I am self-employed and my income taxes are odd, the traditional banks get lost with my case. This is my second time working with Capstone Direct and they personalize every transaction to get me to what we need to obtain mortgage. The team it top notch, the process is fast and easy. Next time I am going back to Mike with my refinance needs. He is my banker forever. Thank you! :)

Capstone Direct took the time to listen to our unique situation which aided greatly in our application process and loan funding acceptance. They kept us informed every step in a stressful process and reassured us without making promises they couldn't keep. They picked up the pieces when our initial lender couldn't complete the process. Mike not only has the experience in funding loans but also has compassion for the customer. We have the roof we want over our heads thanks to Capstone.

Mike Wise and Capstone Direct Went Above and Beyond!
Mike and his wonderful Capstone Direct Team saved the day for my clients.
In this fast-paced crazy, multiple offer market, my clients were being considered for a home that they really wanted, but the seller’s agent couldn’t get in touch with the lender they had chosen!!
I was frantic on a Friday evening close to 5:00pm., trying to help my buyers!
After a quick call to Mike, he jumped into action and processed their pre-approval and called the agent that evening, just as the agent was presenting all the offers!
Mike confirmed all my clients

Mike and the Capstone team are amazing. We just completed our third and by far the most complicated mortgage with Mike. He pulled it off on time and with minimal hassle, at a very competitive interest rate. Thanks, Mike!

Mike was very knowledgeable about what type of loan we could qualify for and what we would need to make it happen. We were looking to refinance a jumbo loan at a time when many lenders were not offering jumbo loans. Mike said he could get it done and he did. Our new loan has an interest rate that is almost half of our previous interest rate. I would definitely recommend Mike and his team!

It's been a while since I refinanced but back when I did, it could not have gone smoother. I've dealt with other lenders and while I'm no expert, I know when things are good. This organization is very good.

Thank you so much to Mike, Jessica, and the rest of the Capstone team for helping me get my mortgage under control! I was one of those who bought my place in 2005 back when the "really bad mortgages" were a thing (and right before the market crash). For ethical reasons I've stuck it out all this time with a really lousy mortgage, no equity, etc., and finally had the chance to fix that. Mike and his team were such a valued resource and helped get me into a solid, current, & manageable mortgage that has drastically changed both my finances and stress level. Thanks for being

We have known Mike for many years and can attest to not only his personable character, but to his knowledgeable and expertise in his field. The last escrow we closed with Mike, was so efficient that he was able to get us closed early! We have full confidence in his abilities, he is a great listener, and we are confident that he has the interest of others before his own. Thankful to work with him and his team!

Brian Farwell and the entire Capstone Team are great! Responsive, efficient and without a doubt one of the easiest lenders to work with (I work in escrow, trust me)! They make it happen, whatever it takes. Thank you all so much!

My wife and I worked with Kelly McKinney on financing our purchase and what a wonderful experience it was! If you are looking to finance a loan or refi, you found a gem! Kelly is absolutely phenomenal.

Kelly went above and beyond to make sure the entire experience was perfectly smooth and flawless. Kelly was very personable and pleasant to deal with; we truly felt like old friends. She responds to any form of communication, whether it's phone, email or even text message immediately including after hours, weekend and holidays! She is simply AMAZING! I will never work with anyone else for

My husband and I were 2 months into the refinance process with Navy Federal Credit Union. Having prior background in the mortgage industry, I was completely appalled with the lack of progress, communication, and customer service from NFCU. When I called to get a status update on our loan, I was told, "I'm sorry, but there are other people trying to refinance at the same time you are." We were already 2 months in, our escrow and appraisal hadn't even been ordered and our rate lock was about to expire right before the election. By fate, I ran into a couple who was closing

Our experience with Capstone was horrendous! Agent didn't have a clue about how reverse mortgages worked in Calif. Agent totally dropped the ball, lost forms that were faxed to him, never contacted us to let us know how our loan was going. We only heard from him when we contacted his boss. Agent was inept at his job, unprofessional. The way our account was handled by Capstone as unprofessional as it could be. Result was we lost $5000 because the broker didn't have a clue as to how reverse mortgages worked in Calif. Don't let this happen to you!!! If you are considering a reverse

I have been referring clients to Mike Wise at Capstone Direct for a few years. All of my clients have been treated with outstanding customer service. Mike's team is a well-oiled machine. They not only provide a great client experience during the loan process, but also have wonderful loan programs and options for the multitude of needs clients have. He is a master at putting the puzzle pieces together ... and makes sure that the loans get closed in a timely manner. I recommend him to all of my clients!
