Leaman Team  |  LoanPeople

I worked with Max to purchase my first home and I would not hesitate to go back.

He gave me a good rate and I felt comfortable working with him. After meeting him in person (he came to the closing), I felt like he had my best interests in mind.

I’ve been in my house now for about 6 months — and couldn’t have done it without Max Leaman and team.

I started out thinking I was going to be a smart buyer and use one of those “online” mortgage brokers to find a good deal and process the home loan on my first ever home purchase.

Wow was that a mistake.

The other guys (whose name rhymes with “Frickin”) were really just low-rent sales people. When I had legitimate questions about my situation and my proposed loan they were slow to get back to me and didn’t give me straight answers.

Then I found Max Leaman.

Max’s team is second to none. Right after my first email conversation with a member of his team I felt more comfortable, and more like a person than with any other banks I’d spoken with.

I pretty much immediately filled out all of their prequalification items and had decided even before they gave me the rate that I was going to use them. The loan officer even identified something on my credit which HAD to be resolved prior to closing any loan — no one else had even mentioned this, and Max’s team pointed it out and provided advice on how to clear it up before I was ever obligated to do business with them.

Once I found my dream-home I promptly called the Leaman team and told them to get cranking on processing my loan — and crank they did! We closed in 30 days, and remember I’m a first time home buyer with an FHA loan and questionable previous credit. They made it happen!

Throughout the entire process I was kept informed, updated, and in-the-loop.

I really couldn’t ask for more out of a loan officer and I can’t recommend Max Leaman and team highly enough.

Just contacted them to get some information only.

Personalised service delivered with an engaging approach. “Can do” attitude throughout the process with a sense of humour that helped guide us through a challenging set of circumstances. Jori Stern and her team were excellent.

Max and his team are AWESOME!

Max was super responsive, always helpful, and made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Max and his people, and I wouldn’t hesitate to call on them again in the future.

I worked with Kristin throughout my home buying process.

I worked with Kristin throughout my home buying process. She was very helpful and easy to communicate with. Very responsive and gave me the best rates I could find. As a first time home buyer, she helped me understand each numbers shown on the estimates and disclosure.

Go above and beyond

Incredible experience. Max and his team made my home buying and mortgage experience as easily as possible. Max spent a lot of time figuring out how I could get the lowest interest rate. No one else would have done that.

Oh man do I have something to say about Lending…….What a wonderful experience I had!!!

Max Leaman and Janey are the definition of pro’s. Our closing was so smooth and the process is so user friendly. It almost seems like it didn’t happen. I was introduced to lending through my realtor, who was nervous about the lender I chose (just out of the air). They had quoted me at 4.25%-4.50%. Now I have to say I have a rough credit history, so I was willing to trust the rate given me. Then My Realtor said you have to call MAX LEAMAN!! “He is the best in town”. Max told me right off the bad I was getting a bad deal and said he could do 4% at least. The other company quickly matched it and grumbled about Max. The thing is if it was that easy why didn’t they do it in the first place? It was Max’s honesty that made me switch. Honesty and integrity. The following weeks were a constant Barrage of paperwork and signatures that Janey made so simple. She was hyper-available for any questions I had then they made my dream a reality. Oh…I almost forgot…that 4% I told you about…Max got me down to 3.75%! $40,000 savings in interest over my loan. There is a reason you’re the best in town and I’m living in it!!! A++++

Highly recommend Max Leaman

I was a first time homebuyer at the end of 09. Max Leaman was referred to us by a close friend and we are so thankful! With all the stress of the homebuying process, max made the loan the easiest part of the experience. He was incredibly organized and he constantly updated us about everything. we didn’t even have to ask. He also got us an incredible rate. most of all, Max was accessible and answered questions thoroughly, demystifying the whole mortgage process. h even showed up to the closing to make sure everything was taken care of. great service! we have already recommended him to friends and will surely use him again for our next home.

Pros: organized, friendly, attended closing, great rate
Cons: none

Provided great service when we wanted to refinance our home.

This was our second home refinance and Max made it as painless as he did the first time. He is great to work with and I always appreciate his responsiveness to any of our inquiries.
