to providing the direction and information needed to help with all your home financing needs

Julio Valdez made our loan process run as smoothly as possible. Whatever turned up that required special attention, at every turn, Julio was on top of it before I knew what was happening. At each point, his attention to detail, knowledge all of the nuances in loans, financing, led to "problem solved."
Thanks, so much, Julio.

Julio is extremely knowledgeable, quick to respond to my questions, and got the job done quickly. There were zero delays and zero surprises during escrow and we were able to close on our house as scheduled. Having heard horror stories with many lenders, I was pleasantly surprised with my experience. Even after closing on the loan, he’s been answering my calls and messages without fail. Thanks so much, Julio!

Julio once again has proven to be so much more than a Loan Officer. I have worked with him my personal loans for over 10 years, and I can say with complete honestly that his expertise is only surpassed by him dedication to providing knowledgeable market information to help me determine the best product. This time it was a HELOC with HomeStreet Bank. Communication with HS was outstanding.

Again, thank you Julio for helping me once again! You are as good as it gets!

Mr. Julio Valdez is the most helpful and honest agent I have ever come across. I wish I had followed his advice last year. But he came up with another solution that met my requirements.

This is the 2nd or possibly 3rd deal we have done with Julio Valdez. I have nothing but GREAT things to say about him. He has always been very professional. He always answers his phone with any questions you may have, and he is a straight up honest gentleman. I give 6 out of 5 stars!
Thank You Julio for your great service once again.

Julio was very responsive to my questions, inquiries and needs. His assistant Keithleen is also very helpful and promptly communicates updates. I would have given them a 5 star if not for the super slow processing of our loan. It took about 6-8 weeks to process from start to finish. Hope Homestreet bank can improve on this process.
