Would definitely recommend. I worked with Jilyn Ann Huddleston Crawford and bugged her at all hours of the day, with questions, and she was always willing to take the time to answer my questions and explain things to me that I didn't understand.

I've had the pleasure of working with Fred and his team for years. Under stressful circumstances, they are always incredibly patient, and kind. Their positivity and helpfulness is clearly by design, rather than on accident. I am consistently impressed with the level of professionalism with a personal touch, provided by American Family Funding and recommend them wholeheartedly.

Thank you Fred Arnold! This is our second Re-Fi with American Family Funding and Fred always makes sure he comes personally with the initial paperwork and walks us through the WHOLE process, who we will be hearing from, what comes next, etc. We would never go anywhere else, we always finish on time, and feel like we have been well taken care of. Thank you again!

I cannot say enough about American Family Funding and specifically, Tom Pflaumer. From the beginning of this process to the very end, my husband and I knew we were being taken care of by the very best. Tom Pflaumer is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and always has your best interests at heart. Tom and American Family Funding care about you and take the time to listen and understand your needs. They work hard towards helping you with your home loan needs, so if you are looking for where to go, THIS is where you want to be.

Fred and Nicole at American Family Funding were amazingly thorough and responsive to all the questions and uncertainties of our first home buying experience. I felt that Fred was patient and supportive in explaining all of the options within the complex process of buying a house and he was willing to repeat things, that I didn t understand the first time, without causing me to feel pressured or overwhelmed. These guys rock! And I will definitely call AFF again if I ever need to buy another house.

First of all, our case was not your typical home buying case... it was a complicated 11 month probate process with a goal to purchase. There were so many chances of failure, but Vytas understood the situation very well and helped us every step of the way resulting in a successful life changing purchase of the new home. His expertise was exceptional!

There are many choices when it comes to home loans and refinancing, however, when you are looking for a broker look no further as American Family Funding is amazing. They are so responsive, reliable and knowledgable. Ask for Fred Arnold, we have built a trusting relationship for over 8 years. Not to mention he helps all of my referrals get into a new home even when they did not think it was possible.
Plus, American Family Funding is a community player and always helping the Santa Clarita valley community.
If you want a hands on broker, look no further.

Patti Handy is second to none. She is thorough, easily accessible, extremely knowledgeable and one of the most trustworthy and ethical people I know. I have worked with Patti for years as I am a real estate appraiser and realtor/broker. I also know many people who have used her services repeatedly for years. I trust her expertise and know that she would never steer me (or my clients) wrong in the financing aspect of real estate.

I just completed a mortgage refinance with Patti Handy from American Family Funding and I was extremely pleased with her knowledge and friendly and professional service. It was a complicated transaction that required some extensive paperwork and she explained what was need and why and helped me whenever I needed assistance with a positive and upbeat attitude. The processors and underwriting all worked well together and she uses an escrow officer that is outstanding too! A really great experience and we funded our loan in 30 days! Can't say enough about Patti and her work.

We have used American Family Funding several times. Fred Arnold is the best person we have ever used for our mortgage needs. He is communicative, knowledgeable and responds quickly to any questions or concerns. And he is just such a nice person. His team is top notch!
From beginning to the end of the process, they were professional and expedient. I can't say enough good things about our experience. If you haven't already, give them a try.

Rhona Jukes at AFF was fantastic. Met her at a mortgage "meet & greet" held at Matadors Community Credit Union in Northridge. We talked about our desire to re-fi in order to bring down the interest rate and get some cash out for home improvement. She worked with Matadors to get us an excellent rate! The paperwork process was smooth and well organized, and we were funded in about a month. Highly recommended.

Fred Arnold provided us with the best no-hassle refinancing experience I have ever encountered. The loan process was progressive, timely, and highly professional, yet caring and attentive. During these challenging pandemic times, he and his team forged through and were able to process our loan in an efficient and timely manner. We highly recommend American Family Funding for any loan matters. We will use him again should the need arise.

Tom and The American Family Funding team were phenomenal with acquiring my wife and I our new home loan. Interest rates and fees were very comparable to the big banks and other lenders, and I knew being self-employed the possibilities were apparent of our loan not panning out, but they went the extra mile working diligently to explain the unique circumstances not always defined in financial paperwork. This is not my first experience with the American Family Team, and if my plans ever change from this being my retirement property, I would definitely use them again. I recommend Tom and the team highly for all my Real Estate Financial needs, in addition to my family & friends interested in 1st, 2nd, 3rd or their retirement home. 5 STARS out of 5 STARS !

Dave Barton and Mountain West Mortgage are the best of the best. Dave helped us with our first mortgage 15 years ago and just helped us with our mortgage on our dream home. Dave treated us as friends from our first meeting. We felt like he was personally invested in getting us the best rate and giving us the best service. We cannot say enough how grateful we are for all that he has done for us.

Tom Pflaumer is the best there is! He helped us every step of the way in buying our first home. We have been in the home buying process for three years trying to find our perfect home and he stuck it out with us the entire time being patient, giving guidance and mentoring us through the whole process. He is very professional and is as honest as they come. He made us feel comfortable with our purchase by constantly crunching numbers for us for different scenarios so we can get the best deal. He s one of a kind, and an absolute pleasure to work with!

Five stars for the love we got from everyone we interacted with at American Family Funding. They took the time to learn about us and our needs and desires before they recommended a plan for us. Then they moved forward efficiently and effectively to make it happen. Great job!

Any mortgage broker can get you a loan. Only the best can get you the right loan for you at the best rates. American Family Funding is the best. We recommend them highly.

Unfortunately, bad bad experience. Misquoted the amount I would need down. Ran me through the ringer for months and missed out on a beautiful investment property because of lack of experience? I had to call her out on things she should have known. Another loan officer for a different company was able to get me sorted out and on my way. Stay far away from this place if they employ these kinds of people. Out of respect for her I will not name her but I had to speak my peace because this really hurt my family's ability to support ourselves and now we are dealing with covid. Shame on you guys

You won't regret working with Rhona!

This is my second time refinancing my mortgage with David Cantrell and American Family Funding. Their customer service and communication is outstanding and David was able to find a great rate to help me meet my financial goals. The AFF staff and the escrow company made it secure and easy for me to upload my documents, provide e-signatures, and even the in person notarizing of my final documents was handled safely and securely. I highly recommend their services.

Tried going through them to get a loan and at first everything was great. We were told that we were approved for 200k and they just had to do the final numbers. Get a call the next day saying that after running the numbers we were only qualified for 160k. Well we were a little disappointed but started looking for home and once we found one we talked with the realtor who was helping. He told us we needed a couple final documents to close the loan deal. My sister sent them all the documents, cause the loan would be in her name, only to find out today that they, Preston, gave us the run around. Claiming that as of today, august 15th 2017, the fha credit score requirements went up to 640 to qualify for the loan and down payment assistance. At first he told not only my sister but my husband as well that the current qualifying score was 580 and that both my sister and husband qualified. I as well as my husband searched the current credit scores neede and they said you need a 580. So in the end we spent a couple weeks giving Preston information, that I felt was a little too much, all for nothing and now we can't buy a house for our family to have a stable environment. One things for sure is I won't be using them or will I be referring them to any friends or family

Tom Pflaumer was recommended to us by our CPA. We reached out to Tom several years ago to refinance our house, but Tom was unable to help us at that time. We were upside down with respect to the value of our home.

Tom never gave up, however. He kept in touch, watched home values, and worked with us until our home value, credit portfolio, etc., were aligned to enable us to work out a much more advantageous deal. We were able to pay off a second mortgage with a high interest rate and another account. Our new payment, which includes the property taxes, is lower than the old payments.

I am proud to recommend Tom Pflaumer and his organization. He is ethical, professional, compassionate, and intensely focused on creating value for his clients.
