Customer Reviews

Esther is amazing! So grateful for her and her team. We were introduced to each other from a mutual friend, and Esther became an integral part of helping our family transition across the country. With interest rates being high and the housing market being a little crazy, we needed a lender who is willing to think outside the box and get us the best possible scenario for our family. Esther did exactly that. She’s friendly, knowledgeable, and very accessible. Anytime I had a call question issue, she got back to me with an answer right away. She played out multiple scenarios and really got us the best mortgage rate possible by combining different programs. I highly recommend using Esther for any mortgage lending. She will fight for you, she will work for you, she will get you the best deal and the best payment that’s possible. We are so pleased with our experience and our purchase, and our grateful to have a great team that helped make this transition smooth. I will gladly recommend Esther to all my friends and family. She is the best!

I am certain that without Esther being astute regarding every step of this reverse mortgage process at all times, it would have never happened. Esther was very diligent through this intricate process in helping me reach the finish line. Esther was pleasant to work with, never being judgemental about my situation, demonstrating that she really cared. If you are considering a reverse mortgage, I highly recommend you contact Esther!

Greg and Esther were an amazing team and so easy to work with. Esther had her work cut out for her with our non conventional loan. My husband is self employed so it took several extra steps to make this happen.
We’re so grateful for this team and their effort in helping us buy our first home.

I had the pleasure of working with Esther Buede at Choice Home Mortgage on a recent Chenoa Down Payment Assistance purchase. Esther is phenomenal to work with, and if you haven’t already, make sure to check out her library of fun and informative videos.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Esther Buede to secure a home loan for our clients Jerry and Paula and I cannot express enough how impressed I was with the level of service and experience she provided throughout the entire process. She exhibited professionalism and commitment that really put the clients at ease. She took the time to thoroughly explain the loan process to them that helped them understand terms, rates and potential outcomes. She worked together with me and all the members of the team that were there to help the clients purchase their home! One of her standout qualities of Esther is her exceptional communication skills. She was there to answer everyone’s questions promptly, returning calls and emails. Even during the busy times she made us feel like we were priority and greatly reduced the stress that comes with helping clients buy a home. Her proactive approach and clear transparent communication instilled a sense of trust and reliability that is essential when navigating the complexities of mortgage lending. I highly recommend Esther when it comes to finding a loan officer. She is a true asset to her field!

Oh my gosh, I am thrilled to tell you about our recent home buying experience! We are over the moon with excitement and it's all thanks to our incredible realtor, Greg Toussieng, and loan officer, Esther Buede. These two are simply amazing!

I cannot express enough how impressed we were with their dedication to getting us into our dream home in El Cajon. They truly went above and beyond for us. Can you believe they drove all the way from Orange County multiple times just to ensure everything was perfect for us? We felt like they were right there with us every step of the way.

We were referred to them by a close friend who couldn't stop raving about them and now we know why! Greg negotiated a fantastic price for our property, and Esther was an absolute lifesaver when it came to all the loan documentation. We honestly couldn't have done it without her.

But it's not just their expertise that sets them apart - they are both incredibly friendly and down-to-earth. They made the entire process so enjoyable and stress-free. They were always available to answer any questions we had, whether it was a call, text, or email.

They were an answer to my prayers, and thanks to their help, I am now able to live more comfortably and stay in my home for the remainder of my life. From the very first time I contacted them, they provided excellent service and were a true blessing.

Even when our first attempt to secure a reverse mortgage did not go as planned, Esther and Greg did not give up. They worked tirelessly to find another program that would work for me, and they were patient and understanding every step of the way.

Their dedication and hard work paid off, and I am now enjoying the benefits of their expertise. I cannot thank them enough for all of the hours and time they put in to make sure I qualified for the loan and that everything went smoothly.

I must admit that I am not very tech-savvy, and I had some trouble communicating with Esther through text messages. But she was so gracious and patient with me, and I appreciate her kindness and understanding.

The most excellent Company to work with. I was needing a Reverse Mortgage. God lead me to The Home Mortgage Company. I had tried other
companies first, but not happy about their answers. Then Choice Home Mortgage, Ron Nadelberg answered. Cheerful and answered all my up front questions. The entire Company worked every day like clock work. I can't thank Jessica & Melissa for their hard effort. I have and will always continue to recommend this fine and capable Company to everyone considering a reverse mortgage. I believe I can say now that it's funded, I consider myself part of the family. A sigh of sorrow to say goodbye, but also one of friendship.

I had one of the best business interactions that I've ever had.
Esther Buede made my loan application possible by taking the
time to work with me and make my loan come to be in a very
pleasant way, and she was always there for me when I needed
her help on certain matters.
Communications with her were more then excellent, and she
always returned my phone calls promptly.
I would highly recommend her to the people that I know.

This was the 4th biggest event of my lifetime ( behind getting married, having kids & buying the place in 2004 ). Refinancing to a great rate, on my time line & by very friendly staff from start to finish. It started with Esther who I told was competing against someone else for my business. I loved her attitude, her speed & professionalism. She made me feel like I was in charge. The numbers were similar from both companies but hers were slightly lower so I said let’s do this. Than Melissa was handed the ball with the numbers & the goal I had in mind for this loan. We worked well as a team. She left me a list of things the appraiser wanted done to make the appraisal go well. Esther called me ( informally ) to give me a heads up that the appraisal went well & the loan was moving forward , as I was on edge. Melissa & I continued working as a team right to me signing documents at 7pm yesterday which was my goal. My payment & interest rate is much lower & pleased with the old fashioned way I was treated from start to finish. I will be saving thousands on my loan over its lifetime.

Esther Buede was fantastic to work with. She was polite, efficient, and knowledgeable. She walked us right through all of the steps and our loan was approved and funded in record time. I would absolutely work with Esther and Choice Home Mortgage on any future home loan needs.

I had an amazing experience with Choice Home Mortgage. Ron was incredibly responsive from the very first contact. He was available to answer any questions I had about the refinance process, day, night or weekend. Not only was he efficient and professional, but he was also very caring and personable.

I will definitely work with Home choice Mortgage again in the future and I highly recommend them!

Ron did an excellent job. He made the lending process an amazingly painless experience. All we had to do was provide the required information and he did the rest. Everything was taken care of expeditiously and he was always readily available to answer any questions we had. If we ever refinance, we will without question utilize his services again.

I would recommend using Choice Home Mortgage. We had some issues we needed to take care of and they guided us through the process. We are extremely satisfied using them and glad we picked them.

fast service nice stuff..

Our first home mortgage was back in 1981 at 17.5%. Since then we have purchased multiple properties and I cannot tell you how many times we have refinanced with different banks/brokers. Ron and his team provided a great rate along with excellent service! They made the process seamless. It truly was the easiest and most efficient refinance we have ever gone through. We have found our person! Highly recommend.

Greg, Esther & Jay Lee - they went far beyond, to make sure my loan docs were prepared and processed properly and timely.
Very professional and recommend the team highly.
Thank you guys.

I had received a phone call from Choice Home Mortgage. I was not looking to re-finance, but I decided to return the call nevertheless. What ensued turned out to be a stroke of tremendous good fortune. Wendy Flores answered my call and selflessly invested the next 30 minutes educating me as to the potential to overcome the multitude of financing challenges I was positive I would face in a loan process. Twenty-seven days later, we closed the loan.

This was far from my first home loan rodeo and I have to brag on Wendy for the unbelievable professionalism and creativity she brought to the process. She delivered a great loan at a great price in as painless a process as I have ever experienced. She set expectations throughout the process and delivered on every promise made.

The service delivered truly stands out and has earned my highest respect and recommendation.
