What Our Clients Say
“The staff at Fairway Independent Mortgage is, in a word, OUTSTANDING. What makes them exceptional is they have a team that specializes in each part of the loan approval process, so you get expert advice every step of the way. Kristin gets the documents prepared for you, Tara and Kristi walk you through everything you need to get the loan approved, and Gretchen follows up on the closing of the loan. Each person calls and/or emails you offering any help needed along the way. Most importantly, they do it all with kindness, integrity, and joy. It is obvious they love what they do.”
