About Us
Pacific West Lending was founded in 2017 by Chris Bang and Michael Aldridge, seasoned financial services professionals with a combined 50+ years industry experience. The company specializes in residential lending through a network of funding sources which give our clients multiple options in any given scenario, as opposed to being limited to one set of guidelines and rates like most banks. Conventional, FHA, VA, and USDA financing options are all available.
