About

I started my career in 1989 as a property manager. I thought I wanted to be a Realtor but I ended up being drawn to lending and have made it my career. I did try my hand at selling real estate in 1995 when I moved to Sonoma County. It was a great experience and I learned a lot but I went back to lending and that is where I feel comfortable and where I have stayed.

My office is on the edge of downtown Sebastopol and I have lived in western Sonoma County since 1995. Most of my business is referred to me, give me a cal and find out why.

Richard Von Sternberg Other

I am a Sonoma County Realtor who refers clients to Hans who need a loan to make a purchase. Hans has the deep knowledge of the lending scene that comes only with years of experience, which, of course, Hans has. I recommend Hans because I know that my clients are in good hands when they connect with him.

Hans is great to work with. Professional and thorough, if Hans says he can do the loan then I know he can. He has helped my clients get into some great loans. Thanks Hans, see you soon!

I have two words that describes Hans "The Best". He gets the job done, finds the best loan for the clients needs, keeps everyone informed every step of the way, and always is available for emails, texts, and phone calls. This is why I can say if you work with Hans you are working with "The Best" .
