She was able to get me the best rate in such competitive market, but that was not the best thing. Our seller had so many reservations about the VA loan (wanted to sell to someone with conventional loan) but when seller and their agent talked to Lana and asked so many questions, Lana was extremely patient and addressed all their concerns and finally we got our offer accepted just because of Lana Jern.

Since then with the mortgaging switch and portal change, it is now virtually impossible get a hold of a human to resolve any issue.

I have been trying to get them to respond to my request to remove PMI (which has met the loan term conditions) and I am still dealing with this since 3 months ago. Avoid this company at all costs

He had thousands of dollars stolen from him by scammers, so I had to close several accounts and block his phone. We therefore missed communication from CGM, and late fees continued to accumulate. When this came to my attention, I spent hours on the phone with them and they refused to waive more than one fee, despite extreme circumstances. Apparently if they supported my dad, he might tell someone else, who would feel that THEIR late fees should be waived. Can't have that! Look elsewhere for lending options.

Austin First Mortgage usually directly provides the lowest interest rate on the market. They are…read morevery motivated to get things done in time BUT they tends to put everything they requested from the customer's (loan applicant) end on extreme rush. They once sent me a document of more than 30 pages and ask me to sign within 2 hours. They also sent me a list of requested 7 or 8 documents (e.g. copy of ID, bank statements, etc.) and expect me to get all of them ready within the same day. Every time if you do not provide what they need in time, they will "remind" you that the delay from your end might DELAY CLOSING. It was a thrilling experience, but once passed this phase (and got used to their style and pace), it went smoothly. The front desk lady who will be processing your "lock rate" documents sounds grumpy and very impatient. All the other people I have worked with from Austin First Mortgage were pretty nice and helpful (except that they put everything on rush). I do recommend the management at Austin First Mortgage to consider training their employees to be more courteous to the clients. I am really glad that they were able to get the loan ready to close the transaction on time. From what I have heard, some big banks does not push you (or not even follow up with you regularly) for the documents but it usually ends up delaying closing. To sum up, I would recommend Austin First Mortgage to people who want to get their loan ready in time. But it does take a while to get used to their "pushy" style. However, if you cannot stand being "bossed" around at all, my suggestion is to get a quote from Austin First Mortgage (as they usually directly provide the lowest rate on the market) and then go to your bank and ask them to match the rate.

First off, their rate is very competitive…read more But be ready with bad service and lack of communication. We closed in almost 90 days. First 60 days, we uploaded Loan application and many documents. Locked in rate. Didn't hear for 60 days. Kept trying to reach them. Their main phone number - a receptionist who doesn't know anything got unfriendly and just transferred me to a voicemail. Nobody ever called me back. I called direct phone number of the person sssigned to me. Her phone said "this mailbox is full. Goodbye". Could never leave a voicemail on her phone. When I emailed them, there was hardly any responses once I paid them $500 to start the process. I prayed they really processed our refi. Otherwise I lost $500 The last 15 -20 days the person kept emailing us wanting this, that, although many documents we already uploaded in their system. And always hurrying us up.. .. I need this ASAP.. ..need that ASAP.... First she said would close in 2 weeks. Then suddenly on Thursday night emailed me saying wanna close on Saturday morning. Well, I didn't open my email till Friday afternoon and I wanna review the numbers she put together to make sure nothing was wrong. We are not talking small amount when it comes to refi house. I emailed her saying "can we close on Monday?" She said nope .. rate gonna expire. Well, if they didn't drag their feet the first 60 days, rate wouldn't have expired. Until Friday night, I still didn't know where the title office is. We normally go title office to close. It turned out Saturday morning the person from title company called to setup closing time at our house. Even after closing, we still got an email from this mortgage company, asking my Company HR was I still employed ? Then they emailed asking if my house was damaged in Feb winter storm, sent them pictures of our house and signed declaration our house wasn't damaged. They stay true to their quoted numbers but the pain , lack of communications and disorganization make me hesitate to use them again. Only go if you are ok with very little communication

I had a friend just do a closing through Infinity recently and he had a good experience, so I decided to place my trust in them as well. From the very start, Jeanne Schull took the time to coach me on what I would need going into the approval, and what I should be doing to maximize my existing credit profile and rating. She was basically a financial adviser to me for a few months and it helped a lot in the end. As my pre-approval, then actual approval were taking place, I was ALWAYS kept in the loop by Jeanne and Anna Chambliss who handled a lot of the paperwork for me. I truly felt like they were working for me to get everything done as painless as possible and to keep me from stressing out (not an easy task with an 8 month pregnant wife and trying to close on a home). They were wonderful the whole way through and got me what I felt was a tremendous rate for a first time buyer with my credit. I would recommend them to anyone.

We were able to make the winning offer on our dream home thanks to E. Lee offering quick closing on our loan. The rates offered were great, he helped us rate lock at the perfect time in turbulent conditions, and the underwriting process couldn't have gone any smoother. We also ended up getting the best quote for homeowner's insurance from one of the brokers recommended by E. Lee's team. I won't hesitate to reach out to E. Lee for my future mortgage needs.
