After struggling to refi my condo for the past year I was referred to Cisco. Being a small business owner presented a number of unique challenges, but none that couldn't be handled in a timely and professional manner. Cisco was patient, professional, and on top of every detail through this whole process. It goes without saying that he has the best rates in Colorado, but more than that he has the right touch in difficult situations.

Cisco Quintero is a "can do" mortgage broker. We had a difficult and complicated refinance that other brokers said couldn't be funded. Not only did Cisco get it done at a very low rate, but he did it in a very professional manner, with a positive attitude, and he always communicated with us every step of the way. He even went out of his way to clear up some credit issues on our behalf. The entire experience was stress free. We highly recommend Cisco! Thanks Much,

Simply stated, Cisco Quintero exceeded our expectations in finding and securing a home loan for us. Not only did Cisco negotiate terms with the lender that were more favorable than we ever dreamed of (especially given we are both self-employed), but he also obtained approval for our loan well before our closing date in a time when lenders are especially demanding. I would recommend Cisco without any reservations and truly appreciate his level of service and professionalism in helping us achieve our dream of owning a home in Boulder.

Boulder Residential Lending —
Cisco's Perspective

I've been financing Boulder homes since 2007 — through market booms, rate spikes, and everything in between. What I've learned is that the Front Range buyer deserves more than a one-size-fits-all approach.

If you're a first-time buyer in South Boulder or Gunbarrel, FHA or conventional financing gets you in the door with the lowest upfront cost. If you're self-employed — like many Boulder professionals — a bank statement loan lets your actual cash flow speak instead of your tax returns. And if you're an investor building a rental portfolio in the mountains, a DSCR loan qualifies on the property's income, not yours.

Here's what I tell every client: match the loan to your life situation. Run your scenario with me and I'll show you exactly what you qualify for, what it costs, and how fast we can close. No pressure. No runaround. Just straight answers from someone who lives here and knows this market.
