Awesome work! Thank you!

The BEST lender I have ever dealt with.

After 2 failed attempts at trying to use a big bank lender and a understandably growing impatient seller, Max and his team was able to close on time and with a competitive rate to what I was being offered. My title company, seller’s realtor, my realtor and home inspector all recommended him which should tell you something. Thanks Max!

Shopped our loan around, discussed with us ways to improve our loan amount we were approved for.

Explained what types of loans would best suit our needs they were very thorough. Would definitely reccomend.

We ultimately chose to hold off on buying to improve our loan amount and pay down a credit card we have first, even though we got the interest rates we wanted we decided a custom built home was best path for us. And didnt get the loan amount we were hoping for. With some tips Jori provided I think we will be ready by next year to move forward.

I found their pricing very competitive after doing a lot of research and they were extremely responsive and made zero mistakes throughout the transact

Max made buying a home for the first time a great experience.

I felt like he was very knowledgeable about the kind of loan I needed, very honest about the entire process and all the nuances of purchasing a home, and perhaps most important, I thought he had my best interests in mind. Max is always working, so if you have a burning question, he’s quick to respond. I have already recommended Max a few times since getting in the house just a few weeks ago.

I contacted the Leaman team as a last resort.

I thought it was one of those “too good to be true” situations especially after being turned down for a mortgage from several lenders and banks. My husband I were looking to get a second mortgage (we use our first one as rental property back in NC) and had dreams of being home owners again here in Austin. Hurdle #1? I’m self employed, #2 my husband switched jobs(same field) within the last year and of course this being our second mortgage…well we weren’t exactly prime candidates for a mortgage approval. When I was contacted by the Leaman team she gave me the initial hope that I needed to start the process. During every step I was pretty apprehensive. I really was waiting for a phone call saying “oh sorry looks like we actually can’t approve you”..when it didn’t come… I was cautiously optimistic.

Perhaps I built the whole process up in my head as being this huge nightmare, but really finding our house was the biggest challenge. Everything happened very quickly and we were able to close within 30 days give or take. I will definitely use them again as well as recommend them to friends/family. If you have doubts about qualifying or you are self employed (which so many of us are now) I suggest giving them a call.

We turned to Max in a panic one month before closing when we felt the mortgage broker our realtor orginally recommended was lacking in expertise.

Max was a breath of fresh air. Upon first contacting him, he met us the next morning and got things started efficiently and expediently. Anytime we had a concern or question, he answered us promptly via phone and email with clear explanations. Best of all, we closed on time! He even showed up in person for our closing while we were signing paperwork to address any final hour questions and offered guidance on what would happen next with the homestead act, mortgage payments, etc. If you are purchasing your first property in Texas, Max is super knowledgeable about the loan process, appraisals, mortgage rates and more. Talk to him first before considering another mortgage loan lender. His customer service and care through a really stressful time for us was A+.

Max and the team handled a refinance of my mortgage. I saw all the positive reviews and decided to give them a try and I am very glad I did.

Their fees were lower than the other two estimates I received and the service was outstanding. They made the process as streamlined as possible and were proactive in communication and timing to ensure a painless closing. No surprises, no hidden fees. They were very straightforward and efficient. I have closed on numerous mortgages and refi’s and this was by far the best ever. They are a professional, no-nonsense team that does what they say and on time and at a reasonable cost. Their office is in Austin and I live in Houston and there was no problem in handling this from a distance as we closed at the title company’s office in the Galleria area.

This was a totally painless process with no problems or surprises. The title company handled the closing papers well with no glitches. Their fees were substantially less than the two other estimates I received and I couldn’t be happier with the process.

Max set me up with a great mortgage.

I’m new to the US and while I have bought houses in other countries I had no idea how it worked here. Max and his team where super helpful explain what was happening and making sure that I did not pay more than I need for things like insurance and home warranty. This was all in addition to getting me a great rate on the mortgage. I would highly recommend to any everyone.

Max is the BEST!

I was a first-time home buyer, and Max made the whole process as stress-free as possible. He answered all my questions and put my mind at ease every step of the way. When any possible problems arose, Max always had a solution. In fact, I don’t know if I would even own a house today if not for Max. He went above and beyond. I felt like he was looking out for me throughout the whole process, from anticipating any possible hiccups with the mortgage insurance to keeping a close eye on the interest rates and knowing when to lock in. He was always there for my calls, and he made everything crystal clear. He even attended the closing, which was invaluable. Go with Max for a smooth and informative mortgage experience. You won’t be surprised at closing, and you’ll be telling all of your friends about him, just like I did. He really is the best!
Pros: Knowledgeable, available, and on top of everything
