We used the civil servant VMAP program through Brightleaf Mortgage and we couldn't be happier with our experience. Even in this crazy market they were able to provide a great rate compared to other lenders we checked. Customer service was top notch and communication was great. I would absolutely recommend Brightleaf! Thank you for all your help!

This isn’t my first time refinancing a mortgage. But then difference in this one vs the past was Cory. He made this so easy. He was always available, always had an answer quickly and was wonderful to work with. Quick and easy close. I highly recommend Cory and Brightleaf.

I found out about Brightleaf Mortgage through work. I am a teacher and received an email about the Virginia Mortgage Assistance Program through Brightleaf Mortgage that was created for civil servants. When my husband and I first started the application process, we were just taking things slow and casually looking at houses online here and there. We never felt pressured by Cory, but he was always available to answer any questions we had. When we finally did find a home we liked, Cory worked very hard and fast to get the ball rolling. Cory and Derrick were both very personable and pleasant to work with. We are first time home buyers and no matter how many questions we asked, they were both ready and willing to answer anything we threw at them! I would recommend Brightleaf Mortgage to anyone looking to buy a house. We plan to go through them again in the future to refinance when rates go down.

Derrick and Cory with Brightleaf have been amazing. I first tried a different mortgage company and they could not get me to the amount I needed. I tried Brightleaf and they did everything they could to get me what I needed for my house. They went above and beyond and were available almost any time I had a question and if they weren't, they answered promptly the next morning. I am so thankful for what they were able to do in being able to help us get our home, especially amidst the loss of my mother. The beautiful arrangement they sent showed how much they care about their customers.

We refinanced our home through Brightleaf Mortgage. Derrick Ford is a wonderful person to work with. He spent the time and gave us the information; he didn't push us into a decision, but he did help us find the best option for us. And the process of completing the paperwork was made simple and convenient. Brightleaf is focused on their clients best interests and not on closing a deal for their own gain. I highly recommend Brightleaf Mortgage.

I have had the pleasure of working with these guys for over 6 months now and I couldn't be more pleased! As a real estate professional, it is key for me to have my clients taken care of from start to finish and even beyond! Cory and Derrick did it!! The relationship they have built with not only me, but with my clients is priceless! Never once did they make my clients feel beneath them. Always easy to get along with, always available for texts or phone calls, and really does a fantastic job getting us to the finish line!! Thank you both so much for working with me and helping my clients become homeowners!!

The entire Brightleaf team was excellent to work with, and very attentive to our needs. Everything was processed promptly, and they were able to answer all of our questions. We even got a follow up call after we closed just to make sure we got into our new home and didn’t need anything additional. If we ever go through the home buying process again, we will only use Brightleaf. You feel like you are their only client, unlike many of the other mortgage companies in the area.

James is an incredibly friendly and effective mortgage broker! I approached James with a unique situation (currently living abroad and moving to richmond), and he was able to not only walk me through every step of the process, but also deliver on time when our timeline suddenly moved up. James and his team are a joy to work with, and were so responsive to my questions. I honestly had a perfectly pleasant first time mortgage experience thanks to James, something that you don't see often. If I'm ever back in the market, James and Brightleaf will be my first call.
