  I’ve had the pleasure of working with Alex and his team, Eric and Silver, at Neighborhood Loans since 2016, and I can confidently say they are one of the best lending teams in the business. As a real estate broker, having a dependable lender is critical, and Alex and his team consistently deliver. They are incredibly responsive, highly knowledgeable, and always keep both myself and my clients well-informed throughout the entire process. Their communication and attention to detail help ensure every transaction moves smoothly from contract to closing. What truly sets them apart is their commitment to finding solutions and getting deals across the finish line, even when challenges arise. They go above and beyond for their clients, and it shows in every transaction we’ve worked on together. I highly recommend Alex Varela at Neighborhood Loans to anyone looking for a trusted, experienced, and results-driven lending team. I look forward to continuing to work with them for many years to come.

  I wish I wasn't having to leave a 1 star review but unfortunately I don't have a choice. I'm a Realtor and my clients were pre-approved by Jose Valenzuela, the entire process was such a nightmare. He gave my clients a pre-approval, we find a house, and about a week before closing he comes back saying under writing is asking for paperwork that my clients can't provide because the situation doesn't apply to them. The fact that Jose didn't catch the issue himself and that we got as far in the process as we did is ridiculous. The deal obviously falls through, my clients lose $750 on an appraisal for a home they can't buy. Some time goes by my clients give Jose another opportunity and he gets them a new pre-approval, we find another house and go under contract again. Well, never fails Jose input information incorrectly into my clients file which gave us a higher pre-approval than we should have had and now we have another contract we can't move forward with again. I guess on a positive note, at least this time the deal fell through 2 weeks before closing instead of 1. I highly recommended if you are considering Neighborhood Loans that you don't and find someone else.

  Great team, great experience! Alex has been superb to work with. Eric and Raylin (forgive me if I butchered the spelling) went above and beyond to make me feel welcomed!

  Alex is incredibly friendly and welcoming. We met to discuss social media, and he was so kind, open, and easy to talk to. He genuinely cares about his business and the people he works with, which made the meeting a great experience. Really appreciate how approachable and positive he is, highly recommend!
