Adem, working with you throughout your home loan journey was an absolute pleasure. I'm so glad we could make the entire process smooth and straightforward for you. If you ever need anything down the road, my team and I are always here to help.

Overall, I had a great experience working with Joni as my loan officer to help find the right loan for me. As a first time homebuyer struggling financially, I didn't think it would be possible to get downpayment assistance but Joni didn't give up and found a program that was right for me to help me get my first mortgage for our first home! I am grateful for all the help I've had in the homebuying process being able to ask questions and get estimates on potential houses and payments through First Step Home Loans. Jodi has also checked up on us after moving in and made sure I was set up for success with my first mortgage payment. Thank you for helping us!! I would recommend them for any first time homebuyers. They are knowledgeable and respectful to work with.

Our dream of moving and owning a home in Colorado was made a reality by First Step Home Loans and the extremely proficient, knowledgeable, timely and professional Cody McHugh. Cody is an excellent communicator and financial specialists. His consistent, hands on style made our move from Indiana as stress free as possible. Any questions or concerns were addressed in a timely manner. No stressing or pressure over the documents sent because Cody spent time with us ensuring we understood all information. We trust Cody and First Step. He worked closely with our realtor...ensuring a successful closing and move for us. Our closing was so smooth! We moved directly from one home into our new home! We will continue to work with Cody and First Step Home Loans for any future needs. We highly recommend this company and Cody for all your home mortgage needs. .

Exceptional Loan Officer! I recently had the pleasure of working with Joni G to secure a mortgage for my new home, and I am thrilled with the experience. Joni demonstrated a deep understanding of the mortgage industry. She explained the various loan options available to me, including the pros and cons of each, which helped me make an informed decision. Throughout the entire process, Joni was incredibly responsive. Whether I had questions about interest rates, documentation, or the status of my application, she was always quick to respond via phone or email. Joni was supportive and patient, guiding me through each step of the process. She made sure I understood all the terms and conditions, and she was always available to clarify any doubts I had. From start to finish, Joni displayed the utmost professionalism. She kept me informed about the progress of my application and ensured that everything was on track for a timely closing. Even when at time it looked like closing date would be move, she was quick to provide me with an update all well pushing for the closing date to remain the same. Overall, Joni made the mortgage process an unforgettable experience. Her expertise, dedication, and professionalism are unmatched.

I am so thankful to Cody and First Step Home Loans for securing me a loan for my new home. When I wanted to stop the processing because of the stress involved,Cody was the one who advised and encouraged me not to withdraw. His words of encouragement, advise and efforts in the process of securing me the loan was amazing and I really recommend him to future home buyers.

Cody M was stellar in helping me to purchase my first property in Aurora. Cody M helped me understands everything about the process, from pre approval up to the closing he was guiding me. Cody M was very responsive about all my concerns in every step of the way. Cody also helped me get my first property in my own terms and conditions using his expertise in as a loan officer. I also got a cheaper closing cost as a big surprise. I will surely recommend Cody M to all my friends who dreams of getting their first property and surely I will have him again as my loan officer in the future. Thank you again Cody M for the big help, also Ms Blanca did an excellent job processing amd patiently waiting for all my paper work.

Thank you so much Cody for the work hard...I appreciate you man

Cody was very helpful every step of the way. He was responsive & went through everything with us in detail, even at times that werenโ€™t always the most convenient for him. We appreciate his help very much. Blanca was also lovely. The team made it a great home buying experience.

Krissy from First Step Home Loans was absolutely amazing! It had been awhile since I had gone through the mortgage qualifying process. Krissy went far beyond helpful. She was clear about what what documentation was needed, and not only was she readily available to answer ALL my questions, Krissy was patient, kind, and overall a delight to talk to. Also, in some cases she contacted companies on my behalf when things seemed to get bogged down. I feel so fortunate that our paths crossed when it was time to buy my new home. I am happily settled and Krissy from First Step Home Loans had a big part in making it all happen.

With the cost of housing rising every week, our family thought it would be impossible to own a home. Tanaia made it possible.

I cannot thank Cody and Blanca enough for the amazing level of service they provided. Cody really worked hard to lock in the lowest interest rate possible and when it came time for closing, we were able to obtain an earlier closing date than expected so I wouldn't have to take time off of work. They are so communicative, knowledgeable, prompt, and organized. Very happy with my experience, 10/10
