Terrific both times. I will say that I don’t like writing reviews but the Leaman Team really are exceptional at what they do. If you are shopping around for a lender and not sure how to choose – then definitely call the Leaman Team and see what they can do for you. I bet you will be glad you did.

Everyone I worked with in this group was great! Being first time home buyers, my husband and I needed plenty of guidance.

I felt in the know and comfortable throughout the entire process. When it came down to the serious business, all communication was direct and prompt. Most of the transactions were completed in the same day. I also appreciated the follow up communication after closing. Overall, the Leman Team made our first home buying experience a fantastic one!

I had the pleasure of buying my first house with Max and he made the endless maze of paperwork and obstacles seem like a cakewalk

He worked closely with my Realtor and helped me find the right financial arrangement to fit my situation. I can safely say that my home buying experience was smooth and simple with Max’s expert guidance. I would recommend him to anyone trying to buy in the Austin area! Subsequent to the above review, I have also refinanced my house with the Leaman group and again, they were fantastic. Jori Stern, who handled my account, was exceptional at every step working with me to ensure that I understood what was happening and helping me to get through the tangle of paperwork that has to be coordinated to successfully complete the refinancing process. 5 years after buying my house I still can think of no one else I would recommend above the Leaman Group for your finance needs! If I ever refinance again (doubtful because Jori got me such a great deal!) or buy another house they will be my first choice.

I’d like to echo some of the wonderful attributes already mentioned about Max.

He is a very personable and bright loan officer. His customer service is impeccable. He tended to my every question and made sure I understood what to expect during the process. I credit him with my smooth home closing. I will definitely recommend him to family, friends, and colleagues in the future.

The whole experience was exactly how it is described in the introduction.

It was stress free and Max was helpful throughout the entire process. My only regret is that I do not have any other friends to recommend to him that are in need of a mortgage or refinance. All questions were addressed promptly and no concern ever seemed to insignificant for his time. He could always be reached wether it was by phone, text, e-mail, or fax. I mention these things because we made an attempt in 2009 to refinance when rates were trending down. We decided to work with Barton Mortgage because they helped us with our initial mortgage. We assumed that since we had a history with them and were repeat customers that the process would be easy. No such luck. Phone calls would be returned days later; items had to re-faxed and with so many delays on their part we missed our window to take advantage of the lower rates. I felt like we were constantly requesting them to process our paperwork so we could lock in on a good rate. Our experience with Max was the opposite of that. He did everything he could to facilitate the process and we were able to take advantage of the rates at the time. Also, as far as cost goes, it turned out to be half of what it would’ve cost with the other company. Needless to say, we were very happy with our experience and if he can help us in the future we will be contacting him again.

As a first time home-buyer Max Leaman made our experience extremely easy.

Everyone in Austin should be going through the Leaman Team! Our realtor, Ryan Rodenbeck, put us in touch with Max when we started looking for our home. Our initial meeting with Max was relaxed and informative. He laid out what we could afford and what we would be comfortable with. Anytime we looked at a home that we were interested in, we would send the info over to Max and he would send us a summary of costs.

Even though I know the Leaman Team had countless customers while they were working with us, Max and his team made us feel like we were the only ones on their radar. This goes a long way, especially when you’re dealing with the largest purchase I’ve ever made. Thanks again Max and the team!

Max might just be a genius.

I say this in all honesty–he is super organized, friendly to the point where you think you might have known him your whole life, professional, and honest. This is our first home and we were almost paranoid about trusting our financial future to someone we did not know. Max set us at ease very quickly. Not only was he completely thorough in his explanations, he was more than patient when we didn’t understand. He was upfront and professional with serious bits and laid back and friendly in the not-so-stressful moments. Max continues to keep in touch after closing–shortly after we closed we got a smiley face magnet from him, which is all Max. Today we got a an address stamper(oohlala!). In addition to all this, we got an AMAZING interest rate.

So, honestly I cannot imagine you get better service anywhere in the metro Austin area. Mostly because Max isnt faking it–he obviously enjoys providing customer satisfaction beyond expectations. And yes he does come to closings, and we were funded in under an hour. He called us before the Title company did!

Meet with him, he DOES have your best interests in mind!

Max and his team are awesome. He helped us close a difficult deal on an investment property last year where other lenders could not deliver…Max did.

We had issues with the property, Max helped us overcome. Had issues with the appraisal, Max helped us overcome. Had issues with the seller not willing to extend escrow….yup Max helped us overcome.

Can’t say anything better about him and his team’s work ethic…Give him a call, you won’t be sorry!

Amanda with the Max Leaman team was so great!

The process was super smooth and so efficient. Amanda was easy to contact and fast to respond. She answered all my questions fully and I felt so at ease (even as a first time home owner!!). All emails are super clear on what is needed of you and by when.

My husband and I were shopping around online and came across Max Leaman team. We decided to give him a call and we’re very glad we did.

Max is very funny, yet professional. His fees are lower. He acts fast, responds on time and returns our calls every single time. We also had a chance to work with Max’s teammate and she is always on top of things. Having been working with this team, it was more than a pleasant business experience for us. We are first time home buyers and we loved the services we have received. Everything went smoothly. We were able to close earlier than we anticipated it would be, and the team has helped to make it happened. I am writing this review sitting in my new home and we love it very much. We already have recommended Max Leaman team to all of my friends and the people we know. If you are shopping around for a great lender with lower fees, drop this team a call; it’s totally worth it!
