Mark and the team and Fairway mortgage helped us through a very difficult realistate deal. If it wasn’t for their persistence and extra effort, we probably would have lost the house. I would recommend this buisiness to anybody.

Everything was very smooth and great except the last part that the closing "department" did not contact the title company on time and cost me extending my trip and missing my flight to be able to wire the money. I got the final figures less than 24 hours before closing!!!! Besides that, it was a good experience. Thanks for all the help!

I would highly recommend Mark and Fairway to anyone interested in a home loan.

I was introduced to Mark a couple of years ago. I had some negative marks on my credit which at the time was keeping me from qualifying for a mortgage. Mark took the time to discuss what needed addressed and suggestions on what to do to help improve my score to qualify. Simply put, listen to him, it worked. His guidance was dead on and had me qualified in a little over a year to get a home. Knowing we would not be able to business at that time, he still took the time to lend his guidance and advice. Mark Thomas and his team did a fantastic job from start to finish. He took the time to explain the process and what to expect from pre-qualification to closing. He and his staff are professional, courteous, knowledgeable and always available to answer questions. Their follow up is prompt whether by phone or email. You'll be updated on the status of your loan throughout the process so you know what is happening and when you can expect completion. I highly recommend Mark and his team to anyone looking for a mortgage. Thank you Mark and the Fairway Mortgage team!

Mark and his team at Fairway Mortgage were absolutely terrific! My wife and I came to Mark to purchase our first home. Needless to say, we knew very little about the process. However, Mark and his team guided us through the process making sure that we understood what was going on and that we were comfortable with it all the way through. Moreover, we were under a very tight time table because our apartment lease was expiring soon. Mark and his team did a wonderful job making sure that everything was completed correctly and quickly. In short, I would recommend Mark and Fairway Mortgage to anyone seeking lending services.

Fairway made this whole process very easy and friendly. Due to some miscommunication there was a break down in the process from our realtor's company and Mark and the crew at Fairway put it into high gear to get us closed in under 30 days due to our tight time frame. Everyone was professional and up front with information. Mark and the gang gave us our dream and our very first home. We highly recommended his services.

From the moment we met Mark Thomas he was extremely personable, friendly, and genuinely wanted to do everything possible to assist us. Mr. Thomas spent time talking with us one on one, identifying just what we wanted, and directing us in the best way to not only be able to afford a new home for our family, but also the most cost effective loan possible for us. He thoroughly explained each step of the process, took time to go through every possible cost relating to the our mortgage and closing costs, and patiently answered every question we asked. On more than one occasion paperwork was completed faster than originally quoted. Every phone call and email was responded to in a timely manner. Most returned within an hour answering all of our questions. Also, we were always kept up-to-date with emails telling us where we were in the loan approval process. Mark Thomas and everyone at Fairway Mortgage alleviated the stress and pressure of obtaining a new home loan. We would definitely use Mark Thomas again in any future mortgage needs as well as recommend him to others.

I first contacted Mark Thomas in early April to get his opinion on how to best go about refinancing a condominium, which I was purchasing on a land contract from an estate. I knew it might be tricky, because we had previously lost a home due to the bad economy, and a period of under-employment. Things were looking brighter from a job standpoint, and our credit was gradually bouncing back, but I did not know if we were even able to get a mortgage. Having had a positive experience with Fairway several years back, and knowing Mark personally for many years, I wanted to get the opinion of someone I could trust. Not even knowing if we could be financed, Mark took the time to go over every detail with me, and asked all the right questions. The conclusion he came to was that I was that I was a possible candidate for a VA or FHA loan, and that conventional financing was not an option at this juncture. Being a Veteran we were going to look at trying to secure a VA loan... Problem was that the VA typically will not finance condominiums. His recommendation was that we needed to start looking for a new home for my family. In short, his knowledge and professionalism was invaluable. By Mid April, my wife and I found a home that we wanted to purchase, but had not yet begun the pre-approval process for the VA loan. We were able to get the seller to to accept a conditional offer based on us getting pre-approval, but the clock was ticking. We met with Mark on April 20th, to start the loan approval process. Several things had to happen to get this deal done, and we were on a short time-table. VA loans typically take 3+ months from start to finish, and we did not have that amount of time to get it done. From the inception, Mark took control of the process, and saw it through to completion. He put together a game plan, made sure everyone was on the same page, and ensured that things were getting done in a timely manor. He coordinated all facets of the loan process, by keeping everybody in the loop, and conveying an appropriate sense of urgency. He worked with our Realtor to ensure expectations were being managed,deadlines were being met, and the sellers kept appraised. In the end, we moved in to our new home on June 22. A process which typically takes over three months, was completed in two months, due in large part to Mark Thomas, and his team at Fairway Independent Mortgage. I owe Mark a debt of gratitude, and would highly recommend his services to anyone seeking to finance a home.
