Why These Seattle Borrowers Are Glad They Chose Us
“He went the extra mile”
Jim Hoge was highly recommended by a friend and he was very timely getting back to us. He went the extra mile to outbid a competitor and made us very comfortable and valued as customers. There were some complications in the last few days that delayed closing, but they were promptly rectified with Jim’s help.
It was an overall positive experience….not what you can usually say about mortgage negotiations these days. I would definitely recommend his team to a friend.

“I truly cannot say enough great things about Jim”
Jim Hoge and The Seattle Mortgage Planners Team were, hands down, the best part of our real estate experience. We were first-time homebuyers who knew NOTHING about buying a home. Jim walked us through every question we had, in detail. He was always courteous and friendly through our entire nightmarish process (we purchsed a short sale home and it ended up taking us 3 times to close) If it wasn’t for Jim’s professionalism and knowledge of the industry, we would have been doomed and still apartment living.
I truly cannot say enough great things about Jim. If you are a first-time homebuyer, looking for an FHA loan, or even a conventional one…Jim is your man!

“WOW, is really all I can say”
WOW, is really all I can say. A ‘we can do it’ attitude, ‘let’s figure out how’, and ‘lets get it done’, were just a few ways to describe my experience with Jim. There were a number of “odd” and potentially discouraging factors in my loan situation (I’m married to a Canadian, I already own investment real estate, I wanted to close on a VERY specific day, there was misinformation on my credit report that needed to be removed) and Jim still managed to get my loan funded and closed within 15 days.
I’ve been in the property management business for 11 years and I am rarely impressed, Jim Hoge has earned both personal and professional respect from me. I would recommend him, hands down. He is focused, organized, kind and willing to do the work necessary to see things get done right. Jim is trustworthy and a blessing to anyone needing mortgage related services.
With great joy,

We just refinanced our jumbo mortgage with Jim, and are so pleased with our experience. We got a great rate, and Jim was very helpful through the whole process. He was supportive and thorough in answering my many questions, and I was impressed with how smoothly it all went. I’m glad we found Jim, and definitely recommend him.

“A pleasure to work with.”
Even in this difficult environment, Jim was able to make my loan work where others could not. He was was also able to obtain the best possible rate for my refinance. Overall, very professional and a pleasure to work with.

“Looking out for our best interests!”
In an industry where integrity is difficult to find these days, Jim Hoge stands out like a beacon. Besides being the nicest guy you’ll ever meet, he is extremely professional, prompt and thorough. He kept searching for the best possible rate right up until the last minute – which we appreciated very much as it saved us a lot more money than the first rate we were looking at. His perseverance was impressive and we truly felt that Jim was looking out for our best interests. Thanks Jim!

“. . . So we came back for a second!”
It was quick and easy the first time, so we came back for a second. It was also really nice having a notary come to us with the docs to sign. It was a great experience overall!

“. . . The fees were just as he stated up front.”
Jim Hoge did an excellent job for us. Very honest, hardworking and actual fees were just as he stated up front. We ran into some rough spots with the lender but Jim was persistent and saw that the loan went through. Would recommend to friends or family in the future.
