We are a team that provides both Mortgage Loans as well as Real Estate needs. With our connections and background in the Deaf Community, we are confident we can provide the best service while educating more and more to become home owners. Both fluent in ASL and know how to communicate through many platforms: FaceTime, Glide, Skype, Facebook video, and many others.
It is vital we are able to communicate directly with our clients as it eliminates many misunderstandings and confusion. Unfortunately, relay service relies on an interpreter to also understand how to sign important information such as the signs for mortgage, the closing costs and many other numbers that can easily be mixed up which means we are not providing the best communication. So, we prefer speaking directly with our clients whether in person or through different video platforms that allow us to provide clear and accurate information.

I have been immersed in the Deaf Community for over 20 year. With this experience, I have made my business naturally the deaf way. Our meetings to make sure the process is clear and all options are considered in order to protect your interests, not just interpreted, is the only way. Preparing for the process and building a bridge of easy communication and understanding your needs creates a respectful environment and smooth transaction. Destination: HOME!
Cindy Hallas - Mortgage Loan Originator - ASL Loan Officer
I am proud to say I absolutely fell in love with the Deaf Community when I decide to take ASL (American Sign Language) as my foreign language back in college at University of Arizona. I was fortunate to take ASL from the very best program. As a visual learner, ASL made sense for me. I was very quick to learn this beautiful language but then fell in love with the language and the culture. I took every class I could possibly take until it was time for me to move on. When I was able, I moved back to the Phoenix area and then took several more classes from Phoenix College to finish their interpreting program. I was so fascinated by the history and culture so I wanted to stay active within the culture. Throughout the years, I have had the Blessing of meeting many others in the Deaf Community from Deaf, Hard of Hearing and or connected somehow within the Deaf Community. I was hooked. With being a full time Loan Originator in the Mortgage business, it was my quest to make the communication so much better as well as keep it more respectful and private for our Deaf Clientele. I wanted to make the environment more comfortable and involve them with every piece of the transaction. I become a notary and am certified with many title companies across the valley to be the go to for mobile notary for any Deaf Clients.
I find ASL is the most beautiful language and many hearing people also agree. Everywhere I go, when interpreting, whether at my church, at a wedding or any other event, I seem to get more and more people drawn in with the beauty of the language. It gives me great pride to then be able to share the beautiful culture and introduce some of our Deaf individuals to our hearing individuals.
Being in the Mortgage Industry since June of 1998 gives me a good overall understanding of the market and the industry. I am confident in this. I have been Blessed to also assist many Deaf clients with their mortgages and connect with other REALTORS® who work within the Deaf Community. I absolutely love love love this. I have met many amazing Deaf Clients whom are now my friends. Our mission is to provide the best communication and overall service DIRECTLY so we can be sure the process is clear and concise. I prefer communicating directly through FaceTime, Glide or face to face to secure full understanding with the mortgage and real estate process.
I encourage anyone to reach out to me on FT on my iphone at 602-531-0088. Thank you for taking the time to visit my site and please let me know how I can assist you.
