Petaluma is a southern Sonoma County river town on Highway 101 with one of the best-preserved historic downtowns in California and streets of Victorian homes on its west side. We help Petaluma buyers and homeowners with conventional, jumbo, FHA and VA financing, refinances and equity lines. A refinance is only worth doing when the math works, and Pacific National Lending starts every Petaluma refinance conversation with the numbers: the new rate, the closing costs, how many months it takes to recover those costs, and what you save over the time you expect to keep the home.

Petaluma is popular with Marin and San Francisco commuters who want more space and small-town character, so well-kept homes draw multiple offers and most purchases need high-balance or jumbo financing. The west side's older homes can raise condition questions on appraisal, while the east side's newer subdivisions are straightforward for every loan program. Refinancing an Petaluma home usually requires a new appraisal, income and asset verification and a credit review, though FHA and VA streamline refinances reduce that paperwork for borrowers who already have those loan types. We tell you up front which path applies to you.

Housing includes Victorians and Craftsman homes around D Street and the Oakhill-Brewster district, 1970s to 2000s subdivisions across East Petaluma, golf-course homes at Adobe Creek, and country properties on the roads west of town. If you have an existing low-rate first mortgage in Petaluma, refinancing the whole loan to access cash may not be the best move. We will say so, and we will show you the alternatives, including a HELOC or a second mortgage that leaves your first loan untouched.
Homeowners in Petaluma with FHA loans can often refinance into a conventional loan to remove mortgage insurance once they reach 20 percent equity, which can save hundreds per month. We run that comparison for every FHA borrower who asks.
Pacific National Lending serves Downtown Petaluma, D Street, Oakhill-Brewster, West Petaluma and the rest of Petaluma for mortgage refinancing. Petaluma is about an hour and forty-five minutes from our Gold River office, and we handle Petaluma loans remotely from application to closing.
