Customer service was very good. You were all very understanding to situations that we were unable to do, and got us through it all. Contact even with Jacob was great he was always there for us! We were getting frustrating with some things we had to do , but JACOB was awesome! Made us calm down and relax that he would help and get it done. Also not having to drive for our closing g was the top!

Olan and his team were in it for me... not what they stood to gain. They are genuine and caring!! A trait that unfortunately escapes many in the business world today. My circumstances were "not the norm", and they went above and beyond for me in countless ways... To say thank you seems inadequate. I was truly BLESSED!!

Very simple, you got the job done. There were some minor hiccups that could have been avoided with better communications but all in all the loan was handled very professionally.

Great rates, and very easy to work with. Jacob Lowder was always very responsive. Every time I had a question sent via email to him, he would take the time to call me instead of responding to an email. That was a great personal touch that was very appreciated.

Okay, it sounds hokey to say a mortgage company can give amazing service. I mean usually it's just one of the millions of contacts you juggle during the process of buying a home and you probably don't remember it within a month or so of moving in. Not so with Olan and his team. Such great service- definitely over and above what I expected!

In a world of answering machines and impersonal technology, Fairway Mortgage was a, good old-fashioned, face to face Oasis as we walked through the confusing mortgage hunting and closing process. We could not have been more pleased with their service and attention to us. We would highly recommend them to anyone needing mortgage help.

I had never heard of Fairway Independent Mortgage Company before, but I decided to call to see where it would lead me. I spoke to Olan Carder, and after our initial conversation I knew I was in good hands. Olan is knowledgeable, and made Home Ownership easy, educational, and exciting. The client service, processing, and underwriting team was amicable, helpful, and very patient with me during the process. I would like to Thank you all, and pray blessings upon the Company's future success!

The best part about working with Olan is his promptness in returning calls and answering questions. I have been a client for many years and he always has always made time for me even when it was just a question. In the electronic age where everything seems to be done via email and the internet, it is great to be able to get in touch with a person who can answer questions directly. I hope to be able to work with him again in the future.

The service was GREAT...but I selected "just ok" because I didn't care for the mass of emails. Not including pre-approval, I counted 22 separate emails. Possibly consolidate emails to try and keep a consistent message topic that can be referenced throughout the process?
