Austin Wade was exceptional to work with! We are first time home buyers and we felt very comfortable working with him. Austin did an amazing job of walking us through the home loan process, the numbers, and gave us frequent updates regarding our monthly mortgage estimates and current interest rates! We truly feel that Austin had our best interest in mind. He was easy to get ahold of, quick to respond to our questions, and never made us feel like we were dumb for asking questions! In our opinion, he is a first time home buyer’s dream loan officer. We cannot recommend Austin enough. We will certainly be returning to him for any future home loan needs!

I worked with Austin, who was amazing and capable. He explained everything thoroughly, gave me information but never forced a decision, and was FAST! Highly suggested.

Outstanding Mortgage Experience with Austin Wade!
Working with Austin was hands-down one of the best parts of our homebuying experience. From the very first conversation, he was knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely committed to helping us find the best loan option for our situation.
He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all our (many!) questions with patience, and kept us updated at every step. What could have been a stressful process felt smooth and manageable thanks to Austin’s calm approach and attention to detail.
We’re now in a home we love, and Austin played a huge role in making that happen. We’re incredibly grateful — and we’d recommend him without hesitation to anyone going through the mortgage process.

Couldn't be happier with the whole process! Austin was honest and always kept us in the loop! Went above and beyond to make sure all our questions & concerns were answered. Too bad this WILL be our last home buying experience! (forever home) if it wasn't we'd certainly use First Colony & Austin again!

My wife and I worked with Austin. He is a great communicator and really helped guide us through the process of our first mortgage. He stays on top of things and goes the extra mile. Highly recommend.

Austin did a great job with our home loan and was extremely patient and flexible with us. Not only was there a lot of extra work with my situation, but we took our time looking for the right home and didn’t feel like we were being forced into doing anything we didn’t want to. Amazing experience and highly recommend.

Austin was awesome to work with!! As young first time home buyers he made sure we completely understood everything before moving onto the next step. He was available every step of the way to help us understand. He was so friendly and an awesome communicator. He exceeded our expectations! We ended up with the option to close early, and everything ended up costing less than the original estimate! I highly recommend him!

Communication, attentiveness, it was all great. But then it wasn’t when I read my breakdown for cost—close to $13k in fees compared to the competition. Not joking. I asked the staff to be straight with me and trim their fees. They didn’t. The staff knew I was comparing offers, and they also knew I was leaning more towards their competition. They didn’t notify me they requested an appraisal, just emailed me the bill instead. So, since I was on a tight deadline, I paid for the appraisal to be sent over to the other company I was working with since the appraisal was completed. After all said and done, a professional birdy whispers in my ear telling me FC shouldn’t have ordered the appraisal without telling me….. sigh. FC & state bank double-dipped me just to keep the green dollar bill flowing, so all for money and you get a Zero star if I could. Now I have a sour, rotten taste in my mouth and it feels this taste will last forever. Stay clear of these bozos.

Austin was a delight to work with! He is extremely punctual and timely. He also is very thorough. He’s been very helpful filling us in through the processes which has made this a great experience! He doesn’t pressure at all, he’s very honest and even helped in comparing rates to ensure we got the best deal. Fantastic experience I’d recommend him to anyone buying a home!
