I strive to make the home loan process as smooth as possible by communicating clearly, submitting complete and well-prepared files, and addressing potential challenges upfront. My goal is to eliminate surprises, so your experience is seamless from start to finish.
My Background
I began my mortgage career in 1994 while attending Sacramento State University. Starting as a loan processor, I quickly moved into roles as a loan officer and eventually into sales management. This hands-on experience has given me an in-depth understanding of the entire loan process. It’s why my customers appreciate not only my knowledge but also my ability to guide them through each step with confidence and clarity.
Building relationships has always been at the heart of my work. For me, it’s not just about closing a loan—it’s about creating lasting connections and helping you achieve your long-term financial goals.

Testimonials
Chris and his team were amazing to work with! Entire refinance process took approximately 2-3 weeks. He kept me up-to-date and made the entire process seamless and transparent! I also really appreciate how he went over my options few times with me and helped me select the option that made the most sense for me financially!
Chris has been very helpful in our home purchase journey. I cannot express how much he provided me reassurance, comfort, and peace during this whole process. This is our first time purchasing a home, and I had so much fear and anxiety throughout the whole time. But every time I had a question or concern, he was literally a phone call /text message away. He is super responsive. Chris is always available, and he always makes time. I enjoyed working with him so much due to his professionalism and customer service. I would recommend anyone who is in the home purchasing process to reach out to Chris. I guarantee you, he really is wonderful and I work with him all over again.
I’m a broker in Meadow Vista and love working with Chris. I can count on him to quickly meet with my clients and get approvals. If Chris Owen is helping my client with a loan I do not have to worry! Makes for easy closings!
