About Peter Ryu
His father instilled in him to never settle and to always give it his all, which is what Peter Ryu did after receiving his economics degree from the University of Washington and accepting a position as a full-time loan officer. “I developed a passion for helping people achieve the American Dream,” he recalls. “Now, as a mortgage banker, I love working with people and being a part of their journey.”
The branch manager and Mortgage Advisor with New American Funding, Ryu is focusing on growing their Bellevue branch. In the industry for 21 years, he credits his success to his ability to provide a perspective that will set clients up for success. “I look at the big picture and offer solutions that my competition wouldn’t even think about,” he says.
Named to the President’s Club and awarded Top 1% honors by Scotsman Guide and Top Originator Magazine, Ryu is known for being attentive, ethical and compassionate toward his clients. A board member of the Asian Real Estate Association of America, Ryu recently co-chaired the organization’s second-annual golf tournament, doubling their donation from last year to Northwest Hope and Healing, a local nonprofit that provides financial assistance to female cancer patients.
Ryu spends free time with his two sons, who he also coaches in basketball. They enjoy playing baseball, fishing, crabbing and snowboarding together. “We have aspirations to start a band, so we just started taking guitar and drums lessons,” he adds. “Family is my No. 1 priority, and my boys are the reason I strive to be the best.”

"????? As a Realtor, I can confidently say that Peter is one of the very few lenders I trust enough to refer to my own clients without hesitation. In this industry, who you partner with matters, and Peter consistently goes above and beyond for every buyer he works with. He is knowledgeable, responsive, patient, and always takes the time to educate clients so they feel confident throughout the financing process. Whether it’s a first-time homebuyer, a seasoned investor, or a complicated loan scenario, Peter approaches every situation with professionalism and genuine care. What I appreciate most is that Peter always puts his clients’ best interests first. He isn’t focused on simply closing a loan. He’s focused on helping people make smart financial decisions and finding the best possible solution for their goals. His communication is outstanding, and I always know my clients are in great hands when I send them his way. Beyond being an exceptional lender, Peter is also an incredible colleague through AREAA. He is generous with his time, supportive of fellow professionals, and someone who truly believes in lifting others up. If you’re looking for a lender who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, hardworking, and genuinely cares about his clients, Peter is the person you want on your team. I would recommend him over and over again. — HsiaoMei Yang, Realtor® ???"
