Testimonials

"When my clients are looking for names of lenders, I refer them strictly to Jeff. I find it unnecessary to give them more than one lender's name simply because he has closed every loan I have ever given to him, secures the best possible interest rate, and no matter what the loan amount may be, provides exceptional service day in and day out. He is truly an integral part of my team."

Don’t even think abouttackling the demanding Pacific Northwest housing market without the team of Schmal/Tisdale. We know Real Estate."

"Rodney, my recommendation would be that we Jeff Tisdale.  Jeff is a Senior Loan Officer who has closed 100% of the loans he has originated since he's been in the business.  It's an impressive record, but Jeff has earned it the hard way by sweating bullets for his Customer.  He's also a straight shooter who will tell you exactly what you need to know.  He's absolutely "Blue Ribbon".

“Last May, I had a transaction in which I was the listing agent, and you were the lender for the buyers.  I was very impressed with your pro-active style of doing business.  I have only been in the real estate business for two years, but I have had enough experience with the lenders during that time to appreciate how you work.  I was also grateful that you had sent a follow-up letter to my sellers after the transaction had closed.”

“We wanted to express our appreciation for the excellent service and expertise you have provided our clients and ourselves.
 
One of the most important premises we have operated under is “NO SURPRISES”.  You have been an important and extremely effective part of our achieving that goal for our clients.  You became that part of our team that we knew we could always rely on.  This significantly reduced the stress factor related to Real Estate transactions.
 
As we leave Washington, there are some individuals we will always remember that not only assisted us in our success in becoming two of the top-producing Realtors in the East Bellevue office of John L. Scott but also became our friend.  You are at the top of that list.
 
We wish you and your family all the best in the future, and thank you for all your hard work on behalf of our clients (and ultimately us!!!)”

“Frustrated with the …process, I turned to Jeff Tisdale.  Jeff gave me a written good faith estimate that afternoon showing total costs substantially lower than…and a closing date within a few weeks.  Working with Jeff was a breeze.  He completed most of the forms and left us the simple task of verifying and signing.  Jeff kept us informed of rate activity and our loan status.  To no surprise, the loan closed without a hitch in the time frame we expected…I expect personalized service, responsive processing time frames and certainty of closure.  For these reasons, I recommend Jeff without reservations.  Jeff is very impressive – knowledgeable, efficient, informative, and continually obtains the best rates and fees.  I trust my future loans and my clients to Jeff.”

“Jeff is the best in the business.  He definitely is the most qualified and conscious loan officer I have had the pleasure of working with and referring clients.  Jeff cares about the people he works with because he listens first, then finds the best programs suited for their needs.  If a home buyer wants a loan Jeff will find a way to get them their home, guaranteed.”

“I wanted to drop you a note and express our sincere thanks for all the creative work and persistence effort you’ve put into securing our loan.  Many others would have quit stating the obstacles were too large and too many, but that’s what separates the winners and the losers in this life (creativity and persistence) you’ve got them both…Our goal is to keep this house 5 years complete the upgrades and sell to move into another house, at that point we will be in need of your services again.”

We were VERY pleased with the service we received from Jeff - from our initial meeting where he explained elements of the good faith estimates which were still puzzling to me up through closing he was not only very responsive to our questions and requests (by e-mail and phone) but also pro-active in checking in with us and our real estate agent as to whether there was anything he could do to help.
