Carese and Elsy were always communicative and generous with their time, answering our questions and advocating on our behalf with the underwriters--so much so, that we were able to close in seemingly record time as final documents for my wife's employment were obtained. Carese also proactively informed us about financing options that we didn't know about previously but, in the end, were incredibly valuable. - Scott - Seattle, WA

We’ve really enjoyed working with Carese. I did my first home refi with her about 17 years ago and have continued to work with her ever since. Since then, she’s helped us with a wide variety of additional loans that have included primary residence, HLOC, out-of-statement investment properties as well as 1031 exchanges. What I appreciate the most about my relationship with Carese is her willingness to answer questions when I am exploring new real estate opportunities. Her wealth of knowledge has been so valuable. - Aaron

Carese is amazing. Her ability to understand each individual situation for me as a client was great. When things changed financially for me, she immediately helped me to understand what that meant for me as a buyer. She takes the time to explain everything in a way that is understandable. As a first time buyer, I didn't know what I didn't know! She could have just told me what she needed to tell me and been done, but she went above & beyond to make sure I understand each and every step. I would 1000% recommend her to anyone else. She has a distinct ability to really build a relationship with her clients. I didn't feel like it was just a business transaction. I felt like she was truly invested in me buying my first home! - Mary - Shoreline, WA

The communication with respect to company and IRS documentation could be better. Also, the main purpose of this loan was to pay off the home equity that was owned by ex-wife and to have a clear and lien-free title (other than the loan itself) I explicitly requested documentation to prove that my ex-wife has been paid and that the terms of the divorce has been satisfied. To this date, I have not received any such documentation. While my ex-wife has verbally confirmed she received the payment, I need to receive formal documentation as legal proof ASAP. Other than that, my experience has been pleasant and I would recommend Carese Busby to my friends and family and business partners who may be in need of a loan. - Kurt - Seattle, WA

I always felt like I was provided with the knowledge I needed to feel confident and comfortable with every step of the loan application process. I always appreciated Team Carese Busby's patience with my questions, as well as their prompt replies to texts and voicemail messages. I know they are a very busy group and work simultaneously with many clients, but they have that special way of always making me feel like I am the most important client at the time! Thank you! - Karin - Ferndale, WA

Carese, Elsy, John, Audrey and Caliber Home Loans were amazing in helping us get a loan for our dream home. All members were incredibly knowledgeable and were able to answer every question we had. They showed up which the highest and lowest amounts we could get and provided great insights on current interest rates and how they will be in the future. Carese even communicated with the seller's broker while on a plane to ensure we got our house! This team is amazing and I would deeply recommend them to anyone and everyone. - Brett - Auburn, WA

Carese and team were very responsive to our needs even when they happened late in the day or on the weekend. We really enjoyed the initial conversation and details Carese provided and then the consult about our home loan options and pricing. They made sure to always answer our questions or clarify when we didn’t understand. - Christina - Saint Johns, FL

I liked that Carese took the time to explain anything I didn't understand, and that she was willing to discuss the loan with my family so I could get their opinions too. - Nikole - Seattle, WA
