Gem Mortgage - Bakersfield, California

Cheyenne Stewart

I am so thankful to have had the opportunity to work with Claudia. She made me feel like I was family and she always took her time with me to explain everything to the best of her knowledge. Claudia was patient with me and always communicated the entire process to me. I would highly recommend Claudia if anyone needs to feel their needs are put first. I work in healthcare and don’t always have the same hours as most people. Claudia made herself available at my convenience.

I couldn't ask for a better experience using Gem Mortgage. From Rene's continuous phone calls, explanations, encouragement, and solutions, to his courteous staff who understand what follow-up and follow-through is all about; I'm 100% convinced I made the right choice. Gem Mortgage provided me with the knowledge and information I needed to secure my home loan and I felt they were on my side, every step of the home purchasing process. I especially appreciated Rene calling me himself to check in and ensure my experience didn't stall. If you want a winning team in your corner, don't hesitate to call Gem Mortgage. Thanks Alondra, Rene, and everyone else that made my dream of home ownership come true.

The Best in the Business: Brad Puckett, Producing Branch Manager at Gemcorp

If you’re looking for someone who truly goes above and beyond in the world of mortgage lending, look no further than Brad Puckett. I’ve had the privilege of working with Brad throughout my journey to buy my first home, and while I wasn’t ultimately able to use his services due to licensing limitations in New Mexico, I can confidently say that Brad is an extraordinary professional and an even better person.

Over the years, I’ve navigated the challenging process of home-buying while moving between different states. Throughout it all, Brad remained a constant source of support and guidance. His knowledge of the mortgage industry is unparalleled, and he always took the time to explain every detail, no matter how small, in a way that was clear and easy to understand. Brad never made me feel like just another client—he genuinely cared about my success and made me feel like I had someone in my corner every step of the way.

What truly sets Brad apart is his selflessness. Even now, when I’m not using his services, he continues to help me by offering invaluable advice and explanations to ensure I make informed decisions. That level of dedication is rare, and it’s a testament to Brad’s character and professionalism.

In the process, Brad has become more than a mortgage professional—he’s become a friend. He’s the kind of person you can trust implicitly, and he approaches his work with integrity, kindness, and a genuine desire to help people achieve their dreams.

I cannot recommend Brad Puckett highly enough. Whether you’re buying your first home or your fifth, you won’t find a better partner to guide you through the process. Thank you, Brad, for everything you’ve done for me—you’re truly the best in the business!

Emilio was very helpful and made this very important step in our families' lives easy and stress free. He went above and beyond to make sure we understood and felt comfortable during the whole process. Thank you again.

I really enjoyed working with Jim Kreminski. He's a great guy and communication was great. You'll find him reliable and he's very approachable. Jim handled my first mortgage over 20 years ago and I continue working with him. He's one of the few people I feel completely comfortable working with. I will go back to Jim for all my refinance needs.
Thank you.
