Peter Barnes - RPM Mortgage Berkeley Shattuck Ave #B, Berkeley

Peter and his entire team are SO focused on helping their clients and truly creating the BEST scenario possible for them. Peter impresses me as a VERY honest professional. All of our questions were answered very quickly with accurate information. Peter and his team even found a few ways to save us a significant amount of money - things that we never would have thought of. This is the second mortgage that Peter handled for us and i see no reason to look elsewhere in the future should we refinance

My wife and I worked with Peter Barnes when refinancing our investment properties. Peter was able to help us accomplish our goal of lowering the rates and payments. I had gone through other loan processes before with other lenders and this was by far the best experience. From the beginning, Peter and his team were responsive, answered any questions that we had, and provided several loan options to choose from. He far exceeded expectations and I won't hesitate to work with him again on future transactions. He is someone you can trust to have your best interests in mind.

For several years I had been considering refinancing my home, but dreaded the experience after a refi with another company who made it a real hassle, with numerous mistakes, poor information, extremely slow responses, and many other glitches. Not so with Peter! Based on the great reviews he has, I called him. He happened to be out of town, so I left a message, and his assistant Holly called me within 30 minutes, emailed me with pertinent information, and got me started. From that easy beginning, the rest went so smoothly that I hardly knew I was engaged in the same process as before. When I met with Peter, he took time to answer all my questions, explained everything in terms I could understand (and I'm no expert in financial matters!), and reassured me that everything would work out. And it did! The loan was concluded easily and quickly, and Peter helped me keep my mortgage payment at the same level as before, while taking out of my equity enough cash to make some badly needed repairs on my house. And all without stress on my part! You can't do better than Peter and his team - they're all friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and responsive people. Absolutely the best!!!

We've worked with Peter and his team numerous times and every time has been a great stress free experience. His team works diligently, have excellent customer service, are very knowledgeable, and care about your family's needs. We are very happy to have worked with Peter and his team!

Peter is a real mensch! During our time of duress while we were in the process of trying to write a purchase mortgage loan with Wells Fargo, Peter gave us wise council and the support to hang-in there to reach the finish line. To say his support relieved our heightened stress levels is an understatement: Peter was there to write the loan even if Wells said "No." That commitment is priceless--that's Peter! This is the first time I have ever given anyone an endorsement on-line and I'm doing so with enthusiasm. Peter is 5 stars all-th-way and he won't let you down. Thank you Peter. Joel & Joanie

My wife and I recently purchased a home in Oakland, and we were initially working with a national lender. Our real estate agent recommended we explore other options for better service and faster closing, and recommended Peter. I reached out to Peter by email around 6:30am and he responded just after 7am and we were sailing through getting documents submitted and such by 7:30am. Peter and his team are professional, responsive, kind, and more than willing to talk you through any and all questions. I could not imagine any other lender could possibly match the level of service we experienced. Peter even came to our final signing of documents to congratulate us in person. Obviously, service isn't the only measure. The rates we got were quite favorable, the fees were all very reasonable and explained in detail, and we did not feel pressured/confused/swindled at any point in the process. I would highly recommend Peter to anyone who needs a mortgage in the area.

I have been referring clients to Peter for several years to meet their home financing needs. This year, I had an opportunity to work with Peter on my own refinance and the experience was just as expected and then some. Peter and his team are professional, positive and a true pleasure to work with, I will continue to recommend his services to all of my clients.

After I made the mistake of going directly to the lender who held our mortgage, I came to my senses and looked for a mortgage broker. Peter and his team at RPM saved me. They are entirely professional, extremely nice people and did my refi perfectly. I used to be a mortgage broker myself, and I can highly recommend this company!

peter and his team were immensely helpful with the purchase of our first home. since we were new to the process, it was easy to get overwhelmed by just how much we didn't know, and the weight of all the questions we had. peter and his team gracefully and patiently handled all our questions, and explained things very well. they made the process very easy, and we really appreciated their time and attention. highly recommended!

Peter managed and closed my mortgage refinance process timely and efficiently. I needed to close the loan a short period of time due to a prearranged travel plan. Peter’s thoroughness and frequent communication prevented many possible delays so that we were able to close the loan on time. Then I went abroad for a month with peace in mind. Peter’s entire team is very responsive and professional. I highly recommend Peter and RPM mortgage.
