The Alex Caragiannides Lending Team

Alex and his team have done it again!
We have worked with Alex on three loans/​refinances, each of which had different challenges that we have had to navigate through. Each time Alex and his team were able to get through all obstacles to get our loans funded. Alex and his team provided constant communication and follow-​up, were available for any questions we had, and provided excellent customer service throughout the entire process on each loan.
I would highly recommend reaching out to the Alex Caragiannides Lending Team for any and all your mortgage needs.

Alex and his team have been nothing but a five star team! They have helped us out through all our problems with our home buying service! They are also the best with the VA home loan situation differently would recommend to all are family and friends!

I am on the receiving end of this particular lender. Unfortunately, he has not been forthcoming with my realtor in the business dealing and our escrow fell through in part by him. Not at all prompt with the documents and paperwork work requested towards the end of closing. My realtor and husband have left numerous voicemail messages to call back to discuss what the hold up was on the buyer’s lending status. There was no courtesy call back or any attempt at any reinitiating of conversation. This guy didn’t even have the decency to let my realtor know that he was going to Chicago for a conference and left us (Seller) and his client (Buyer) hanging while waiting on him to process one single document that was holding up Escrow. He pre-​qualifies Buyers and guarantees that they are good to go assuring both the buyers and seller realtors that everything is good to go when clearly it’s not the case. It’s unfortunate that the Buyers at the end were unable to qualify but that didn’t mean that Mr. Alex Caragiannides needed to string them and us along. Instead he should have provided the information that he knew right away but instead he was very unprofessional and failed to inform the necessary parties that needed to know in a timely manner. This has been an epic fail and its a sad day that we were not able to sell our home to another couple that hoped to purchase it. Their dreams have been crushed right now and I feel bad for them that they had to go through this unfortunate ordeal with this lender. I would recommend that buyers and realtors do their due diligence and research first before considering doing business with this particular lender and inquire how this business dealing was handled. In my opinion, how this ended was unprofessionally handled by this particular lender. Not even having the professional decency to call back after leaving messages throughout the week by my realtor, her lender, my husband. Unbelievable. I do not recommend at all.

I met Alex Caragiannides at a USO Event, supporting the U.S. Armed Forces personnel and their families worldwide. His company was a sponsor of the event. Speaking with him, I found his passion for serving others aligned with mine. Working with the Alex Caragiannides Lending Team, I found their service goes above and beyond the services I had experienced from other Lenders. With previous Lenders, I had to call for loan updates and many times I received calls from frustrated Buyers not being able to reach their Lender. With Alex’s team, I did not have to pick up the phone once to find out the status of my Buyer’s loan. Every Tuesday the Buyer, Listing Agent, Assistants, Transaction Coordinators and myself received weekly loan forecasts and updates of achievement. We also received emails when an item was checked off their progress list. Alex does not just pre-​qualify the Buyers I am working with, he pre-​approves them after an underwriter reviews the entire file. He goes one step further and offers a unique closing guarantee to submit with my Buyer’s offer. I don’t know anyone else who offers that. When my Buyer’s offer is competing against other offers, I know the guarantee assists in being chosen over the other offers.
I highly recommend The Alex Caragiannides Lending Team to everyone I know because of their professionalism, passion, efficiency, and enthusiasm to do their best for my clients.

Great service! I loved the weekly updates, I never had to guess what the status was, during the whole process. We closed on time and I couldn’t be more pleased on how smooth everything went. I highly recommend Alex and his team.

Alex and team are truly amazing. The team has been together a long time which creates consistency. We do a lot of business together and I’ve yet to see a transaction not go smoothly start to closing… always on time, and always happy customers. They communicate weekly with customers which I know the customers appreciate. They have experience as one of the strongest VA lenders in San Diego and are now able to do any kind of transaction with the recent move that expanded their offering. I highly recommend them to consumers and Realtors looking for a reliable resource.
