About Us

Stephan Wiederkehr, President & Mortgage Broker has been a in the mortgage industry for two decades and a licensed Mortgage Broker since 2005. I was born and raised in Switzerland and after obtaining a degree in business, I came to the US not planning to stay for a long time. However, after graduating Summa Cum Laude from the University of California at Berkeley I decided to make my home here. I have lived in Southern California ever since, together with my wife and three children.
I founded Pacific Mortgage Co with the goal of providing both excellence in lending to my clients, and a solid infrastructure with support for other loan officers that allows them to excel as well.
Every loan transaction is as unique as is the financial and credit profile of each individual client. Matching a client’s specific situation and goals with the right loan program is my mission and excellence in execution is my daily goal. We have expanded our lending partner network to over 30 lenders and offer hundreds of loan programs. This allows us to offer every client the broadest selection of solutions to their individual situation.
Although, given our geographic location, we tend to work with many affluent clients, I put the same effort into working with a first time home buyer as I do working with a seasoned real estate investor.
Uncommon in the mortgage industry, I am an expert in both residential and commercial real estate lending. You can rely on our expertise for an apartment purchase as much as you trust us with a VA, FHA, or Reverse mortgage transaction.

Valentino Adams - I have worked in the mortgage related fields for many years and during that time, I have learned that my aptitude to genuinely care for people and their financial goals is not a very common feature in our industry.
Integrity is the cornerstone of how I function. I believe a mortgage professional should strive to build long term relationships, and helping home owners and buyers achieve their home financing goals. It should not be a one-off transaction. As a Loan Officer, I take a consultative approach to the home loan process by customizing each home financing solution to help customers achieve their home goals. Many Loan Officers can get you a loan; however, my mission is to find you the right loan that is best for you, not me.
My objective is to make all my clients feel at ease and having the ability to think outside the box has earned me an exceptional reputation among my clientele.
