Can't say enough good things! When it came time to refinance our home my husband and I had a lot of questions about the entire process. Austin was able to answer all our questions, translate the mortgage jargon into real English, he was easy to communicate with, stuck with us for an entire year waiting for interest rates to drop and sending us updates regularly, he was knowledgeable, and gave good advice every step of the way. On top of all of that Austin is super friendly and down to earth, it's was like having a friend to go through all these daunting tasks with and we really appreciated that!

Austin was a fantastic loan officer who helped me every step of the way through my purchase of my vacation home in Arizona! I price shopped with a few lenders and his rate and fees were significantly better. His service and guidance through the process was thorough and really helped me understand what was going on. I highly recommend!

I was a first time home buyer and a friend of mine recommended Austin since she had such a positive experience working with him. I'm so glad! He went above and beyond to make this process as stress-free as possible for me. He answered all my questions promptly, made sure I fully understood every step, and always prioritized what was in my best interest. I am so grateful I was connected with somebody this knowledgeable, personable, and professional. Thank you for all your help!

Austin was extremely helpful in understanding my situation and giving me the best advice. He listened to my goals and what I was planning on doing with the property, and he walked me through all my options clearly. He helped me lower my rate by a significant amount and guided me toward a property that made the most sense for my long-term goals. I recently closed on a rental property, and I wouldn't have had a chance to secure this asset without his help.

Exceptional, Stellar and outstanding. Austin took a confusing situation I found myself in and turned it around to serve me in the best way. I had funding in a matter of hours. Austin is attentive to each person and what will absolutely serve their needs and best interests. He is very efficient and at the same time works with a personalized warmth and an ease that can only come from having a real working knowledge of the resources available to fit each situation, and lots of experience. He will be a part of my team going forward.

Austin is one of the most accessible mortgage brokers I've worked with in many years. Extremely knowledgeable, hard working and committed to a smooth transaction and closing on time! He has access to loan products others do not and my clients like and respect him. Phenomenal lender!

I worked with Seattle Mortgage Pros and had a genuinely smooth, straightforward experience. Austin was clear, fast with communication, and walked me through every step without any pressure. He found me a rate that easily beat the national lenders I compared against, and he laid everything out in a way that actually made sense. What I appreciated most was how proactive he was — always a step ahead, always available, and always transparent. The whole process felt efficient and stress-free from start to finish. If you want someone who actually knows the market and advocates for you instead of just pushing numbers, I'd highly recommend working with him.

As a first time home buyer, Austin was very helpful in explaining the process to me. We were able to close in 30 days, and locked in an amazing interest rate. Austin was very transparent with me every step of the way, and was always available to answer a text or a call within a moments notice, great customer service, and amazing work!
