Mike Pandazos Mortgage Team at Golden Coast Finance Crescenta Montrose

My husband and I had the opportunity to work with Mike, Sarmen, and the Golden Coast group. From the moment I spoke with Mike (We had spoken with 3 other lenders of different firms), I knew I was never going to look further. Mike’s speaking habits are very friendly and warm when on the phone. I felt relaxed and the urge to apply immediately. Our pre-approval was given in a span of 24 hours. Once we found the house we liked, we asked for more money and was approved immediately. The application process was easy, taking me 30 minutes or less. I had access to Sarmen, my assigned lending professional, who answered all questions and concerns 24/7, and even holidays. This is our first home, and we were in awe how the process went so smoothly, comparing it to some horrible home-buying stories (especially in today’s market). We closed in less than a month- 21 days. We were going to get a home but ended up with a dream home, because we had access to needed funds. If you want a lender who is open, well informed and will support you through the whole process, trust me on this. Make sure you have all your finances in place, stay positive, be open to the lenders, and you will have no regrets. We are so happy and looking forward to buying more homes and sending family and friends to this awesome group of lenders who went above and beyond. Thank you, Golden Coast you truly lived up to your name of “Golden.” We are very lucky to have worked with you.

I would totally recommend Mike for mortgage financing or refinancing. He has the most efficient team. I have done refinancing twice with Mike and one time for getting the loan for my mortgage. Each time, they complete the financing process in less than a month. When I bought my current property, I had another mortgage company helped me at the beginning, a week or two later, nothing has happened. After I switched to Mike, Mike and his team got it done for me within the limited time left. I really appreciate the great assistance and help from Mike and his team.

I was referred to Mike and his team at Golden Coast by a realtor. Initially I was just going to use him as a back-up plan because I had a lender that had done well for me in the past and I liked working with. However, Mike worked very hard at getting me qualified for a somewhat tricky loan which, in the end, my other lender wasn't able to pull off. In fact he was able to help us work within a very tight timeframe on our escrow. On top of that Mike was so attentive, friendly and easy to work with. His team is really nice too. At one point I told him he needed to work less, because he was responding to my emails at all hours of the day and on weekends. Mike is really the best I've worked with, and he's certainly the first person I'll contact if I need financing in the future.

Mike and his entire team were excellent! I can not thank them enough for making my loan process so fast and smooth. They were professional, helpful, and always readily available. This made the whole process of buying my first home so much easier for both my fiancé and I. Thank you so much Mike and team!

I would like to start out and say this has been the easiest loan process I have ever done. Mike and his team are amazing and they know exactly what they are doing. They were on top of my loan from the beginning of the process. Mike and his team were super responsible and made sure my loan closed on time. I would recommend Mike and his team for your next lenders.

I've been using Mike for 10+ Years & never has he disappointed. Whether it would be for myself on a refinance or purchase or referring him to my Clients who are in the market to purchase, Mike stays on top of the process from beginning to end, is responsive & makes sure he gets the best rates at all times! He is very competitive and is highly recommended. I will be using Mike's services for as long as I'm Selling LA or purchasing my own properties. Keep it up Mike!

I was referred to Mike by a family member and it was the best experience I could have hoped for. He was so thorough with his explanations and knowledge, I immediately felt at ease. Responded to all my questions and concerns timely and made me feel comfortable with the entire process of buying a home. It was an absolute pleasure to work with him and will be telling everyone I know to contact her. Great team, well done. Thank you

Mike and I have worked together a few times and every time has been an enjoyable experience. From purchasing to my recent refi, him and his company have been professional and straightforward. I have referred Mike to a couple of people in the past and they have also had great experiences. I highly recommend using Golden Coast Finance.

Mike and his team at Golden Coast Finance were terrific to work with. We are first-time home buyers, and Mike and Oscar walked us through the entire process and were available whenever we needed them. They worked with us to do a 17-day escrow, and although it was stressful at times, Mike and his team successfully pulled it off for us and made sure the process went as smooth as possible. I would definitely recommend Gold Coast Finance and we will use them again in the future on our next home.

I am very pleased that I got to work with Golden Coast Finance (Arthur and Marylin). Due to my low credit score I didn’t think I could get approved for a loan and everyone would tell me there’s not a chance I would get approved and even if I did I would have a high APR. I am very happy that I met these people who not only helped get my application approved but also offered a low APR. They were able to get my loan ready within 20 days and I was able to get a property with only 3% down payment. Whenever I had an issue regarding escrow they were able to solve my problems ASAP. I am very happy that my first time buying experience was with them. I am looking forward to working with them in the future. Thank you so much for your exceptional customer service.
