About Us
1st Lending Solutions, Inc. does business as First Lending Solutions. Our Riverside office has been open since 2005. Alan Vogan, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, has worked in mortgage and real estate since 2001, and he’s our CEO.
Why people work with us
Alan wanted home loans done the right way, so he started the company. He began in mortgage and real estate in 2001, and he founded 1st Lending Solutions, Inc. in Riverside, California in 2005. We’re still based in Riverside, at 3610 Central Ave, Suite 400, and Alan still runs the company as CEO.
Here’s what that means if you call us:
- More than 20 years of experience. Alan has been in the business since 2001, and we’ve helped Inland Empire and Southern California families since 2005.
- A veteran who knows VA loans. Alan’s Marine Corps service is a big part of why we like helping veterans, active-duty service members, Reserve and Guard members, and surviving spouses use their VA benefits. Whether you qualify depends on your service and on VA rules, and we’ll help you sort that out.
- Both a broker and a lender. We work as a mortgage broker and a mortgage lender, so we aren’t stuck with one set of loan products. We’ll look at more than one path and explain the trade-offs in plain language.
- You can reach us directly. Apply online, or call or email us. You can also sit down with us at our Riverside office, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. PT. You’ll talk with our own team. No call center.
- We’ll stay in touch with your Realtor and escrow. We keep everyone on the same page, from the first conversation through closing day.
- Built one client at a time. Rated 5.0 stars from 300+ Google reviews.
