“Jim Hoge and The Seattle Mortgage Planners Team were, hands down, the best part of our real estate experience. We were first-time homebuyers who knew NOTHING about buying a home. Jim walked us through every question we had, in detail... I truly cannot say enough great things about Jim. If you are a first-time homebuyer, looking for an FHA loan, or even a conventional one… Jim is your man!”

— Aaron B. Seattle, WA

“Jim Hoge and his team provided us with THE BEST refinance ever! Seattle Mortgage Planners are consummate professionals and made the process so easy and stress-free. If you are looking for no a no nonsense lender with great depth of knowledge and an easy-going, no pressure style, you have come to the right place... Please call Jim. I promise you will be extremely glad you did.”

— Miss W. Issaquah, WA

“We chose Jim Hoge and his team via Yelp after reviewing lots of reviews, and we’re super pleased that we did. This is actually the second time I’ve gotten a new mortgage, and this experience is by far smoother and easier despite being more complicated than my first loan... We highly recommend Jim and his team!”

— Jess Z. Redmond, WA

“…Jim did an excellent job of calming any concerns we had, answering our millions of questions, and giving us a lot of options to choose from when thinking about how we wanted to structure our loan... The ability to submit all of our documentation online and email with any questions we had was incredible... I would highly recommend Jim and his team to first home buyers or anyone trying to 'get an edge' in this competitive market.”

— Sydney B. Lynnwood, WA

“I’ve dealt with a handful of mortgage brokers and firms and Jim and Kevin were far and above the easiest and most professional I’ve dealt with. Jim is transparent and willing to work hard to gain your business even when pitted up against a very competitive offer as was our case with a new build. I couldn’t recommend SMP more!”
