Acquire Mortgage and Real Estate provides local access to all your real estate needs in California. Unlike most firms, beyond lending, we also offer sales and purchases, all under one roof.

Get to Know Acquire

Acquire offers the most competitive programs and rates available in the marketplace. We have access to over 50 lenders within the mortgage industry and fund some of the loans in house. These wholesale lenders are all reputable banks, most which offer a wide range of loan products, which gives Acquire the ability to source the best product for any situation.

Did you know owning your home is one of the fastest ways to grow your personal wealth? At Acquire we value helping people see what home ownership can do for you beyond being where you live. Understanding how to utilize property as a tool to grow your financial independence is the key differentiator of how Acquire separates itself from the traditional Real Estate brokerage. We understand the complexity of purchasing real estate and our expertise will help guide you to maximize your opportunity to tap into the greatest wealth influencer in the last century.

As a local company in San Luis Obispo, we bring 50+ years of combined experience to make your loan application seamless and stress free. Our company has the ability to use qualified local appraisers who will value your home for its “true value”. That’s important because special improvements you have done are often overlooked by major banks. We want the highest value for your home so you get the best possible terms on your loan refinance. We want to earn your business and develop a long term relationship built on integrity and service.

We look forward to discussing your Mortgage and Real Estate needs.

“I met Daniel after following up on a lead from a refi booth at the SLO Farmer's Market. I had been contemplating refinancing my home for years and had checked with a couple of institutions without getting motivated. Daniel made me aware of the newest incentives and had me refinanced at a 33% lower mortgage payment within a few weeks and with only $150 out-of-pocket. Later he enlightened me about home-equity loans, which made it possible for me to contemplate buying a second house. He then put up with me for months of home viewing expeditions while I shopped for another house in the SLO/Morro Bay area. Our persistence paid off when we found just what we were looking for, a deal we are still delighted with amost a year later.”
