Anchor Funding

We refied with this company and had no problems throughout the process. We did a lot of homework and shopped around for best rates and Kevin was willing to match the lowest found. Looking forward to hundreds saved monthly!

HOLY SMOKES! I am not going to lie i was a little sketchy at first, I mean what kind of business doesn’t take a percentage, a point or any kind of profit from me? This business! I had my dad call and speak to him to make sure I wasn’t being taken advantage of as a woman. My dad is very business savvy and especially with finances. They spoke on the phone and my dad told me he was legit. My father and I went down together to sign paperwork and Kevin explained everything to us from start to finish. He was very polite and answered all of our questions. No joke from the time i started the Re-​fi, I did the appraisal 4 days later and my loan closed in 2 weeks. I got a check and from Anchor funding for a percentage of my appraisal fee back as well as a thank you gift which i thought was very nice. I recommended anchor funding to my friends as well and they also closed in 2 weeks and were VERY happy with the outcome and savings! I will continue to recommend anchor funding and kevin to my friends, family and coworkers.

«Dead in The Water!»
Heard about him on the Rick Roberts and Hannity programs. His ad said they could help «almost anyone» so I called in about doing a re-​fi on a home with minimal equity.
«We’re dead in the water — nothing I can do» is what he told me. Shortest phone call I’ve pretty much ever had.
Of course, a week later I found a broker that could help me. My advice? Go with a personal referral so there are no surprises.
**And DON’T trust companies just because they paid Hannity to hock their products or services. **

I recommend using someone else. Was about to close and because market conditions changed they raised the rate on me prior to signing. Poor service and poor customer care. Avoid this place

I had two refinance experiences with Kevin and could not be happier! Kevin and his staff were always professional, efficient and extremely pleasant to deal with. Kevin always returned my calls and responded to my emails quickly. I would never go anywhere else! I hope he never retires.

I am disappointed. I left my name and number. I asked who would be calling me back and was told Kevin or eli. I explained I needed to move on this loan as I was to hear any day on my offer being accepted. I was told I would get a call back before the end of the day. Nope. Out of curiosity I called a week later and asked for Kevin. I explained I left a, message last week. The woman who answered the phone said ge was in the phone with a client and would get my message when he got off the phone. Another week has gone by… needless to. say I found another company to do business with and they were grateful for my business. Lesson don’t fall for paid advertising on am 760…

I called these guys (actually I called Academy Funding, but they apparently are affiliated) and Eli Moss quickly returned my call. He took all necessary information over the phone and emailed me a re-​fi estimate within a few hours. I compared their closing costs and rate with two other places and Anchor beat them in both areas. After giving it some thought for about a week I decided to go ahead, called Eli back and started the process. From here on it was an extremely smooth, I was surprised. About 2 weeks into the process I was thinking to my self if I should give Eli a call to see if he could do anything to the rate, I was watching the news and the rates were coming down a little. I knew my rate was locked, but I figured it was worth a try. This may sound weird, but I didn’t get to give him a call that morning when I checked the market, and a few hours later he _​called me_​out of the blue! He said he had great news, he was able to cut down the rate and also lower the closing costs! Very very impressed with his honesty, he could’ve just kept the profit.
Working with the appraiser, loan officer and escrow was a breeze, especially the loan officer (Lisa) was extremely helpful! I had trouble getting a particular bank statement from my remote bank and they worked with me to resolve the matter very efficiently.
In the end I saved a nice chunk of change and closed in about 3 weeks from the day I told them to go ahead. I’ve done re-​fi before, and both used and new-​home financing and this was by far the best experience.

Wow, Kevin Thanks for this post after you threaten to sue me over what you considered «defamation of Character» «slander» and «libel». It would be nice if you would write about that email you sent me, if you would like I can post it?

I heard a commercial for Kevin Lyons and Anchor Funding on the radio and took a chance calling. I had called a few companies and gotten their rates. His rates were very competitve. He delivered exactly what was disclosed in the initial good faith estimate he provided. There were no closing costs. Kevin and his staff were professional and kind. Anchor makes their money by immediately selling your loan to a big bank. It’s a plus for everyone as long as you have a decent credit score and can show decent income. They saved me over $ 200.00 on my mortgage payment. I imagine that some of the other «not so good» postings below are a result of unqualified people unhappy with not getting what they think they qualify for. I was happy with this company and would definitely recommend to friends and family.

I’ve trusted recommendations by Rick Roberts on 760am over the years and have never been disappointed until this week. I called Kevin Lyons to discuss a refinance of my home. His secretary asked about three questions and told me Kevin would call me back later in the day. That never happened and the next day I received a message from again «his secretary» that maybe I should try again next year? That is not what I wanted to hear. I really wanted to get out of the adjustable mortgage that I’m currently in. Kevin did you think that the $ 100,000 in equity wasn’t enough to refi, did you think if you had bothered to ask me, that I may have money to also put down on a fixed loan? Oh, wait a minute, you never talked to me so how would you know. Call you back next year, I don’t think so and just remember when a customer is happy he’ll tell five people, when he is unhappy he’ll tell ten people. In your case I’ll tell anyone that will listen. PS: Rick Roberts, this is the first time I’ve been disappointed.

Had a very bad experience with Kevin. Went to him to get a lower rate on our mortgage. He found a lender who would give us a lower rate, but Kevin wanted to charge us a couple thousand dollars for his services. Mind you we have excellent credit and it probably took him 30 minutes to find another lender. We told him that we thought his cost was too high and he went through the ceiling. Wow what a temper. He was very unprofessional after that. The next day we went to our existing lender, Washington Mutual, and got an even lower rate then what Kevin found. Kevin never suggested trying our lender first. A true professional would have.
