We have always enjoyed working with Josh. Recently we referred our son to Josh for a refinance of his home. Obviously, we would not have done that if we were not pleased with what Josh has accomplished for us.

Jeff & Kathy Mickelsen - Herriman, UT

This was the second time I had the pleasure of working with Josh, and I certainly hope it will not be the last. No number or degree of superlatives could adequately describe his exceptional professionalism, can-do attitude, attention to detail, accessibility, and work ethic. Whenever even the slightest problem or issue arose, Josh simply did not rest until the problem was solved, and he usually solved it before I even had a chance to return his phone call. Josh is the consummate loan officer and professional.

Greg S. Owens - Salt Lake City, UT

Our experience with Josh Mettle could not have been better. The purchase date of our new home and the closing date on the sale of our old home created a very tight time line. Josh's experience and expertise made the transition flawless. He kept us informed during each step of the process and was more than willing to answer all of our questions. This included a thorough line by line explanation of all financial documents. Additionally, Josh was able to monitor current market trends and lock us into a mortgage rate that was below what we expected. I would highly recommend Josh Mettle and the team at Citywide Home Loans to any prospective home buyer.

Rand Stover - Riverton, UT

Both Gary and I were very impressed with the way our mortgage was handled. Josh explained everything to us, it has been over 30 years since we had our last mortgage, so we had a lot of questions.

We appreciated the way you and Josh handled all of the paperwork for us, We also felt that Chantel Markel went out of her way to meet with us and help us in anyway possible. I would definitely send any referrals to Josh as well as Chantel. Mark Jones also went out of his way to help us as well.

Thanks so much for all of your help, you made the experience a good one.

Gary & Susan Friede - St. George, UT

I/We would be happy to comment on our experience with Josh Mettle. Josh was great! He never avoided any of our calls or put us off. Whenever we had any questions or concerns he did address them. We had to trust in Josh that he truly was getting the loan that would best benefit us since he has all the experience in this field. We feel he did that. At closing everything was as Josh had told us. No surprises. When we decided to we are ready to downsize we will definitely have Josh involved in the process. There is no question, if we know someone who is wanting to finance or refinance their home Josh Mettle's name will definitely be entered into the conversation. We do have one other request of Josh, we would like a couple of his business cards. This way we can refer him and give out his card. Bob does this with our insurance agent to. Since my husband is in the car business, he comes in contact with a lot of people. If the opportunity presents itself he will hand out one of our insurance agents cards and just tell them call him and see if he can benefit you. He would be happy to do the same for Josh.

Tery Davis - Utah

My experience with Josh has always been a positive experience when dealing with refinancing. He has always made it as stress free as a refinance can be. He will always be the first one to be referred to my family & friends; I have the up most trust in Josh on his knowledge & advice. I wouldn't work with anyone else other than Josh.

Also thank you all so much for the smooth transition on my refinancing, we appreciate you all for your hard work.

Shelly & Marc Anderson - Sandy, UT

Working with Josh was wonderful. He is very considerate and he worked very hard on getting the best interest rate. I have been to Josh twice and I will go again when and if the time comes. It has been a pleasure working with team. As far as referrals I will honestly work on that.

Thank you for a job well done.

Lisa & Ardith Stephensen - Salt Lake City, UT

I do appreciate you taking the time to inquire on the service my husband and I received during the refinance on our home loan. I really enjoyed working with Josh he was so nice to answer all of my questions and I especially liked how quickly he responded to them. I would definitely work with him again on any mortgagee endeavors we decided to do in the future.

Everything seemed to work out great for us and without any problems or glitches which is so nice.

Thank you again for the great customer service and for all your advice!

Katy Bangerter - Taylorsville, UT

To all Future Home Owners,

Working with Josh and David to obtain our recent mortgage was almost too good to be true.  It was lots of work providing all of the documentation, but there was never a time when we could not get a question answered.  All inquiries received prompt attention, and we always felt like Josh had time to talk with.

We mortgaged our first home in 1973 and have closed on several mortgages in years since then.  This is the first mortgage that we truly felt a part of.  Rather than providing the necessary information and waiting to hear back we were kept apprised of where the paperwork was in the system, what came next, and what was still needed.  From the first meeting Josh to closing on our home was 22 calendar days. 

We are sold on Josh Mettle and his team.  They will have all of our future business.  We will refer everyone we know who is in the market for a mortgage to them.

Roger and Susan Rugg - South Jordan, UT

Thanks for all your work!  You and your team were professional, punctual and kept me in the loop in every step of the loan process.  I knew exactly what to expect from start to finish and was also impressed that you were there for my closing!

 

Kudos to you and your team!!

 

Sincerely,

 

Kevin Hughes

Kevin Hughes - South Jordan, UT

I have just finished refinancing my home through Josh Mettle. I was referred to him through an old client of his. I am so glad that I followed through with the referral. Josh and his whole refinance team where great. The timing from contacting Josh and funding was so smooth and FAST. Josh and his team were there to answer any little question I had. And trust me I am full of them. Josh is very informative and sends you very useful information. Thanks again!

Matt Eckman & Cassie Yocom - Taylorsville, UT

Our experience with Josh has always been wonderful. He always keeps in touch with us by sending mailers each month. We have now been working with Josh Mettle for almost 6 years. He always answers his cell phone and is willing to help answer any questions that arise. He was very prompt in getting back with us on what was needed for this refinance. He sent out the appraisers within the same week of discussing our plans to refinance our home mortgage. Josh has always been someone we would refer to anyone and everyone who mentions wanting to buy a house or refinance. He is very honest and straight forward. We have never played the runaround game with Josh. We would like to thank Josh for all of his hard work and honesty...qualities that are hard to come by these days.

Jay and Heidi Hortin - Salt Lake City, UT

I am happy to comment about my experience with Josh. I have closed 3 loans with Josh. I was a first time buyer and Josh walked me through the complete loan process. He was very helpful, informative and patient. Since I knew nothing about mortgages at the time, he made the experience very pleasant and less confusing for me. On my last refinancing, Josh was just as wonderful! He provides great service to his customers. I have also enjoyed is attitude through all of the mortgages. He is positive and encouraging no matter what issues my come up during the loan process. I am so pleased with my experience. I have referred a couple of friends to him to aid in their home buying process. I will continue to refer my family and friends to him in the future.

Thanks so much to Josh and his staff!

Cortnee Morgan - Herriman, UT

I found the refinancing experience with Josh a pleasant low stress experience. He is very professional and up to speed on all of the current financing options. Once I gave him the requested material to complete my refinance plan, all I had to do is wait for the closing date. I feel that he really worked hard to get me the best deal out there for my situation. He truly lives by his motto of 'Say what you do. Do what you say. No surprises.' Thanks for all your help.

Jim Ercanbrack - Riverton, UT

Josh has always been very informative and clear about the lending process, including rates, loan packages and timelines. He always answered questions and returned phone calls in a timely manner and never seemed frustrated with us when we wanted to see a new Good Faith Estimate based on different rates or packages and would even send them over email after the work day was done. We felt confident that we were able to get the best loan available based on his watch of the market each day and his access to information from multiple lending sites.

Buying a home lends itself to a process that can be frustrating and tedious. There were moments that felt irritating because of the underwriting process and although we did take our frustration out on anyone who would listen, we understand that the lending requirements and regulations were to blame for the frustration and not any person who was involved in purchase of this home. Josh was always quick to help us understand the reasons behind the issues we ran into and never got irritated with us when we felt frustrated. He really did do a great job and we appreciate him for his patience with us.

I would be happy to refer people to Josh. I don't know anyone in the market to buy a home right now but will pass along his information whenever I can.

Kirsten and Vinay Tulsian - Salt Lake City, UT

Our experience with Josh and his team was very pleasant and surprisingly much less stressful than I expected. Josh was very professional and pleasant anytime we talked with him. Although he used the rest of his team to assist him he was always personally available for our needs and responded quickly if we could not get a hold of him the first time. I truly was surprised how smoothly things went especially since this was our first home purchase. Everyone on his team was accommodating and did most of the leg work to get our loan processed and funded. I feel like they went above and beyond my expectations. Overall our experience was really very pleasant.

Andrea McCloy - Draper, UT

My experience with Josh and having used him before was quite enjoyable. We had no glitches in the processing and my wife and I are very pleased with his honesty and ability to work the loan rate out. He also keeps us informed with his monthly newsletter. The newsletter keeps us up to speed on the changes going on in the market as well as things we might need to think about relative to taxes.

As far as referrals, I have already given Josh two referrals (Vince Rocco and Dave Nichols) who are associates from work. I will continue to pass on anyone that might be interested in buying or refinancing.

Thanks for your help in getting our deal closed.

Ed & Kathi Buksas - South Jordan, UT

Josh came highly recommended by a friend so I had very high expectations for him. I felt at ease with Josh since the beginning because he first explained all of the details about the different loans and everything else that a buyer, a first time buyer in my case, should know. So I had a good background of information to begin with. After knowing my needs, he explained what the best type of loans was for me and explained the process ahead. I really felt like I knew what was happening at every step of the process and he was readily available to answer any questions I had. This made the whole experience way less stressful and more exciting. I was also very impressed with his staff. They were very friendly, prompt and efficient. Josh and his team met and exceeded my expectations in every way. Thanks!

Martha Mandujano - Midvale, UT

Working with Josh was great! He was always very nice, no matter how many questions I had, and was always VERY prompt at returning phone calls and emails! After experience with someone who was trying to rip us off, it was nice working with someone who knew what they were doing and getting us a great deal! I have already told people I know to use him! And we will also use him in the future!

Brad & Hope Nordberg - Riverton, UT

The reasons we use Josh and his lending team abound. But the most straight forward answer is that we know he delivers. We tell him what we want to do, and he suggests the best route. No back and forth phone calls, no unexpected changes, no delays. I always tell people who are interested, ‘Call Josh, we tell him what we want, and it's done’.

I will always do anything I can to get him a new client.

Simply put, when I have Josh and the team on the job, I know it will get done, every time.

Working with JML Team is painless.

Colby & Zoe Dyksman - Utah

My mortgage experience was fantastic. It’s never seemed that easy to buy a house. Josh’s knowledge is incredible. It was nice being able to call him and get answers right then and there! Every step of the process was as easy as I could have hoped for it to be. He does a great job keeping you informed with daily or weekly phone calls. My agent Tammy was also great to work with. Working with all of you I didn’t feel like I did much but sit back and sign.

I would be more than happy to send any referral your way. Matter of fact I have already started!! Thanks again.

Jason McKnight - Salt Lake City, UT

Thank you so much! We appreciate all of your help in getting us this house!
 
Also, thank you for the link to view our house! That is awesome that you guys did that! We will be sure to refer people to you guys that are trying to buy or sell.
 
Thanks again, and have a great day!

Allyssa Webb & Clint Thurgood - Salt Lake City, UT

Thank you so much for all your help with our construction loan and our long term mortgage.  You really know your job well and made us feel like we were your most important customers.  We know we got the best rate because of your skills and knowledge.  You are wonderful and we just wanted to say thanks for everything.  We will definitely recommend you to our friends and family.

Jason and Keri Miner - American Fork, UT

Josh,

The Terry's loved you.  They said all future referrals of friends are you and me 100%.

Thanks man-  Good Job-

David and Diane Terry - Salt Lake City, UT

I will definitely refer Josh to everyone I know, because I know we could never have gotten through the loan process without his help. Buying a home is incredibly stressful and difficult because of the responsibility the buyer is agreeing to take on, but Josh’s integrity helped us through the entire process from beginning to end.  Thank you Josh!  And thank you to all of those who worked so hard to help us qualify and receive a home loan—we are so thankful to everyone involved.  Thank you for helping us to achieve our dream of homeownership.

Thanks

Kristen and Benjamin Smith - Salt Lake City, UT

Thank you so much for all you have done to get us into our dream home.  Both you and David did an excellent job of keeping us informed and comfortable with all of the financial information.  We truly appreciate all of your hard work.

Thank you again,

Diane Terry - Salt Lake City, UT

I have used Josh Mettle for the purchase of three homes over the past three years, one of which was my first home purchase. Prior to Josh I worked with two other mortgage brokers of which I was not impressed with their ability to clearly explain the loan process or details that I felt were important for me to understand. My experience has been much different with josh because no matter how simple or insignificant my questions were he was very willing to spend the time to explain to me details. After a number of times of working with Josh I referred him to my friends and family who have expressed to me their frustrations with other brokers. At no surprise every one of my friends and family has had nothing but an excellent experience stories to tell. If you are looking for an excellent broker who you can trust and expect to walk away from a closing with no surprises, I would highly recommend Josh Mettle with City Wide Home Loans.

Donavon Minnis, Okland Construction - Salt Lake City, UT

I am extremely happy with my experience with my current home purchase. We wandered in to the Ivory model hoping to get a look at the plan I had been looking at online. Wid was very helpful with information on the Ivory townhomes at Highbury. We fell in love with one of the manager special units. Wid then went on to highly recommend Josh as a mortgage broker who he trusted completely. He said that Josh would do his best for us and keep us informed of progress.

Wid understated how very good Josh and his team are. I have been frustrated in the past with other mortgage brokers I have worked with because there were frequent delays and problems. With Josh and his team they told me what to expect upfront. They promised to keep in touch and did so. When additional information was needed that might have delayed things they promptly requested the information and made sure that it was correct. In fact we even closed earlier than Josh originally estimated. I will definitely use Josh and his team for any future mortgage needs and refer all my friends and family to him for their needs. Thanks Josh, David and Jeanmarie.

Stephanie Mason - West Valley City, UT

Josh was great, Things went well. I have and will refer to him.

Toni Hawkins - Salt Lake City, UT

My Mortgage experience with Josh and his team:

First of all, I would like to thank Josh and his team for following through all of the hoops required to get my loan refinanced in these trying times.

I received a complete list of all of the items needed in order to complete the refinance.

I responded with all items on the list very quickly and received quick answers to any questions that I had.

I was always just an e-mail or telephone call away from the answers to any questions regarding my loan.

The team was persistent in working to get a perfect lender for my loan and I always had great service no matter which team member that I was working with.

It was important to me to be able to know the fees required in advance and be comfortable with my closing and to have it completed as projected.

I would definitely refer anyone looking for a finance or refinance to Josh Mettle and his lending team.

 

Sincerely,

Words cannot describe how appreciative I am of all that Josh and his team have done for me and my family!  I have worked with Josh on multiple refinances as well as a new mortgage over the last 7 years and he has always taken the time needed with me to make sure things are done correctly and that I'm pleased with the outcome.  Even in my hardest times of life, Josh helped to coach me and provide guidance to improve my situation to be able to get our dream home. I have also referred multiple friends and family to Josh who have thanked me after their experience since the service provided definitely exceeded their expectations.  Hands down, his team is the only place I would send the ones I love!

 

Thanks you again Josh and team for keeping me sane during all of the trials we've gone through in getting our home and standing by our side until the end no matter how crazy things got!  We couldn't have done it without you!  Your team is truly the quality of people I wish everyone was and I will be forever in your debt for making our dreams come true!

 

Sincerely,

I am very pleased to recommend the Josh Mettle Lending Team. In fact I already have promoted you to one of my friends. Expect more to come.

Alydia and I are delighted with the high level of service we received. I approached Josh at the recommendation of my friend Kent Whipple. We were in a difficult situation with excellent credit scores but two variables that made this a tricky transaction. Josh listened patiently then dug into my case with expertise and optimism. It took some doing but Josh stayed on the job until he got me the loan I wanted and at an even better rate than I had hoped for. Josh is a total rock star!

Our closing experience was wonderful as well. Every touch point with your team was top notch professional. We are raving fans!

Brad & Alydia Barton - Ogden, UT

Doing business with Josh has been a pleasure. He has always been there for any questions that come up, and is always quick to return my calls. I have always felt he gives honest advice, and really knows his business. We enjoy his news letters he sends out too. He made this refinance very easy on my part. I will gladly refer my friends and family to Josh, as I have done in the past.

Stella Wordelman - Salt Lake City, UT

I have to say that I could not be happier with my mortgage experience with Josh. He came highly recommended but I still shopped around for bids and Josh was not the lowest as far as origination fees but I chose him anyway because he said to me, 'I sell integrity and therefore I do not discount my points'. I liked that answer. From that point on everything was smooth sailing. Very little paperwork and very few documents were needed. I received at closing exactly what Josh had promised, no surprises. I have never had an easier mortgage loan experience.

I will recommend him to anyone in need of mortgage services.

Julie Martinez - Salt Lake City, UT

Working with Josh Mettle's team to refinance our house was a painless act that save us thousands over the life of our loan, plus we were able to take out a bunch of money for home improvements to add to the comfort of our life. We had issues that surfaced in the loan process because of my recent divorce, but they did most everything for me and delivered the loan as promised. I will never work with another loan team, they had won our business for a lifetime.

Steve Denton - Salt Lake City, UT

Josh did a phenomenal job interacting with me as his client. He was ALWAYS right on-point and knowledgeable. But more importantly, he possesses the skill sets to explain the landscape in a way that makes sense to someone who doesn’t deal in these transactions everyday. Further, he always answers his phone and gets back immediately on requests. My transaction seemed more complex than most, and it had some unexpected surprises, including a significant error from an underwriter which made the transaction even more stressful. Through the entire process, Josh was the voice of reason and the knowledgeable subject matter expert that I needed in my corner to successfully navigate the unexpected surprises.

In every way, Josh exceeded my expectations for the service and support he provided on my mortgage transaction.

I’ve already referred him to my friend Spencer Cannon, who currently is the only person I know immediately in the market for a home mortgage. But rest assured that when the moment arises, I will certainly refer my friends, colleagues, and associates to Josh for their mortgage loan needs.

Justin Calapp, Ph.D. - Utah

It is easy to write about Josh and my experience with Citywide Home Loans. When I first started contemplating buying Paige’s home I had literally no idea how to buy a house! I didn't know where to begin or who to call. I asked Paige who she had dealt with before and she had Josh's card available and I made the call! Josh was very friendly, caring, and answered my questions to my understanding. Believe me, I am a true novice at this. You both made this so incredibly easy and PAINLESS. Thank you for such great service! I will recommend you to my friends!

Lynda Davies - Midvale, UT

My experience with Josh and his team was great.  During this time when lending can be difficult, Josh and his team went the extra mile for us in order to not only get our loan approved and funded but to get us a great rate in the process.  The loan process was frustrating at times but Josh was quick to address our concerns and put us at ease.  Thank you, Josh and team for your efforts and we love our new home.

Of course I will pass your name along for reference to any friends and family that may be in need of a home loan.

Thanks again.

Stu Segura - Highland, UT

We really appreciate the quick response from Josh and David regarding our recent mortgage. On day one, when we needed a pre-approval from Josh for an offer we wanted to make on a home, Josh was awesome. We were talking to him on the phone at 9:30pm trying to fill out a loan application. By the time we got home we had a pre-approval waiting in e-mail. We felt like we were being taken care of and the details were not being overlooked or put aside. We have worked with other lenders in the past and had some bad experiences. We did expect to have the same experience this time, but was pleasantly surprised at the efficiency Josh and David worked under. Time was a critical factor with this purchase and Josh got the job done.

Skylar did a good job as well. Because time was a critical factor, we feel he did everything he could to help the process along. He made himself available whenever we needed him. He also referred us to Josh, which ended up being a great experience overall. We will refer others to Skylar's services as well in the future.

Keith & Erica Huntsman - West Jordan, UT

I would say that my refinance experience with Josh was a positive one.  It seemed that there were some "bumps" in my situation and Josh worked through them and we got it done.  Thank you, both, for everything you did to get my home refinanced. 
 
I don't know of anyone who I can refer to you at this point for business.  But if I hear of anyone, I will give my referrals to you. 

Thank you again.

Jerrilee Criddle - Sandy, UT

Skylar and Josh were so great to work with! We put them through a lot and yet they stuck it out with us. I appreciate all that they went through to get us into this home. I know Josh not only spent time on us but he spent his own money to get us into our home. I appreciate that and know that any other person would not do that. Thank you guys for all that you have done for us. We love our new home and we love the fact that we will not be paying someone else's mortgage! Thank you again and believe me I have told everyone I know about Josh and how wonderful he was to work with. I do hope that they will call him soon.
