Rafayel Muradyan
Founder & President, Closed & Sold Lending | NMLS #

For more than seventeen years, Rafayel Muradyan has been helping clients navigate one of life’s biggest financial decisions — homeownership. He built Closed & Sold Lendingaround a single principle: that lending should be transparent, efficient, and genuinely supportive of people’s goals.

Rafayel began his career during a volatile lending era, when outdated systems and excessive red tape left borrowers frustrated and uncertain. Instead of accepting that as normal, he turned those flaws into his mission. His vision was simple but disruptive: use technology to simplify the mortgage process without losing the human touch that trust depends on.

Under his leadership, Closed & Sold Lending has become a forward-thinking California brokerage known for precision, integrity, and results. Rafayel introduced advanced data-driven tools that streamline approvals, improve accuracy, and ensure each client receives personalized guidance from start to finish. The company’s systems are designed to do what technology does best — process and analyze — while freeing loan specialists to do what humans do best — listen, empathize, and find creative solutions.

What sets Rafayel apart is his ability to balance innovation with accountability. He’s not interested in chasing trends; he’s committed to building a lending model that lasts. Every process, from application to close, is built on compliance with California’s DRE and federal lending standards, ensuring transparency and fairness at every step.

Beyond the numbers, Rafayel sees lending as a service industry — one built on communication, clarity, and respect for each client’s story. His leadership philosophy centers on mentorship and professional growth, cultivating a team that shares his belief that excellence is non-negotiable and trust is earned daily.

Today, Closed & Sold Lending continues to grow under Rafayel’s direction, serving homeowners, investors, and partners across Los Angeles County and beyond. The company’s motto — “Taking the Hassle Outta Funding” — reflects not just a marketing line, but the daily standard he insists on delivering.

Rafayel Muradyan’s career stands as proof that innovation and integrity can coexist — that technology can simplify without replacing, and that lending, at its best, is still about people helping people reach their dreams.

FAQS

Do you have questions on mortgage loans? You aren’t the only one.

Oftentimes, mortgages are confusing and complicated, especially for first time home buyers. At C&S Lending, we provide you with the knowledge you need and guide you through the entire process starting from pre-qualification all the way to the closing table.

Do I need a good credit to get a mortgage? What if I have a bankruptcy?

Having good credit helps to get a better interest rate but it isn’t always required. Our FHA programs allow credit scores as low as 580 and also allow for bankruptcies that were discharged 2 years prior to your application date.

How long does the process take to obtain a mortgage loan?

On average, the typical mortgage loan process can take 30 to 45 days.

What’s the difference between a home equity loan and a cash out refinance?

A cash out refinance pays off your existing mortgage loan and gives you a new one with new terms. A home equity loan gives you a second loan with a separate payment without touching your first mortgage loan.

What documentation do I need?

Typically, for full documentation files, we need 2 years of income documentation including tax returns, paystubs, and W2s. At C&S Lending, we understand that it may be challenging to qualify for a conventional loan and that is why we offer programs with little to no income documentation. Speak with a loan officer today and get prequalified.

What is an Escrow / Impound Account?

An escrow account or impound account is set up by the lender to pay expenses such as property taxes and homeowners insurance. The money that goes into this account is sent from your monthly payment.

How much should I save for a down payment?

We have programs with 100% financing so a down-payment is not always required. With conventional loans, anything less than 20% down means you will have mortgage insurance.

How do I know which program is best for me and how do I know if I qualify?

We have many different programs and options including full documentation, no documentation, FHA loans, and more. Contact C&S Lending and speak with a loan officer to see which program is right for you!

What are closing costs?

Closing costs are the fees and expenses you pay for securing your home or finalizing your transaction. It includes fees such as escrow/title fees, origination fees, prepaid escrow account fees, and more. These typically can range from 3-6% of the loan amount.

What is mortgage insurance?

Mortgage insurance is required on all FHA loans and conventional loans if you put less than 20% as a down payment.

Is buying better than renting?

In most cases, yes! Owning a home comes with many great benefits. You’ll build wealth over time and you can tap into the equity you build to do many things such as home improvement, paying off debt, or buying another property. Another bonus is that mortgage interest payments are tax deductible.
