Communication and experience, overall, from your entire team. Peggy's initial / upfront preparation work to help us know what our budget was, what range we should look at, and how to be mindful for and prepare for escalation... that was huge, and ultimately, what led to us being able to win in our bidding war (rather than enter bidding wars we'd never have had a chance in). Peggy and Darrin also let us know every step before it came up as they all came up, explained every moving part, laid out and helped us compared all options, and it really helped us with our decisions along the way. Peggy's work with us was particularly relevant when it came to decisions like buying points, as well as the interactions of down-payments, appraisal values, and how that would all change the numbers and options even after our bid was accepted. Should we ever do this again, we'll be going straight to Peggy and Darrin, no question of it. In the meantime, anyone I know looking to buy a home will be getting a strong, strong recommendation for Peggy and Darrin. I don't know if these go straight to corporate or not, but, if you get to read these - Thank you both so much!
Everything went so quick once we made an offer on a house. Getting all the paperwork and approval done beforehand was a huge help!
Peggy was so friendly and responsive!

Peggy didn't just find me financing, she listened to my story and helped me understand what I could and couldn't make happen, and helped to suit the financing to my exact needs. She was tireless in helping me to make this new step the right one for me.

Peggy listening to my goals and concerns, and making sure the mortgage product met my needs
Working with Peggy and her team was such a pleasure. I have no words for what Peggy has done to help us through this process. She is amazing and stuck with us for almost a year. We are so grateful for you Peggy!! I would recommend her to all my family and friends. With much appreciation, Joan, Hans, and Sean!!
Peggy continuously checked on me during the home buying process, and was always available for estimates and/or questions. I liked that her team was small, and I could always go directly to Peggy instead of dealing with a large team. Her years of experience were evident which helped me close quickly and efficiently. Most importantly, Peggy created a safe and comfortable environment which I appreciated as a first time homebuyer. Although we did a quick close, Peggy did not pressure me during my search. When I did find the one, I felt comfortable closing quickly.
Peggy is honest, intelligent, and fun to work with. She is dedicated to ensuring her clients are in the best possible setup, and is fast in providing assistance, and keeping everyone informed.
Very good at communicating what I needed to do or explaining different things I had questions about. Great service and would highly recommend to anyone

Great communication from the team we worked with. Peggy and Darrin took time to answer all our our questions, which were a lot considering we were first time homebuyers! Having our loan underwritten before we placed an offer on our home made the process go very quickly. We were even able to move our closing date up a week! A great team that I would recommend to anyone looking for a mortgage broker in the Seattle area!
Peggy and her associates are all super friendly and helpful when communicating important details.
Peggy was incredibly responsive to all of our questions and she did a great job of explaining every step of the process to us.

I really appreciated all of the clear, prompt and helpful communication from your staff, and all the assistance that your staff have provided in being able to make our first home purchase. The ability to work quickly to close in less than 4 weeks is something that we especially appreciate. All in all, we couldn't have asked for a better experience with a mortgage lender and will not hesitate to recommend you to friends or family in the future.
Peggy and her team worked seamlessly together. They were very quick to get the ball rolling. I highly recommend Peggy and her team. Buying a home was nearly stress free with their help.

We talked to a couple of lenders including Peggy, and decided to go with her based on our interaction on the phone and very competitive rates we were offered. Peggy and Darrin, both were extremely courteous and responsive during the whole closing process. We closed on time with no issues. Peggy is willing to go above and beyond as demonstrated by the fact that she drove a few hours to get our signatures because we were unable to e-sign due to some technical issues. Highly recommended!

Peggy and Darrin offer a breath of fresh air in the industry. Not only do they help you understand what is going on, but also they want what's best for YOU not just what's best for the bank's bottom line. It really shows in their customer service and it's one of the main reasons I chose to close with Peggy.

Peggy is always friendly and very helpful. If you don't understand something or are having trouble in some way she is very kind, patient and understanding and will take her time to explain things to help you better understand. We had a fantastic experience working with Peggy.
I trust peggy so much, I’ve bought two homes, sold one home, and have also refinanced my homes with her! Always a pleasant experience working with her and her team. They are accurate, quick and they get it done while looking out for you. They give me guidance every step of the way, making it so easy to buy and sell. I work with her exclusively!
What I like most about Peggy and her team is that they take care of you even after the original purchase. Knowing that she could save me money, she reached out to me to see if I'd like to look into refinancing. That is customer service after the fact in my opinion.

Even after both transactions closed, Peggy has been available to help with questions and continue her support. She clearly cares for her customers and wants to make sure the mortgage process is as pleasant as possible.
Peggy Kahler made purchasing a home an easy experience. Peggy is very well organized, constantly communicating with us and made sure we understood the process from beginning to end. We would highly recommend her to friends and family!
