Leon and his employees are extremely kind. The poor rating is due to their mistakes that cost us a…read morelot of money and time and their poor communication skills. First, we applied for a mortgage so that we could finish fixing-up a home that we purchased outright. Well, the money that we needed for fixing-up the home was much more than we had in the bank (HGTV shows are honest about that). Unfortunately, Leon applied for the wrong type of mortgage, he completed the application for a fully completed home instead of a renovation mortgage. When he realized his mistake he apologized and referred us to a guy that issued short-term loans. We were grateful for the loan as we were not aware of any other options. The interest and fees that we had to pay for this loan were well over $6,000. We rushed to finished the home in two months and were able to pay-off the short-term loan with the mortgage that Leon helped us apply for. Adding insult to injury, we had to pay over $3,000 for his mistake because he charged us for holding our interest rate for the time that it took us to complete the home. In no other business would the customer be responsible for the producer's mistake. Their communication is poor, not only because Leon completed paperwork for the wrong type of mortgage but also because Kristen Link handles most of the underwriting and her emails are unorganized and lack professionalism. When asking for clarification, she would respond with an even more jumbled email. The last thing is that we have had our mortgage for three months and we received another jumbled email from Kristen Link requesting more information or else the loan will not be verified. What?!?! First, it took a series of emails asking for clarification to understand exactly what she was requesting. Second, the employees at Academy Mortgage failed to send all necessary information or communication to the mortgage company before the loan was issued. Third, our vacation time was abruptly interrupted because they failed to do their job. They cost us an additional $9,000 (that is an exuberant amount of money for us), an unnecessary amount of time fixing their mistakes, and an extremely frustrating experience due to their poor communication skills. They are nice. They are not worth the time, frustration, or money.

I'm lucky to be in my home finally but you need to be warned about their business practices and affiliations that ultimately leave a buyer at the mercy of the lender and builder. What a nightmare. Team Lane had to be taken off of my file toward the end because he could not help himself from himself. Team Mandi took over and they got me to the finish line. Not without a lot of unnecessary stress. Very disorganized and not interested in being an educator with their clients but rather condescending bullies. Not a company I would ever recommend to anyone in my lifetime.

The review of two Mortgage Companies (A cautionary tale and…read morewhy staying local is key) Sorry if this is a little long winded but I have to give high praise to Tina Burney of Premier Mortgage Resources here in the Treasure Valley. I don't write reviews on goods or services unless they are really bad or really good. And now The Rest of the Story.... I decided I wanted to go from a 30 yr fixed to a 15 yr fixed and pull some cash out. Having been a mortgage loan officer and California real estate licensee for 20 years, I know the business. And because of that I know that my situation with my finances, credit, stability, etc is what we used to refer to when I was in the business as a "slam dunk" deal. I decided to contact my current mortgage holder, Freedom Mortgage for this need because I had been with them for over 5 years. What a mistake that was! Long story short, Freedom Mortgage company was inept, unprofessional and non-communicative. After 3 months of playing with this company, I ended up e-mail blasting 15 top level executives to include the CEO to try to get some action. They still could not pull it together! A friend of mine told me his son had just had a great experience with Tina Burney at Premier Mortgage Resources so I called her. After talking with her, I decided to pull my application from Freedom and to reapply with Tina. I found her very professional, knowledgeable and fast! On May 6th she took my application. On May 8th she had an approval pending the title report. We signed our docs on May 22nd and the deal was funded, recorded and wire transfer in the bank was complete on May 28th. So what Freedom Mortgage couldn't get done in over 3 months, Tina Burney got done in 22 days start to finish! Bottom line is this. If you want your loan process to go smooth and fast, go to Tina. And no I do not get any kickbacks for this! She is just that good!
