This review is long overdue! We had the pleasure to work with Jose Luis and we had the best experience! We got denied the first time with another mortgage company and got referred to RAzone Mortgage.

I knew this was going to be very stressful but honestly he kept us calm the entire time and made it possible for us to be in our new home!. We will de
After 2 months of a frustrating escrow process dealing with a mortgage company that made me miss my closing date my loan got switched to RAzone and I worked with Mitchell Sima directly. He never missed a single call of mine and answered any questions I had.

Great mortgage partner ! Jose Luis Rasilla truly knows how to get a loan done with accuracy and in a timely manner. I've never seen a lender waiting on escrow. Working with Jose was a pleasure.

I highly recommend Greg Falzone along with his team at RAZone Mortgage. Greg had all the answers when I wasn't sure if I could make a home purchase a reality. I was originally starting the loan process with another lender, but they did not show any urgency and took a while with responding, so I tried Greg and he was ready to help out immediately. He gave me some tips on what to prepare for and was very helpful in other questions I had regarding Prop 19 and supplemental taxes. Thanks again to everyone at RAZ
A big shout out to Greg Falzone and his team for helping make the refinancing process as painless as possible.

In addition to his professionalism, Greg is knowledgeable, attentive, and perhaps most important of all, trustworthy. I highly recommend Greg and his team

Everyone I dealt with was nice and understanding. Got my mortgage approved at a great rate as well to top the icing! Thank you Greg, Sophia, and the rest of the team!
I'm writing this from the living room of my new house, and right about now Jose Luis is my favorite person. We were preapproved through another mortgage company for our new home purchase, but our realtor mentioned that sometimes big factory like mortgage companies can drop the ball and be impersonal. He asked us to consider using someone he worked with closely whom he knew was reliable: Jose Luis. When Jose Luis told us he could match the rate we'd gotten from the other company, we figured we had nothing to
I would like to let everyone know that the people at RAzone Mortgage Group are some of the best Mortgage lenders I have had the opportunity to work with. In the past 2 years I have been through 3 or 4 other lenders until I was introduced to Greg at RAzone. The people at RAzone are extremely knowledgeable and they get things done. I had problems with other lenders with being able to understand how my school district works in providing how much money I made and Greg was able to take the information they g
I can't say enough good things about Jos? Luis! A true professional who goes above and beyond for his clients. My wife and I spoke to a few banks in regards to a loan, however nobody was able to provide us with the security and confidence Jos? Luis was able to. Throughout the whole process we were informed and had constant updates. Any question we had was answered in great detail and we felt confident throughout the process of purchasing our first home. Thank you Jos? Luis and the staff at the Razone Mortga
I was one week in escrow when I decided to switch lenders as I was not happy with my then current lender. I was recommended Jose Luis and the RAZone Mortgage Group from my agent (Fernando Capacete) and it was the best decision I made. It truly was a blessing as Jose provided me the best rate but a country mile. Our first contact through phone, he explained to me in great detail the plans he laid out, and Jose was very reassuring and the confidence that resonated in his voice, I knew I made the right decisi
What can I say, but a big THANK YOU to Greg and his team!!!! They were so fast at getting us our new home. Greg walked me through all of the loan process took my calls and emails and explained everything so well. No question was a dumb questions when asked. He was very true to his word and worked to get us the best possible rate. We put in our offer on 11/17 and we closed on 12/8/2020. Our family is truly grateful for the quick work Greg and his team have done. We will be able to start off the new year in
I highly recommend Greg Falzone at RAZone Mortgage. Greg made the home loan process easy to navigate. The service, professionalism, honesty and communication I received was top tier. Greg went the extra mile to make sure my dream of home ownership became a reality.
Amazing service at RAzone. I knew from our first call that Jose Luis was going to be the right lender to work with. He answered all of our questions throughly and promptly. We were given a 35 day window to close and everything was complete with more than two weeks to spare. His attention to detail was very important to us and we were very happy with his services.
Greg Falzone was so supportive. He guided my home refinance every step of the way. He made sure all my questions were answered and we closed super fast. Everything was so easy and user friendly, from the application to the signing of loan docs and funding. Great customer service. I highly recommend his expertise and plan on using him again for another real estate project in the future. You can't go wrong with Greg Falzone.
Jose Luis Rasilla was absolutely God sent! My wife and I had a roller coaster of a time with a previous lender for about 7 months which was extremely stressful and we began to think that we were not going to land the house after being told on numerous occasions that we were good to go. We were then recommended to Jose Rasilla at RAzone Mortage group. I was a bit skeptical after being told for so many months had pass of complete let downs. However, Jose literally turn everything around for my wife and I in 3

There was constant communication during the entire process. He kept us updated on the progress of our loan the entire time. We appreciate the hard work he put in to get us the rate and type of loan we wanted. We recommend working with Greg Falzone at RAzone Morgage Group, and we would definitely work with him again.
Recently, my sister and i completed a home loan purchase. And Mitchell helped a great deal. In partnership with our amazing Realtor Emma Gaeta. Mitchell really had patience and was so informative every step of the way. Truly appreciate everyone?s hard work.
I will really highly recommend this company's services. Jose Luis really knows how to make things happen. I appreciate you. Thank you all. It's been a great pleasure.
Let me start off by saying that I consider myself a picky person. So to find the right person to help you with something so major in your life (Like the purchase or refi of a home), Greg has never disappoint. I've worked with him 3 times in the past (2 purchases, 1 Refi) and all three times have been smooth sailing. Always closed escrow on time (even earlier than expected on my last purchase). Greg was in constant communication with me during the process and always answered my questions and concerns at any
when we were in middle of process to get a bank loan to buy the home we chose. Mr Greg Falzone was referred to us after we almost gave up. Despite we have an extensive excellent history with JPMorgan chase bank, we were offered lower amount of a loan from Chase Bank with poor customer service. Greg has been cooperative, caring, honest and truthful. He worked with us for our benefit. Mr. Falzone has been accurate and we just today are closing on time. We are so blessed and lucky that we have an amazing exp
I highly recommend Greg Falzone at RAzone Mortgage group. Greg has helped me refi twice, and both experiences were amazing. He worked with me to get the best available rate, communicated with transparency each step of the process. Anyone looking for mortgage services should contact Greg Falzone.
Jose and his team helped us tremendously and got us approved for our home loan when others wouldn't. Thank you Jose for being very patient, keeping us up to date with the process and working out problems that kept popping up. We really appreciate you guys for your hard work and hope to work with you again in the future.
I can't say enough positive things about Greg, Micheline, and the entire Razone team ! Aside from the best rate BY FAR, what really stood out was the service. The level of care, attention to detail, and professionalism demonstrated by Greg and his team far surpassed my expectations. I really appreciated Greg?s honesty and transparency throughout the entire process. His team stays on top of every detail and is there for you every step of the way to answer any questions and address any concerns. I can't recom
Jose Luis Rasilla and Greg Falzone have been helping me with my refinancing since 2016. They have the best customer service I have ever experienced. They are prompt and keep me informed step by step. Jose and Greg are continuously looking out for my best interest and not just in it for a quick buck. I would highly recommend Razone Mortage Group for any of your refinancing needs. Truly someone you can trust and rely on.
These guys rock! Being a first time home buyer i always heard horror stories about lending and going into escrow, but we didn't experience any of that! Greg is incredibly knowledgeable and honest and really hustles for you! He knew exactly what to expect at every step along the way and would explain it to me and answer my questions before I could even ask them! I wouldn't hesitate to give them my business again, I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend them!
Jose and team went BEYOND the call of duty for our latest home purchase. To say our particular transaction was complicated doesn't even scratch the surface. COVID-19 going on, me being furloughed from work, challenging conditions from the seller, etc. Still, despite its complexities, Jose was able to work his magic, jumped through an unbelievable amount of hoops, wouldn't take no for an answer, and wouldn't give up until he saw us through to the finish line. Plus, he didn't just get us past the finish line,
Refinance went smoothly and handled professionally in record time. All my questions were answered at every step of the process, by phone, email. I didn't have to play phone tag, as Greg always called back, let me know when he was in a meeting or on another call or just busy he couldn't call me that very moment. His staff was friendly and patient, helped me get through snags and over humps along the way. I highly recommend this company's services.
Definitely will recommend Jose Luis Rasilla. He's the one that guided us and made sure that our home loan will go smoothly. He was there every step of the way. Professional, honest and approachable. He's always there to answer and explain everything we ask and everything we needed to know. And of course, kudos to the great team that were also instrumental in this transaction. Shoutout to Sophia too.
I came to Jose Luis for my home purchase as I am self employed and I was concerned that the loan would be a paperwork nightmare because of all my LLCs that I'm a part of. He reviewed my income and financials and devised a plan to keep it all simple and straightforward. I got approved in 24 hours with very limited conditions. Because of this crazy real estate market, we had to waive our loan contingency so it was extremely important that I not only get my loan approved but that we closed on time as well. We
I went through a hard process with my first lender who was rocket mortgage which ended up being a nightmare. I was referred to Jos? and he made my home buying process amazing on the lending side of things. Appreciate the Razone Mortgage Group team, I highly recommend!!!

Mitchell was helpful and answered every question I had. He always kept me updated and reminded me of what needed to be done. Very professional and great communication skills.
Greg did an awesome job had me pre-approved 1 day and closed Escrow in 45 days. The best thing about him was the communication between us and the real estate agent Fernando Capacete.
RAzone was so easy to work with....all of them! Everything was done quickly and went so smooth. They were thorough and efficient and very courteous! I would definitely go with them again!
Refi done, funded in record time. They processed my request pro-actively, from start to finish without delays. I am extremely satisfied with the staff's professionalism, friendliness and timely response in processing the loan.

Look for a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) license, which ensures they’ve passed rigorous exams and meet state requirements. Check for relevant experience in your industry, additional certifications like CFA or CMA, and membership in professional organizations like the AICPA. Verify their credentials through state licensing boards.
Use online directories like the AICPA, CPAverify, or state CPA societies. Search platforms like Yelp or Google for local CPAs with reviews. Ask for referrals from business associates, friends, or financial advisors. Local chambers of commerce can also provide recommendations.
A CPA is a licensed professional who has passed the CPA exam and met state requirements for education and experience. An accountant may lack this certification and could have varying levels of expertise. For complex tasks like tax audits or financial reporting, a CPA is typically more qualified.
Ask about their experience with your specific financial needs, such as tax preparation, small business accounting, or estate planning. Review their website or LinkedIn for case studies or client testimonials. Inquire about their client base to ensure they handle similar financial situations.
Yes, reviews provide insight into a CPA’s reliability, communication, and performance. Check platforms like Google, Yelp, or the Better Business Bureau for client feedback. Look for patterns in reviews, but verify their authenticity, as some may be biased or outdated.
Visit your state’s Board of Accountancy website or use CPAverify.org to check a CPA’s license status. Confirm their license is active and check for any disciplinary actions or complaints. This ensures they’re in good standing and meet professional standards.
Ask about their experience with your financial needs, fee structure, availability, and communication style. Inquire how they handle tax filings, audits, or financial planning. Ask for references or examples of similar work to assess their expertise and fit.
Fees vary based on location, services, and complexity. Basic tax preparation may cost $150-$500, while business accounting or audits can range from $1,000 to $10,000+. Request a detailed fee structure upfront and compare quotes from multiple CPAs.
Yes, many CPAs offer remote services through secure online platforms for document sharing and virtual consultations. Ensure they use encrypted tools for data security. Remote CPAs can be effective if they understand your local tax laws or business regulations.
During consultations, evaluate their ability to explain complex financial concepts clearly. Ask sample questions about taxes or financial strategies and note their responsiveness and clarity. Good communication ensures you understand their advice and fosters a productive relationship.
Beware of CPAs who guarantee specific tax refunds, lack a valid license, or have disciplinary actions on record. Avoid those with poor communication, vague fee structures, or negative reviews highlighting unethical behavior. Always verify their credentials independently.
Large firms offer more resources and specialized teams but may charge higher fees. Solo practitioners often provide personalized service and lower costs but may have limited availability. Choose based on your needs, budget, and preference for personalized attention.
For individuals, annual meetings for tax preparation may suffice. Businesses may need quarterly or monthly check-ins for bookkeeping, tax planning, or financial reporting. Discuss your needs upfront to establish a meeting schedule that aligns with your financial goals.
Yes, many CPAs handle both, but confirm their expertise in both areas. Ask about their experience managing personal taxes and business accounting simultaneously. Ensure they can balance both without compromising attention to your specific financial needs.
Discuss concerns directly with your CPA to resolve issues. If unresolved, check your contract for termination terms. Seek a new CPA by researching reviews, credentials, and referrals. Request your financial records to ensure a smooth transition to a new professional.
