Our Roots in Walnut Creek and the East Bay Community

At My Mortgage Ally, we believe that a mortgage isn’t just a financial transaction—it’s the foundation of your life in the San Francisco Bay Area. Founded on the principles of transparency and advocacy, our team, led by Eric Rotner (NMLS# 338424), brings over two decades of local lending experience to the table. Based in Walnut Creek, we have witnessed the evolution of the Contra Costa and Alameda County real estate markets firsthand. We understand the specific challenges local buyers face, from navigating high-balance loan limits to competing against aggressive all-cash offers in neighborhoods like Saranap, Parkmead, and Tice Valley.

Our presence in the 1501 N. Broadway corridor is a testament to our commitment to the community. We aren’t a faceless online call center; we are your neighbors. This local expertise allows us to provide a level of nuance that national lenders simply cannot match. We know the local appraisers, we understand the regional property tax implications, and we maintain strong relationships with the East Bay’s top real estate agents to ensure your closing is seamless and your offer is prioritized.

The “Ally” Advantage: Why Our Expertise Matters

The name “My Mortgage Ally” was chosen with intent. In a lending environment that often feels transactional and cold, we position ourselves as your strategist and defender. Our team of Senior Loan Officers, including Deniz Aksoy, Peter Gaeckle, and Brian Green, specializes in “outside the box” financing that traditional banks often overlook.

While we offer a full suite of Conventional, FHA, and VA loans, our true expertise lies in solving complex scenarios. Whether you are a tech professional in Silicon Valley looking for an Asset Utilization loan, a self-employed business owner in Walnut Creek needing a Bank Statement or P&L-only mortgage, or a real estate investor utilizing DSCR financing to scale a portfolio, we have the specialized knowledge to bridge the gap.

We operate under the umbrella of Cornerstone First Mortgage, giving us the agility of a local boutique firm backed by the powerhouse resources and competitive rates of a national leader. This hybrid model ensures our clients receive “Top 1% Originator” service—meaning faster turn times, fewer hurdles, and a stress-free path to homeownership. At My Mortgage Ally, your financial goals are our mission, and your future is our priority.
