My husband and I truly appreciated working with Ann Richardson and Community Lending of America. She did a thorough job of explaining things, responding to our questions and keeping us in the loop on every issue concerning the loan process. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a home loan. She's great!!

After closing mortgages with at least 3 different lenders over the past few years, my experience with Community Lending of America and Kevin Fisk was the BEST. Mr. Fisk was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. The whole process was well organized and easy to navigate. Will work with them again!

Our lender, James Zeller was so helpful, always accessible, and ready to assist! Jim would respond via text, email, or phone calls, there was never a time I couldn’t reach him! Because of his willingness to help put out small fires, my client closed without delay on time! Thanks James!

Navigating the mortgage loan process is complicated. As a self-employed, small business owner I was required to jump through some additional hoops. Mr. Zeller's excellent communication throughout the entire process was key to maintaining momentum to achieve a 30 day closing. I'm very happy with the service I received from Mr. Zeller's team at Community Lending of America.

This is the first house I've bought coming out of my divorce. Community Lending of America made the whole process very simple. Ann Richardson was my backbone and support through this whole process. She always kept me up to date and informed with everything that was happening. She handled all the steps and made my life easy. I thank you all for an awesome experience. Thank you!

Wife and I decided to jump back into the home market. The whole process from start to finish went smooth. Kevin Fisk and the gang did an excellent job of answering all of our questions. We decided to use my VA benefits and it couldn't have been easier. We found our dream home and have settled in nicely.

Working with Ann made the home buying process so easy! I am a first time homebuyer so she took the time to explain things every step of the way. She was patient with me when I asked a long list of questions and was always available when I needed information to help guide my decision. I am so thankful to have found such a helpful team to work with and I would recommend Ann with Community Lending of America to everyone.

Closed on our home in May 2022 with much help from the team at Community Lending of America. Jeremy Marks and his team were a pleasure to work with during the entire process of buying a home with my wife. He was able to answer all of our questions happily (we had many as first time home owners), and never seemed annoyed. I wasn't even in the same state during the whole process but Jeremy and his team kept us updated and made sure everything went smoothly. Jeremy was always available for a quick call or text and he explained the different fees associated with purchasing a home and the next steps involved which I really appreciated. I'm pretty sure I asked him the same questions multiple times but he always answered them with grace and the same enthusiasm. From start to finish, it felt like working with a group of friends that really had your back and best interests at heart. Would definitely recommend them for future home owners and we will be using them again for our next home!Shout out to Michelle Brace as well for keeping my wife and I updated and on schedule!

Hi,Just wanted to thank Jeremy and his team for all the help. I can’t express in words how much helpful he was during my sister’s house buying process. My sister was a first time home buyer and he helped her guided her and was patiently answering all the questions we had.For him his clients are important and we felt valuable during the entire process. He was definitely holding our hands until we closed her house. One thing I liked a lot about him was that he doesn’t wait until the last minute to get everything done. He is responsible, kind and friendly and honest who cares about people.Michelle was kind and nice and always available for anything we needed during lending process. She responds to emails right away.

I worked with Kevin Fisk on my VA Loan. From pre-approval to closing on my house, was just a little over 2 months. He made everything very clear and was very quick to respond to any of my emails or calls. Only thing I would have done different is gone with a realtor who was just as well versed in the VA loan as he is. I highly recommend, especially if you’re using your VA benefit.

Chris Brooks

We worked with Kevin and he is very knowledgeable, patient, professional, trustworthy, always made time to answer any concerns or questions we had, he's just a really good guy. I would recommend him and Community Lending of America to any of my friends. Thank you for the excellent service!!!

I worked with Jim on the refinance of my home and he did a great job! He is relaxed yet engaging which is a great combination when working through something like a cash-out refi. I'm a Realtor and am now recommending Jim to my clients when they are looking for properties. He's a solid dude and I'm glad to have him as a resource for all of my lending needs and questions! I highly recommend him!

My husband & I have been working with Ann for over 6 years. She has answered every question we asked & stayed in contact. She never made us feel like we couldnt; it just wasnt the right time! She helped us learn what we needed to do in order to purchase our first home, and just recently we were finally able to make it happen! Ann is patient, kind & knowledgable. She will also answer questions even after closing! You will not be disappointed in contacting her or her team for assistance.

We refinanced our home through Community America. We were lucky to find Kevin Fisk through a Vetted VA group on Facebook. We refinanced from a 30 year FHA to a 15 year VA loan. His communication was awesome! We talked to a few other loan officers before him. The others couldn't compare. He was the first to give us a written loan estimate and was so easy to work with. He made it a point to keep us informed of each step. A lot of the times, it was he who initiated the conversation. We always felt in the loop. He will be the first person we contact for any future mortgage needs. We are very happy customers!

Bryan Lange

Kevin Fisk went above and beyond to keep things on track for our closing date in late October 2021. We had a few hiccups along the way, but Kevin worked tirelessly to make sure things were correct in the end. Can’t recommend working with him enough. Thanks for your efforts Kevin!

Kevin Fisk did wonders for us buying out of state. A true professional and worked his tail off to get us what we wanted.

Pauline Heath

Kevin Fisk is hands down, the most amazing mortgage wizard. My husband and I were pointed in Kevin's direction as we geared up to purchase our very first home and boy did we luck out. The process was stressful, inherently, but Kevin was every bit of the calm, cool, collected opposing force to all the craziness. He was an endless source of knowledge who happily answered questions, quelled concerns, and explained nuances in layman's terms. After we closed, I directed a co-worker to him as she was seeking to refinance and now she is singing his praises as well.

Josh at community lending at the overland lark office was great. He did a great job keeping us informed and answering any questions we had. Either a first time home buyer or buying your second he is great to work with. All of the costs were up front and they ended up coming in at a lower amount at closing, win win there. Have recommended community lending to anyone that is looking to purchase or refinance. Great team and truly want to work for you!!

Our experience with Community Lending was pretty much perfect. Our loan officer, James Zeller, was excellent. He communicated well, answered questions promptly, was thorough, and took care of us every step of the way.

Kevin Fisk has been working with me for 4 months to get my mortgage deal closed. Kevin is going to make sure you have everything set before you get to underwriting. It's a very thorough process and he truly keeps the communication flowing to ensure that everything does happen. He has many clients to serve and I always felt that he was there, only for me. These folks do a great job, they shoot straight, and they do whatever they can to ensure your closing. They will get the job done well. Very pleased.

Rhonda Culvahouse

Where do I begin? Bill has been amazing through this whole process…answering any and all questions, no matter how big or small, he was always quick to answer any questions we may have! He was available through call, text, email whatever was convenient for US! He sent out an email telling us from the get go what he would need to submit our loan. He was very professional….but never made us feel like just “another borrower” we felt like life long friends. Bill & his team did amazing! The biggest getting us to closing in just 4 VERY short weeks! He went well above and beyond for us and I’d highly recommend him to any family, friend, or stranger!Bill, thank you for all your hard work and dedication into getting us into our new home.

Kevin Fisk - I would like to acknowledge the exceptional service that I received during the entire home loan process. Kevin is trustworthy, professional and his knowledge of the industry was impressive and truly appreciated. I work for a financial industry and still I used Kevin as my loan mortgage broker and I made no mistake. You wouldn't believe until you deal !!Kevin went above and beyond to ensure that all of my needs were met. He went out of his way to make sure I got the best available loan at the lowest possible rate. He handled everything thoroughly and efficiently. I have and will continue to recommend him in the future.I could not have done this without him being a first time home buyer.I will be using him without a doubt in my next home loan process.

Ann Richardson and her team are wonderful. She was always very quick to respond, multiple times on the weekend, during my attempt to purchase a home over the past year and a half. The market is nuts, so we had several opportunitites to work together. She is resourceful and answers questions immediately. Ann has great positive energy and makes you enjoy working with her. She made the buying process as least painful as possible!

Brandy Bedford

21:15 06 Aug 21

We wouldn't be in our new home without all the hard work of Ann Richardson & Community Lending. As first time home buyers we were lost as to what to do & with the crazy market it only made the stress worse. But Ann was there every step of the way & always made herself available at all hours to answer any questions we had & always kept us up to date. We can't thank her enough for going above & beyond what she needed to to for us to get us in our new home as quickly & smoothly as possible.

Julie Kelly

19:58 25 Jul 21

We financed our first home in 2017 and tried to refinance with the same lender in late 2020 to take advantage of lowering our interest rate and potentially our monthly payment as well. We ended up getting the run around with that lender wanting us to spend several hundred dollars on appraisals and inspections for no apparent reason. Then, some friends posted on Facebook about their positive experience with CLA and we decided to reach out to see if they could help simply the process of refinancing for us. We worked with Christian Huesers and we’re very satisfied with how it all worked out! (No unnecessary appraisal or unnecessary fees.) We now have a lower interest rate and lower monthly payment, and Christian at CLA made the process as simple as possible.

Gina M

AWESOME work by Kevin in securing our home loan for my family! He made what seemed impossible, possible! I would recommend Kevin and his company every time!

21:43 21 Jul 21

It's no-longer a DREAM: Over 5 years in the making with hope starting to fade, Kevin Fisk and his team made it possible for my family to transition from a renter status to a home owner! After years of bouncing from lender to lender promising to help veterans utilize their VA benefit, we stumbled upon an organization that has held true to their word. From the beginning, Kevin made it clear that my case would be difficult YET he never ran. He stood beside us, coaching me through every step. Constantly updating me on the progress (even on his vacation in another country) which instilled the confidence that he would see us through. I put my faith in him and Community Lending of America and they answered the call. I am forever indebted to the stranger who made my promise to my family real. The level of customer CARE still leaves me breathless and with tears in my eyes; a complete stranger who refused to quit for an easier path. You were God sent! Thank you and for what you/your company stands for! For those of you reading this, look no further...you have found the spot.

Eric Mewhinney

13:32 01 Jul 21

Jeremy and his team were fantastic to work with. They were very helpful in explaining all the details of the process. I would highly recommend CLA. Everything went very smoothly and painlessly! I will definitely use Jeremy and team for our next home purchase!

I worked with Kevin Fisk and I honestly couldn't say anything a bad thing about it! He was knowledgeable, friendly and very responsive! I was so overwhelmed being a first time home buyer and he made the whole process a breeze! (as much as buying a house can be a breeze) I will highly recommend Kevin and Community Lending of America as a whole to anyone I know buying especially first time home buyers!

Erica Isenberg

16:02 29 Apr 21

Our Realtor referred us to Jeremy Marks and team when we wanted to close on a tighter deadline than the bank could offer. We discussed a date and what was expected on the initial call and all criteria were met! Great experience and communication throughout the process which is all we could ask for.

Joshua Wallingford

15:34 27 Apr 21

I've used the CLoA team's services a few times now and they are just stellar. Definitely recommend them for buying or refinancing. Great people, quick service, and they are truly looking out for your best interests.

My man Josh Hanus was on point with every question I had and if he didn't have an answer right then, I was guaranteed one by the end of the next day. He fielded all of my naive questions patiently and went above and beyond in making sure I locked in the best rate possible, even giving me a heads up when I was in danger of losing it.I will absolutely be recommending Josh to all my people needing home loans in the future.

Worked with Kevin Fisk on a mortgage refinance and the experience has been nothing short of amazing. He explained everything and really took the time to answer all of my questions. When we finally decided to go for it, he was fast to respond and the whole process was so easy. I would have never expected to have the process done so quickly. 10/10 would recommend!!

Lindsay Edwards

21:02 21 Jan 21

I don’t know where to begin to express how amazing Kevin Fisk at Community Lending is.Long story. My husband is a Veteran and a small business owner, I am a school nurse. In the year of 2020 and a pandemic, where everything that could go wrong and has, we needed to buy a home.We have worked with a total of four lenders in a year long process. The first lender went on vacation for 7 days, 2 days prior to closing and did not finish documents for underwriting. We lost the house. The second lender, “the wolf, the cleaner” decided that he was too busy with refi’s and easy home loans that he no longer wanted to work with us because our loan process was much more difficult. It took him four months to make that decision. The third lender was on it. We were told this is easy, you will close no problem just go find your perfect home. That was easier said than done. During the Covid pandemic, EVERYONE wanted to move, and lenders are much more strict and scrutinizing.We finally found our home! We had to wait to close for 60 days due to the seller building their home, which was no problem for us. On the day of closing, we finished our walk through, headed to the bank to get the cashier’s check for final closing costs, and I was notified that this lender could no longer fund our home loan. We received that devastating phone call at 11:30am when we were scheduled to close at 2 pm. Devastated, angry, and confused does not begin to express what we were feeling. The reason it failed… We are a small business owner during a pandemic needing a VA loan. The due diligence we were guaranteed was not honored and adding insult to injury, this lender gave our information and documents to a ‘friend of his” before ever notifying us that we would not be closing on our home.Enter Duke Frye, my God send of a realtor and Kevin Fisk, a guardian angel. Duke referred us to Kevin. He had worked with him before on difficult home loans and trusted him. Kevin contacted me 1 hour after receiving that horrible news. The only promise he made… I will do everything I can, I will be honest with you, and if we can’t do it now; we will come up with a plan to do it in the near future. He kept his word.It took 14 days due to a holiday. Several long conversations to help us better understand the process, and a man with integrity who kept his word. He became as invested in this process as we were and he worked tirelessly to help us close on our dream home.We will FOREVER be grateful to Kevin and his team. We will refer him to everyone and I will only work with him in the future. With sincerest of gratitude, Thank you Kevin. If there are awards given in your industry, you deserve the highest of accolades, and a ginormous raise. You are an asset to Community lending and more importantly, to people like my husband and myself.Thank you so much for all of your time, effort and integrity,Michael and Nicola Pistone

Josh H was fantastic with our refinance!! From start to finish he made it simple and easy and by easy I mean as painless as possible! Any stressful moments he handled with utmost professionalism. From a communication standpoint he was superb....keeping us in the loop and letting us know anything he needed. He was quick and precise, getting us the best rate. He answered my MANY questions with patience and understanding!I have and will continue to refer my friends to CLA and Josh H for all home lending needs!!!

I just did a refi with Community Lending of America. Jeremy Marks and his team are second to none. The refi process can a nerve racking experience, but not that way at CLA. It made it easy that the team was always available. I do not think I ever went a half hour at most to hear back from them on any request. I even ended up day before with a slightly lower rate. A great surprise!

I worked with CLA on a purchase. The process was smooth, painless, and fast. They were clear to close 2 weeks early with a rate that was 1/2% less than I expected. My monthly payment was $120 less than anticipated!Amazing experience. 10/10. If 6 stars was an option, I'd click it.

This is a really great place to go for your mortgage. I recently bought a house and went through this company. My lender Ann Richardson went above and beyond to help get my loan set up and make sure I understood everything she was telling me. I would highly recommend going through Ann to get your loan

Kevin Fisk was the advocate I never knew I needed. From day one his honesty and encouragement marked the pace of this journey and today it feels so much like a joint victory in the end! He asked all the right questions and answered questions I did not know to ask! Record-breaking response times are the hallmark of his work and nothing was ever left unexplained. I took notes the first time we talked and every word rang true with each step! Thank you for helping make my dream a reality even in this crazy climate! I look forward to sharing my story with others so that they can see what a difference the right company can make when finding a mortgage from start to finish is the goal!

If you are looking to buy a home or even refinance Community Lending of America is the place to go! We personally worked with Ann during the entire process of purchasing our home and then refinancing as well, and she was absolutely flawless! She made the process so easy, found us the best deal, and throughout all the questions, paperwork, and any setbacks she worked hard to get every detail perfect. I could not refer her and this company enough to anyone who is looking for help with buying a home! This process was amazing and almost completely stress free because of Ann and her company! If I could give 10 stars I definitely would!

We worked directly with Ryan Lehew at CLAK and he was fantastic! He was able to help us decide which mortgage options would be best for us and he walked us through the entire process. Purchasing a home is a huge decision and we had lots of questions; Ryan was available to us 7 days per week and responded to text messages, emails, etc very quickly regardless of whether it was during normal business hours. I have since recommended him to everyone who is purchasing or refinancing a home.

I have known Jeremy Marks for many years now and consider him a good friend. He is the epitome of the golden rule. If you want honesty and integrity for a loan officer, you've come to the right place. I only offer reviews on people I have done business with myself and he is someone I trust with my friends and family. If you ever need a mortgage, Jeremy and his staff will take care of you like you should be treated.
