Testimonials
The word that comes to mind when I think of Karen Pryor is “professional.” She obviously knows her business, has taken the time to understand our family’s short- and long-term needs, and clearly cares about us on a personal level. We have worked with Karen on three different occasions over the past five years, and each transaction has been extremely painless due to her diligence, customer service orientation, and knowledge of the market. She definitely is at the top of her profession. Mitch & Sandra S., Thousand Oaks, CAKaren has made the entire process seem easy. She has helped me obtain two loans and refinance a house. She is always highly professional, pays incredible attention to detail and is accurate and reliable. I can't recommend her highly enough. Lori A., Manhattan Beach CA
For over twenty years, Karen has been a colleague and friend. When she started her own business, it was only natural that she should be the person that I turned to for my personal financing. Her knowledge of and experience in the real estate and housing development industries has made her and her staff the ideal source. She has developed a firm that combines personal service with quick, efficient lending practices. My last loan was recorded within thirty days of my having called her. She is outstanding in her field and I shall continue to ensure that she handles my real estate financing business. Larry S., Torrance, CA When it comes to buying a house or re-financing, the more times you can say to yourself, "Well, that's one less thing to have to worry about.", the better your peace of mind will be. Karen made the biggest headache of all, financing, one less thing to have to worry about. She was efficient, thorough and, most importantly to me, always easily accessible. Tom, Barbara and Gabriel D., Los Angeles, CA Karen has completed over 3 million dollars in real estate loans for me over the past 4 years. She has handled both initial financing as well as refinancing existing loans. After every transaction, I have remarked how easy Karen made the process for me, because of her high level of professionalism, service and commitment. I consistently use Karen because she has always gone the extra mile for me - finding the best rates and loan packages, as well as being consistently available by email or phone. Even though I live over 100 miles from her office, she has been able to handle the details of these transactions effortlessly and as if I was next door. As always, "thanks Karen!" I am looking forward to our next transaction together. Steve S., San Diego, CA I have known Karen for five years and have admired the job she does with her customers. When I bought my home last July, I called Karen to do my home loan. Even though she works in Southern CA and I live in Northern CA, the loan went smoothly and with no hassle on my part. She walked me through the whole process and literally took care of everything. I have also referred four other friends to Karen and they were so happy about the way they were taken care of. I will continue to refer and recommend her services to anyone looking for a home loan. Karen, thank you for a job well done! Carolyn P., Sacramento, CA Working with Karen Pryor has always been a pleasure. She has helped us attain 4 loans since 1997. Karen has always been efficient and professional in our dealings with her. Shelley C., Oxnard, CA Being a first time homebuyer can be pretty overwhelming. I looked into a couple of other lending companies and found them to be less than accomodating. Fortunately, I was referred to Karen at Pacific West Lending through a friend at work. I was approved with the best rate possible and everything was taken care of by Karen and her expert staff. They had all the answers to my questions and were able to take care of most everything by email so I wasn't inconvenienced by having to come into the office. I never had to worry about a thing. I won't hesitate to use Karen and Pacific West Lending for my next home purchase. Sue L., Whittier, CA My wife and I are in the process of completing our third transaction with Karen, who was referred to us by our banker. Due to our complicated income structure, Karen has been able to obtain loans for us without any income documentation. The application was taken by phone then sent by email for digital signature - wow! - then the loan documents were brought to our home so that we weren't inconvenienced. We would happily refer Karen to anyone needing a loan on a high-end property. Fred E., Bel Air, CA |
