Team Aalto

Mark and his team are absolutely incredible. Buying a house in Portland is stressful and scary– unless you have a team of people as good as Mark’s. We were referred to Team Aalto by our realtor and we feel so lucky to have had them taking care of our loan. My husband and I were delighted from our very first conversation with Mark and throughout the whole process we met a small handful of equally friendly people who explained everything to us in a way we could fully understand. I work in the film industry and I don’t work on any one production for longer than 8 months which can be tricky when applying for a loan. Team Aalto understood immediately the nature of my job and they were the only company we reached out to who didn’t require a co-​signer. We were impressed with the professionalism, communication, accuracy and urgency they displayed.
Thank you so much Mark and team, we love our first home!

Mark and his team go above and beyond expectations and I would recommend them to everyone! They are knowledgable and honest, and they treat their clients as though they are their only clients in the world for 30 days. Mark was generous with his time– he helped us with a pre-​approval letter during odd weekend hours, took time to come to our signing, and called to check in every week. Mark and Team Aalto do their job very, very well!

My wife and I just closed on our first house and our experience with Team Aalto was superb. Mark and his gang of mortgage experts walked us through every step with kindness, intelligence and good humor. We got weekly check-​in calls from someone on the team and my ignorant email questions were answered quickly and with detail. On the rare occasion when I had to leave a voice mail the call was returned within the hour.
We will be singing praises for Team Aalto loudly and for a long time to come.

The best and friendliest team in town!
There’s a lot to worry about when buying a house, but our mortgage was something that we didn’t fret over.
Team Aalto made the entire process simple and something we could be confident in.

Mark was instrumental for me to buy my first home. He is knowledgable, quick, and has a great sense of humor. I would recommend him to anyone!

We had a fantastic experience working with Team Aalto. They are very genuine, hard workers, lots of integrity and just seem like good people. Buying a home was a confusing process, but they made it very easy to understand the mortgage process and our options.
Mark actually worked remotely while he was out of town on a Saturday to get us a pre-​approval letter. After our offer was accepted, the team was quick to send us our application paperwork and were quick to follow up on any needed items. They were always very clear about all information.
They also called us every Tuesday to give us an update, even if their wasn’t anything pending, just to make sure we were comfortable with the process and to see if we had any questions.
Mark showed up unprompted when we signed our closing docs and brought a bottle of sparkling wine.
Bottom line, I will recommend Team Aalto to my family and friends.

I have nothing but great things to say about Mark and his team. I was so tentative, nervous and sad when I sold my house of 21 years and bought a new one. Mark calmed me down immediately, both because of his demeanor and the effort he put into the work he did for me. I would recommend him over and over.
