My husband and I had lived in the same house for 40 years. We'd done a couple of refinance loans but we were totally uninformed about the current mortgage market. We decided to downsize, put our house on the market and started looking for a smaller home. Ted Ark was a godsend! He walked us through the entire process, got us the best mortgage terms and helped with anything and everything. I can't emphasize enough how much we relied onhim and how much he came through for us. I highly recommend golden Mortgage and Ted.

Ted is the best! My husband found Golden Mortgage Corp during an internet search. We first contacted Ted over a year ago, we had some general questions as well as financial questions before applying for a mortgage. We were not yet clients and Ted spoke to us for about 2 hrs. He was so helpful and at the time was not gaining anything from us. When we were ready to start looking for a home we called Ted and we are so glad we did. Ted is extremely knowledgeable, polite, positive, and patient. He always took the time to explain our options and answer any questions we had (even when I called multiply times a day). He knew exactly what mortgage lenders would ask for and had us prepared before the application was even sent out. I was great having someone who had so much knowledge and who you could trust during this process. He kept us calm and positive through one of the most stressful times. I definately recommend Ted and Golden Mortgage Corp! Thank you Ted for everything!

Ted Ark is one of the most professional and customer service oriented person I have ever worked with. I found Ted through a Google search, so naturally, I was hesitant. However, after our initially conversation, I knew my search for a mortgage rep was over. I expressed my unique situation and Ted was understanding and never hesitated to offer assistance. The market is hotter and more competitive than ever, so there were numerous times where I had to request last minute changes to offer letters and pre-approval letters. Needless to say, Ted was always there to save the day. Ted is knowledgable, polite, and has the heart of a teacher. I had many questions along the way, and Ted was always there to educate me with options. After months of searching for homes and losing bidding wars, Ted was able to secure financing on our new home. I'm thrilled that the buying process is over, however, I miss the experience I had working with Ted. I recommend giving Ted Ark a call!

I worked with Ted three years ago when I first bought my home. At that time, he was able to provide me with a great mortgage rate and wonderful service. He was attentive and always followed through. I was surprised back then, I was able to obtain a decent rate since my previous home was sold short three years prior due to a divorce. A couple of months ago, I went back to Golden Mortgage for a second time - to refinance my loan due to the incredibly low interest rates. Again, I had the same great service and felt comfortable having Ted handle everything. I would highly recommend Golden Mortgage.

Ted, I remember like it was yesterday when I pulled over on County Club Road to answer your call. Lisa and I tried for years to get a mortgage after our bankruptcy and foreclosure. We literally called over 30 people and spent many hours being told you'll never get a mortgage for the next three to five years after you build up credit. You proved them all wrong. You could have refused to work with us but you said you could get it done, but you needed Lisa and I to do alot of work as well. Lisa and I made a promise to get everything to you quickly. You worked nights and weekends, calling us sometimes five times a day along with dozens of emails. You made it happen. Today we are homeowners once again and we are forever thankful to you. I would never wish bankruptcy or foreclosure on any family. We lost our home that I physically built and our dignity. Our family went through a very rough patch for some time, but now we can have back what we lost. We can make this our home again.

The Best in the Business - Honest and Delivers! With my wife and I being self-employed, I knew we were facing an uphill battle to obtain a mortgage. After my first call with Ted, in which he spent 45min. reviewing my scenario, I felt very comfortable that he would deliver. Every deadline he promised came through, with not a single delay. He communicated with me regularly regarding the bank's status and took every phone call and email, never making me feel as though I was bothering him. No matter what came up in the process, I always felt as though Ted put my wife and I first and truly cared that we got the home we wanted. I can not say enough about how happy we are to have found Ted and been able to work with him. I highly recommend him for anyone seeking a mortgage.

Ted was excellent, I cannot put in words the difference between him and the many other mortgage brokers I spoke to! The others literally explained nothing, and would kind of blow you off, when you had any sort of question. I recently switched from W2 to 1099 Self-Employed and all they told me was get us a W2 and we'll go from there. Where as when I called Ted he wasn't even sure if he could help me because this was a CO-OP, but he still took 30 minutes of his time and explain the process to me and how to structure my mortgage application properly!! Even though I changed my mind on purchasing something due to increased down payment requirements, he will get my business in the future and many referrals. Where as the other mortgage brokers literally had my business in their hands, and just threw it away. I challenge anyone to go speak with other brokers to see the difference, it's incomparable.

Ted is one of the Mortgage broker that my buyer agent Alice referred to me when I was searching and purchasing my home. He is awesome! Especially when I am shopping around, and did comparison with other lender my attorney referred. Ted is very knowledgeable and also very professional broker. As a first time home buyer, we have no idea the entire process would be, he spoke with us on the phone about an hour, explained to us every things we need to know in detail while we planning our purchasing. He is very patient to us as well, never rush us to make decision but when we have questions he always response very quick. He also helped us by writing letter explain why my wife have a 2 year career gap to convince the lender bank approve the loan.(She lived in Hawaii with me as Army Spouse and preparing her CPA exam while I was stationed there). He gave us countless help and wise advise during the entire process which save us a lot of money and time. I would definitely recommend Ted
