Mortgage Loans Northwest, a Premier Mortgage Resources Company, NMLS #1169 Se Hawthorne Blvd, Portland

Darren and I have worked together on several transactions. I consider Darren part of my team and I know that when I recommend him to a client, he will always go above and beyond for them. In this competitive market, my buyers are almost always competing against multiple offers and against very strong candidates. Darren will always take the time to personally connect with the sellers agent once an offer has been submitted, a huge differentiator when it comes time for offer review. I highly recommend Darren!

Darren has been working with my husband and me to refinance our home so we can lower our mortgage. He gave us great advice, which we're following, and he's been patient while we've been working on all the steps. He knows the mortgage business, and takes care to help those of us who glaze over when we talk about finances. His specialty is first-time buyers, but he works hard to help everyone who contacts him. Even if you're a five-time buyer (like me and my husband), give Darren a call!

I am a first-time home buyer. Darren made the mortgage lending process and breeze. He was always very calm and knowledgeable and was able to work with me throughout the process to find a mortgage that fit my needs. What I expected to be a difficult and arduous process ended up being simple and straight forward. I would definitely work with Darren again if the need arose.

While I haven't used Darren for a mortgage yet, I know his professionalism and willingness to educate his clients is second-to-none. He puts on first-time home buyer's classes and is very knowledgeable with all mortgage options. Definitely give Darren a call when you are in the market for a residential mortgage.

We just closed on our home two days ago and couldn't be happier. Darren was so easy to work with and was always available to answer questions as we went through the process. We had heard horror stories about how difficult the mortgage process had become over the last ten years, but working with Darren at Premier Mortgage Resources was a breeze. I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a home in the Portland area!

Darren was a pleasure to work with. My fiance and I were doing very preliminary research and didn't yet know anything about buying our first home so we made a quick appointment and stopped in Darren's office with expectations of walking out disappointed. Little did we know that we would be living in our dream home less than 2 months later. The process was unexpectedly easy and fluid. We learned a lot during the home buying process and we are happy with our decision to go through Darren for our home loan.

Darren was our loan officer. He made the process very easy. His attention to detail made our loan go through without a glitch. Darren and his staff were always available when I had any questions and worked well within our (my wife and I) schedule. Darren spoke with the sellers agent and because of that call...they chose to accept our bid. If there were more than 5 stars possible, I would giv'em to Darren. He is a mortgage Rock Star!

As first time home buyers, we were lucky to work with a professional like Darren. As new comers to Portland, we knew little about the whole home buying process. Initially, we started working with another lender, which left us feeling frustrated about the whole process due to lack of informative communication. In our first meeting with Darren, he took the time to explain us the whole process in detail, answering every single question we had. He was always very responsive and he was always there to answer any questions we had (even when he was on vacation). He informed us immediately about any unexpected changes, and he diligently worked to make our home buying dream come true. We highly recommend Darren.

Let me start out by saying my wife and I bought our house 2 ½ years ago, and I’m finally getting around to writing this review. Better late than never. Our experience with Darren and Samantha was absolutely amazing. My wife and I started looking for our first home before we got pre approved, even though I knew it was a bad idea… and sure enough it was. We started looking at homes in the $250,000 range and found out from Darren we were only approved for $180,000. We we're devastated to say the least. We left thinking we'd never find a home that we really loved in that price range and in an area we wanted to live. Darren emailed me the very next day giving me options on how we could raise our approval. We did exactly what he recommended and because of him, not more than 3 weeks later we found and bought our first house that we absolutely love!! Darren was so incredibly helpful and patient throughout the entire process. He's just an incredibly nice and very professional guy. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone!

We have worked with Darren on three mortgages. Two new purchases and one refinance. Each time I was more than happy with our service, the outcome and how hard he worked to get us the best loan for our circumstance. Working with Darren and Samantha was like chatting over the fence to our neighbors that were helping us out.
