First Class Mortgage helped us to refinance our mortgage in less than 4 weeks. The people and the service cannot be beat. We will recommend to others and use them again in the future.

I am so glad I found First Class Mortgage on Angie’s List. Brady and Kevin are awesome to work with. My experience with them was amazing. The entire process from start to finish took about 2-1/2 weeks. Brady and Kevin truly take the time to get to know you and make you feel like family rather then a business contact. Very professional and communication is impeccable. I highly recommend First Class Mortgage.

I just closed my third mortgage with First Class Mortgage - and again, was very happy with the product, the people and the efficiency. Casey, Kevin, Susan, Daniel, and the rest of the team at First Class Mortgage are not only very good at what they do, but they are also easy and enjoyable to work with.

After having a mortgage through a big bank and being just another number, it was refreshing to work with First Class Mortgage. Everyone was very friendly and able to meet our tight schedule. Casey took the time to explain everything to us and ensure we were comfortable throughout the whole process. Would use them again!

Awesome!!! Jolene made the process easy, stress free and she spoke to my wife and I kindly and respectfully when it came to the technical loan terms and she explained everything so it made total sense. I would 100 percent recommend anyone to go see Jolene if you need any kind of a mortgage! Jolene knows her stuff and is awesome and most of all easy to work with. Oh and Jolene and First Class Mortagage beat all the other Mortgage companies prices on rates and fees when I compared them to other companies and online rates. By far best, cheapest and best customer service around!!!!!

First Class Mortgage helped my husband and I secure financing for our new home. The process could not have gone more smoothly. Jolene and Brady kept us informed through every step of the process, and we are confident they worked in our interest to find the best lending solution for us. I highly recommend First Class Mortgage for new loans and even refis.

Refinanced my VA loan through First Class Mortgage. Casey and Bobbi were friendly and really made the process easy and smooth. Most of the paperwork was able to be uploaded online securely, and initial forms could be signed online using digital signatures. They were also able to get me a better rate than USAA. The closing went really quickly and smoothly. I would recommend First Class Mortgage again.

I was extremely nervous since I was a first home buyer, and I was purchasing solo. First Class Mortgage knew this, and they were very understanding of it; they wanted to ensure I was comfortable throughout the whole process. Whenever I had a question - they were more than willing to answer it. If I did not understand something - they were patient and re-explained until I got it. They were attentive, responsive, professional and most of all - reassuring. They went above and beyond what any big, corporate, mortgage company would ever do, and isn't that what you want when you're making such a huge decision in your life? The answer is yes! A special thanks to the members of my team - Sheri, Brady, Kevin and Susan!!
Response from First Class Mortgage
"Thanks again, [Member Name Removed] for trusting us with this huge milestone in your life. Buying a home, especially for the first time, can be a nerve-racking experience. We are glad we could make the process smooth for you. Take care, and we hope you are enjoying your new home!"

I worked with Casey and Kevin and I can't thank them enough, along with the rest of the team, for making the process so much easier. I got a great rate and only needed to provide a single set of documentation at the beginning of the application. No last minute surprises and closed right on schedule. I highly, highly recommend First Class Mortgage!!

This is the second time I worked with Casey, Kevin, Susan, Daniel, and the team at First Class. They are responsive in person, by email and on the phone. I was very happy with the mortgage rates I was able to get. They were awesome getting my pre-approval letters together fast. Great follow-up, and I never felt any questions I asked were dumb.

Casey was outstanding and made everything so easy. Was very thorough with what we needed to provide and explained all phases of the refinance process so there were no questions. Three days before closing he contacted us to let us know that he was able to get us a lower rate without any costs to us, I feel like this is something that would have been overlooked with one of the "Big Bank" mortgage team. Would highly recommend First Class to anyone looking to Refi

I just completed my second refinance working with Brady Day at First Class Mortgage.  It was another great experience!  Brady’s approach to customer engagement is like non-other!  He picks up the phone (rather than the annoying, time consuming back and forth through email), asks detailed questions, and pulls together options.  His presentation of the details is clear and thorough.  Let’s not forget his patience and professionalism while working through my list of questions!  I would highly recommend First Class Mortgage, you won't be disappointed!

Very well. I have worked with Casey VanWinkle over the last 4 years, and have done a sale, purchase, and two refinances with him - one being a cash out refinance. Casey has made the process very easy, and explained in detail all of the steps as we have gone through them. He has a dedicated staff working with him to gather documents and do timely follow up. I was referred to Casey, and have sent referrals his way as well. Would definitely recommend working with Casey.

First Class Mortgage was such a great experience for us.  Susan and Casey kept us in the loops at all times with everything up until our closing date.  We had a few bumps in the road, but Susan and Casey worked really hard and fought to make sure we made it to closing!  They answered any and all questions we had promptly and were extremely helpful.  They made the first time home buying process very easy.  They truly care about their clients and went above and beyond any expectations that we had.  They will always have our referrals to friends, family, coworkers because of their outstanding work ethics and customer service!  Susan, Casey, and everyone else at First Class Mortgage, you are the BEST! Thank you!

Casey and Susan were very professional and friendly.  Easy to work with given our unique needs.  We felt comfortable and well taken care of.  I have personally worked with many mortgage companies over the years - big and small, having been a part of a real-estate company.  I was terrifically impressed with their knowledge and skill set and ability to simply "make it work."  I would recommend them to anyone and will most certainly look to them in the future as needs arise.
