What Our Members Are Saying

Joel

"We have our closing this evening and I wanted to thank you for all the work you put into our multiple (and future) loans with you. It is such a pleasure to work with you on these. You understand all the issues, are very helpful, responsive, and you've given me a lot of confidence in having our mortgages with Seattle Credit Union. We are so grateful for your hard work, friendliness, and expertise."

Marco

"I could not be more satisfied. Despite the length of time, my agent was continuously responsive and helpful at every step, often well after 5 pm. I always knew where we were in the process and what was coming next. They worked very hard to get the three refis correct and balanced them out so we were not out of pocket any money."

Chris

"We really appreciated the great experience you provided for our mortgage loan. Your communications were timely. You led us through the process step by step. And you were so fast in getting the process completed! It was really refreshing to work with you."
