With over 10 years closing VA loans and investment properties across six states, I deliver fast approvals and clear guidance. I originate financing that veterans, first-time buyers, and real estate investors trust.
I’ve spent over 10 years helping veterans, first-time homebuyers, and real estate investors get financing when other lenders said no. I specialize in VA loans, FHA loans, and investor financing, and I’ve built my reputation solving the problems most professionals overlook.
As a mortgage professional at Vintage Lending, I’m not tied to one lender’s products. That means I shop your loan across multiple lenders to find the rate and terms that actually fit your situation, then I stay as your single point of contact from application to closing.
My clients back that up. I’m five star rated on both Google and Zillow, and I take pride in earning that trust on every loan. Whether you’re buying your first home in Denver, refinancing in San Diego, or picking up an investment property in Fresno, I’m here to make it happen.
Stats / Highlights

I worked with Steven Hunt on purchasing our home in San Diego, and I’m really glad we had him on our side. The whole process was pretty stressful, especially with the tight timeline, but he helped us navigate everything step by step. We ended up closing in just 21 days, which felt crazy at times, but Steven stayed on top of everything and kept things moving. He was always responsive, clear, and honest, which made a big difference for us. I would definitely recommend Steven to anyone looking for a mortgage broker in San Diego who knows how to handle a fast-paced deal and keep things on track.Posted on Google![]()

Nothing short of a miracle. Steven is driven, dedicated, and detail oriented. At every step he was available for all questions and explained everything to the smallest detail. Overall he made the process of getting a home and refinancing that home a year later the simplest it can be. I know I’ll continue working with him for as long as I can.

We have been working with Steve for about a year and a half, but only recently actually completed a loan with him. While we casually shopped for a new house, Steve was always available and ready to provide us with our pre approval letter. Time and time again we didn’t end up buying the house, until now. We knew there was only one person that should help with our loan and that was Steve! Steve was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. He was always available to answer questions and proactively reached out to keep us updated on our loan status. He knew the right time to lock our rate to ensure we got the best deal possible. We will be using Steve again in the future for refinancing and/or another home purchase. Thanks for all of your support Steve!Posted on Zillow![]()

Although my experience was brief. It was truly an awesome experience. Steven Hunt gave me VIP SERVICE. ON TOP OF THAT, he was an excellent teacher. I was going through alot of 1st. Situations that I had no experience in. Not only did he give his all in what I was trying to get, but he shared his expertise knowledge with me as well. All this VIP TREATMENT all around his wedding weekend. I can't brag on Steven Hunt enough. It took time out for me, all around the same time he was getting ready to get married. So for someone to got out of there way like that for someone that they don't even know. And wasn't gonna make big money by helping me. That's a person I can trust and you can too. When he heard my situation, he was honest enough to tell me, this wasn't about a payday for him. He just wanted to get the best and most comfortable situation for me. And he accomplished that. Even though we've never met, I feel like I've gain a VERY TRUSTWORTHY FRIEND. GREAT JOB STEVE!!! AND THANKS AGAIN for steering me in the right direction and giving great advice broken down simple, so this old man could make sense of it, to be easily understood.Posted on Google![]()

Happy Customer from Northern CaliforniaHappy Customer from Northern California I worked with Steven over the last 90 days to close on my loan from a new construction build in Northern California. Despite the increasing rates, Steven was able to broker an excellent % rate that outperformed the builder's lender's rate, so I locked my rate for 90 days with him, and we closed before the expiration date. Steven is knowledgeable about different loan products and will get you the right one for your situation. You will not be disappointed. He is professional, and his response time is incredible; he responds expeditiously via phone conversation, text, or email messages. He is a true advocate and performs as your fiduciary representative. It was a pleasure working with Steven; he is my go-to broker for all future deals to secure a mortgage. Thank you, Steven.

Steven is a Godsend to the world of real estateSteven is a Godsend to the world of real estate Consider yourself blessed to find yourself here reading Stevens reviews, go call him before someone buys the house you want and stop reading this! : ) however, I've got one poetically beautiful review to leave of the most significant individual in our home buying endeavor. I initially thought in Sept of 2021 using some specific Veteran Lender that was going to be the cream of the crop when it came to crushing this real estate market and getting what we needed, i have never been more incorrect. The loan officer i had was on vacation when i found a house and wanted to purchase but for 2 weeks could not make contact as she was out of country. needless to say that deal did not fall through. Ended up on the phone with Steven and i knew right from the get go, i had a 'Tom Brady' in my arsenal - (call him and you will know exactly what i'm talking about!) He was able to get me financed for a greater dollar amount which was absolutely unexpected and desired and when i was having technical issues uploading documents i was able to text pics of everything i could not do online ( tbh i ended up just taking pictures of everything cause he made it so easy in being willing to do so for us ) you know, ive always been told 'oh call me anytime' yeah yeah that never goes to plan right, like when you actually need something you call whom ever made that statement and what do ya know, no answer..Steven is truly at your disposal when ever needed even more so, he called me from while on vacay OUT OF THE COUNTRY! to address things while we were in escrow, like who the heck does that - def not that other entity google wont let me disclose, i know first hand there. Then i get a phone call a week later or so and Stevens in between flights to call and say hey Chris, interest rates just dropped i'm gonna lock you in at a better rate! like instantly mind blown right! that happened twice! mind you, interest rates are terrible at this moment and all these other lenders are marketing there over inflated interest rates like its the holy grail - Steven knew all too well and honestly took care of us, pure strangers... like family. dont deny yourself the hardest working, most thoughtful, caring and passionate lender your going to find. Your 3 feet from gold : )Posted on Zillow![]()

Steven started working with us on a weekend and was able to make us feel much more comfortable about our situation. He was available nights and weekends, anytime we had a question and made the whole daunting process super easy for us. He was able to get us an excellent rate and the fees were much less than some others we found.

Here is why I chose Him over A Credit Union. He was very quick to reply to my request and help me along through the process. I would submit items that he requested in and he would send it over to the lender or underwriter that same day. I could get a hold of him anytime of the day and on weekend also. I didn't have that type of service with A Credit Union. I dropped the Credit Union in like 3 days, and bet my luck on Him, He did a wonderful job helping me through out the process. Whenever there was a problem he already had a few solution for me. Gave me the best option so that I could get the best rate as possible in this crazy market. I bid on 12 different house and he was always on top of it with the Desktop Underwriting (DU). If you need someone on your side to help you get through this stressful mess of buying a house.
