Claire and the rest of the team at Mortgage First were fantastic to work with when getting my home loan.

Diane Stewart

Dominic Federico is amazing. He offered us a great loan at a great rate and terms and delivered it in our tight timeframe. He and his team are diligent about returning telephone calls and following up on the buinsess side of things, so we knew where we were and how things were progressing and wht issues might be if there were any. And, to our plesure, he is a gentleman.

Three words to describe my experience with Mortgage First are efficient, detail oriented, and knowledgeable. I also felt that Claire and the entire team truly cared about me as a person. They wanted me to succeed throughout the entire process. Thank you, Mortgage First!

Claire Mahoney is first and foremost a highly skilled and knowledgeable mortgage professional. When making the biggest purchase of your life don't you want to work with the best of the best? Claire is involved with great mortgage broker associations and not only working hard to improve her own business but the mortgage industry as a whole. Behind all the hard work is a passion for clients and people. If you have been referred to her or are considering working with her and her team you have hit the jackpot of mortgage pros in Oregon...

We’re first time home buyers and Todd Allen got us an amazing deal and we now have a beautiful home!

Lisa Latham

Mortgage First is the BEST lender in the Willamette Valley! Claire was amazing during our refinance and got us an even lower interest rate than I expected. I worked with a lot of lenders in the area and this office is hands down the best.

Jered Thomas

Kerry Vasquez was amazing to work with. From the first sit down through the buying process she was so helpful and never attempted to push us outside our comfortable spending limit. And at the end when we had trouble with title company messing up some paper work, wow, it was like having world class boxer tag in and finish the fight. Can't recommend her enough.

Bridget Welborn

Mortgage First and Dominic Federico are amazing! They are knowledgable, fast and provide excellent customer service. I would refer over and over again. 5 stars!!!

oldmanbakke

Working with Dominic was easy and effortless. Communication was clear and concise. Dominic immediately made contact with our agent and efficiently coordinated timelines and nessesary paperwork. I would highly recommend Mortgage First. Selling and purchasing a home on a contingent sale was difficult itself. It was nice to not have to deal with any hang ups or issues with our mortgage broker.

julie Boeder

Mortgage First Corp, specifically Kris Norton has been excellent in every transaction my clients have had with her! Excellent Mortgage Company!

Jennifer Ellberger

As a first time home buyer, I was overwhelmed and didn't know where to start in the home buying process. Claire was amazing at explaining the process each step of the way! She answered all my questions with a high sense of urgency, and worked hard to make it a stress free process. She even went above and beyond and recommended a great realtor.

Jeff James

Dominic Federico provided incredible customer service. He's knowledgeable, reliable, thorough, and a true professional. We couldn't be more satisfied!

Drea Dixon

We changed loan officers partway through the purchase process, and are incredibly happy we got the referral to Dominic Federico and Mortgage First. Dominic went above and beyond to get everything done by closing. The team, including Kris Norton and Melissa Puttkammer, was amazing. The precess of obtaining a mortgage is not easy, but Dominic made it go smoothly. He truly was our quarterback, and for that we are grateful. We will return to him for our next purchase.

Taylor Blair

Great service and excellent rates. Kris Norton is an absolute pleasure to work with.

richard bradford

Richard Gessford at Mortgage First was a great guy to work with. When working with him he would always and promptly send me an analysis of various interest rates and the credits for given down payments in order for me to with his input pick the best way to go. Very happy!

Kelan Silvester

Richard did a stellar job to support us with mortgage information, details, and ultimately securing the mortgage. We have used him several times before, and will use his services again, and would strongly recommend him to others. Even though he lives/works in Salem, Richard came to our home in Portland to review the information and to sign the paperwork. He is very knowledgeable and a great friend to have in his business.

Craig Ranker

Todd and Claire are very knowledgeable and helped us consider options we were not familiar with, they are a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend them.

Mark Severson

Working with Dominic was first class. Dominic asks for just what he needs and knows what the mortgage company will require. The transaction went through very smoothly and on time. I highly recommend Dominic at First Mortgage.

Todd has been nothing short of exceptional the 3 times I've used Mortgage First for my home loan needs. There's nobody else in the Salem area I'd trust. A+ experiences and I look forward to more in the future.

Vera Kiryuta

Two times I worked with Todd Allen and both experiences was have been OUTSTANDING .I referred my friends to him .Very recommended Todd Allen /Mortgage First Corporation. Thank you.

Bill H.

We moved between states, so all the details of our mortgage had to be handled by phone or electronically. Dominic at Mortgage First made the process flow smoothly. He was a pleasure to work with and highly competent, guiding us through each decision and taking care to ensure we understood everything. I recommend them without reservation.

Jim Durrant

Financed the purchase of our new home at Mortgage First with Todd Allen. There were some different issues that had to be addressed and we were so glad we had Todd to guide us through it. With 30 years in the real estate business I have had many lenders make promises they could not keep. Todd actually has in depth knowledge of the different lending options and knows what does work and does not. he answered all our questions. Returned phone calls and followed through. We actually closed on time! I have tried many of the others. I will only be going to Mortgage First from now on.

Dustin Brumley

Generally speaking, Claire is my favorite person in lending. I am a mortgage lender in Washington so you can imagine that I have very high expectations. Claire exceeds them all. If you are looking for a subpar experience you definitely want to shop around but if you want to be with someone so professional that she impresses the pros, you are with the right person. Basically, Claire Mahoney is the shizz.

Connie Bresee

Always professional. Answer questions in a timely manner. Great communicators. The best I've worked with in 36 years.

terri dowd

We worked with Kerry and she was amazing. I work in the financial industry and was super impressed with her follow through. Everything closed quickly and there were no issues. She really knew her stuff.

Jeff Pauley

Melissa Puttkammer helped my partner and I through the home buying process. She was professional and easy to work with. We are so happy to have worked with Melissa and will definitely come back to her for all our future needs!

Great local company. I have referred 10+ friends & clients over the past year. Great rates & Fantastic service!

Maeghan Angel

Claire is exceptional to work with! I work with her on the title and escrow side of the business, she is always communicating proactively and at the end of the transaction her clients and all parties in the room are ALWAYS so pleased! I look forward to working with Claire any chance I get and highly recommend her to anyone!

David Alexander

Todd and his crew were wonderful. Always a step ahead of us. They were always ready with the needed information needed to make the closing of our home as easy as it cold possibly get.

Sean Anderson

Very professional. Mortgage First has great communication skills and anticipate any potential problems before they occur setting their clients up to succeed.

Holly Carter

We worked with Mortgage First for both the purchase of our home four years ago and again to refinance the house this year. In both cases, they got us great rates and made the process quick and painless. Especially as first-time home buyers, we really appreciated both their expertise and their professionalism. We highly recommend!

Joshua Sandeman

Mortgage first was a huge help for us, very knowledgeable and highly professional.

Rocky Zachary

Mortgage First was amazing from the start. We are first time home buyers and we didn't really know what we were doing or where to start. Claire was very helpful and knowledgeable about everything from how to get the process going to VA home loans to closing. We were both very surprised at how smoothly everything went from beginning to end and all the paperwork went through so fast! If we hit a snag, Claire would be right on top of it, getting it fixed. If we needed to sign a couple more papers she would let us know, and we could do most of it from home on the computer (which was nice because our schedule is very busy!) Overall our experience with Mortgage First was excellent. I would definitely recommend them to friends, family, ANYONE! and we will most definitely be utilizing their abilities next time..after we grow out of this house and need a bigger one! Thank you so much!!

Rhonda Marshall

Dominic Federico and Mortgage First were great! Excellent knowledge and communication.
