I am a local Austin REALTOR and listing agent who had the pleasure of working alongside the Josh Brown team who helped the buyer for my South Austin listing. I truly appreciated the clear communication and constant updates and was never left in the unknown. Working with the Josh Brown team was a pleasure and made me feel more confident for my sellers throughout the process. Thank you for your hard work and professionalism, I truly appreciate everything!

Josh Brown Team at Fairway will be our go-to mortgage company for as long as we buy and sell in Texas. As busy as Josh is, he took his time to patiently explain the entire loan process to us. Despite the challenges of our situation (closing less than a month, being on a Mediterranean cruise for 12 days, and no phone communication) Josh and his team stayed ahead every step of the way. As the result of their dedication, we closed on time with the best interest rate.

Josh and his team have been fantastic to work with. Initially we approached Josh for some advice on some hypothetic scenarios we were facing and without asking us to commit to anything he kindly shared his advice - no hard sell. After a bit of time it became clear that one of those scenarios was indeed going to play out so we enlisted Josh's services. He walked us through the process, offered great advice and insight and we ended up with a solution we were happy with. Thanks to Josh and his team for the consultative approach, the honestly and the attention to detail - great customer experience.

What an absolutely amazing experience I had with the Josh Brown Team at Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation. They played an intricate lead role in saving my property while going through one of the roughest times in my life, a divorce. I was awarded the house, but I had to buy my ex-spouse out and it had to be done before a deadline, or I could lose it all. I was approved by three other lenders, but I could not go to closing without a final divorce decree. I had an iron clad mediated settlement agreement between my spouse and I, but still to no avail would the previous approved lenders accept it. I had just about given up hope and decided to record a video inside and outside of my dream home that I was on the verge of losing. I wanted the memories to look back at. I prayed to God and stepped out on faith knowing that I had to continue to search for a lender that would accept my agreement. My newly acquired divorce attorney, Miguel Castillo from the law office of KIRKER / DAVIS in Austin, Texas referred me to the Josh Brown Team and from there is when I finally felt like I still had a fighting chance to meet the deadline which was approximately less than three weeks away. The Josh Brown team worked closely with my lawyer and stayed in constant communication with me every step of the way. They never promised me that I would get the loan but promised me they would work hard to make it happen if they could and their word stood strong. A DREAM team came at me from all angles, Josh Brown (Senior Loan Officer), Ashley Stevens (Branch Processor), and Rachael Taylor (Assistant to Josh Brown). This team in turn worked with others behind the scenes to brainstorm and collaborate on my behalf. When I hit a small snag in the process, I was told not to worry and to let them do what they do best and that is go back and brainstorm that snag. My mediated settlement agreement was accepted, all paperwork was approved, Stewart Title Company rearranged their schedule, and I closed by my deadline. I had just felt like I came off a roller coaster and now breathing and crying a sigh of relief. I get to keep my house! I have never experienced such professionalism and a team who I've never met before that cared so much about their client. I firmly believe that God opened up the doors for me and God can open them up for you too through the Josh Brown Team at Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation. "What you think is a setback, is a set up for a greater come back." Thank You, Josh Brown Team. It was a pleasure, and you are truly appreciated.
