New Location! - Chris Mason - Mortgage Broker - Elk Grove, California

A. K.

My wife and I were first time home buyers, and we were very glad that we got connected with Chris! He made the mortgage side of the process very smooth, and he was very clear in setting expectations ahead of time about what we would need to provide and by which time. He kept in touch through the whole process (including a house we eventually backed out of due to an issue found in inspections) and rolled with the punches like it was nothing out of the ordinary. Chris struck a good balance between explaining concepts simply enough that we could understand them and maintaining a solid and steady professionalism throughout our conversations.

Our final closing process had a 21 day window, which I'm told is quite faster than the norm, and everything came through with plenty of time to spare!

I found Chris through a friend's referral, and I'm so glad I had him for my first home buying experience. I was working with another lender previously and was unhappy about how complicated things were. From the get-go Chris was super transparent about everything: costs and the process, and he provided a customized Google Sheet of all the cost breakdowns that I used heavily. Pre-approval process was much easier and less stressful than with the previous lender, and during escrow he was really quick, responsive, and thorough. Honestly couldn't have asked for more. Grateful to have worked with him and I'll definitely recommend him in the future.

My experience with Chris Mason as our loan broker was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we met with him, Chris exhibited professionalism and expertise that put us at ease throughout the entire process.

Chris's approach was refreshingly straightforward; he cut through the BS and provided us with clear, concise information at every step. His transparency was commendable; there were no unexpected surprises during the closing process, which made the entire experience smooth and stress-free.

One of the standout qualities of working with Chris was his efficiency. Thanks to his diligent efforts and meticulous attention to detail, we were able to close our loan in an astonishingly short timeframe of around 20 days. Chris left no stone unturned in scrutinizing our financials, both before and after our offer, ensuring there were no last-minute hiccups during closing.

He was also incredibly responsive, promptly addressing any questions or concerns we had, as well as those from our realtor. This level of responsiveness instilled confidence in us throughout the process, knowing that Chris was always just a message or call away.

Despite shopping around with two other lenders, Chris's rates also stood out as the most competitive, further highlighting his dedication to providing the best possible outcome for his clients.

I wholeheartedly recommend Chris Mason to anyone in need of a loan broker. His professionalism, transparency, efficiency, and unbeatable rates make him a standout in his field.

Chris was extremely helpful throughout the entire homebuying process! He was always available to answer our questions and provide additional context, which was invaluable when navigating what can be an extremely stressful and high stakes time. Chris's timely responses, kind demeanor, and investment in getting us into our new house on time was unparalleled and I cannot recommend him enough!

I've had the privilege of working with Chris Mason in the past, and once again, he has left me thoroughly impressed with his outstanding service. Having experienced his professionalism before, I knew that I could trust Chris to navigate any challenges that might arise during the refi process.

This time around, we faced hurdles that required a seasoned professional, and Chris rose to the occasion with unparalleled expertise. From the need to re-assess the property's value to minor issues at the signing table, Chris demonstrated his diligence and problem-solving skills, ensuring that every obstacle was addressed promptly and effectively.

What sets Chris apart is not just his ability to handle challenges but also his consistent commitment to maintaining open and transparent communication. Throughout the entire process, he stayed connected, keeping me informed at every step. This level of communication not only eased any concerns I had but also reaffirmed my confidence in Chris's ability to manage the complexities of the refi process seamlessly.

I can attest to his unwavering dedication to his clients. His professionalism, attention to detail, and proactive approach make him a standout loan officer. It's refreshing to work with someone who consistently exceeds expectations, and I wholeheartedly recommend Chris to anyone in the market for a mortgage, considering refinancing, or seeking general education about the lending process.

It was a pleasure working with Chris as a first time homebuyer. Not only was he deeply knowledgeable about different lending products that we could use as a first time homebuyer, but was also extremely thorough, diligent and transparent during the entire process. His communication was top notch and he made sure we were kept in loop with everything going on as well as made sure to follow up diligently with documents to be returned to close escrow on time. Also his closing time was very very competitive and definitely gave us an edge over the competing offers. He was in fact able to beat his already challenging closing time by 5 days to make sure we get the property ahead of time with the locked rates.

I would like to add that, having shopped around a bit for best mortgage rates, we could confidently say that Chris was offering the best terms overall and goes above and beyond to get creative with financing.

Overall, Chris was exceptional and we would be using him for all our deals moving forward.

Absolutely amazing. Chris was very helpful and provided all the information we needed in a concise, easy-to-read manner. His spreadsheets are well made and it contained all the relevant numbers and calculations to help us make the best decisions. He was very communicative every step of the way. With his help, after we went into contract it only took about a week for our loan to be approved by the underwriter. Any time we needed to provide more documents it was simple to do. Highly recommended.

I've worked with quite a few mortgage lenders in the past and I must say Chris is the best. He is knowledgable, communicative, and reliable. We were able to close in just under 25 days (inclusive of a holiday weekend). I'd highly recommend Chris to those looking for a trust-worthy mortgage broker.
