Based on working with the Hawaii Mortgage Company to obtain three mortgage loans over the past nine years, I am convinced that they are the best option for real property... read more customers in the State of Hawaii. Alan Van Zee, Maura Shannon and the others on the company’s support staff are very efficient, courteous and professional in every respect. Since they work with multiple Hawaii banks and other financial institutions on a daily basis, they can provide customers with multiple options on interest rates and terms to help choose the best option for you. Further, their services are free to us. Since they are so well organized, and provide the local banks and other financial institutions with a steady flow of well-documented and pre-qualified prospective mortgagees, the lenders compensate them with a commission at no expense to the borrower. When I may need advice on another mortgage loan in the future, Alan will always be my first call!
