We recommend James to everyone looking for a lender. He went out of his way to make sure we got the best rates, and he has done that for everyone we know who has used him. His staff are incredibly attentive, great at follow-up, and very courteous. Seriously, you will not regret using James! James was exemplary in all his activities.
He even came to our home for our convenience when necessary to ensure actions were completed in a timely manner. He delivered satisfactorily in all his commitments, explained in detail all actions we needed to take and kept us informed of every step in the process. As a Realtor, and when it came to processing my personal loan needs, I came to James.

Services
James starts with the simple philosophy - "Do what's best for the client every single time." This means taking a consultant approach to mortgage lending. Every client of will receive an in-depth consultation so the loan is packaged to meet your goals. James married his bride, Pamela, in 1990. He graduated from Lamar University in 1994 with a BS in Marketing.
At Upward Home Loans, you will be our client for life. We believe that it's our responsibility to assist you in managing the largest indebtedness that you're ever going to take on in your life. Most people that do what I do for a living, provide you with the debt and then you don't ever hear from them again, they walk away after they've gotten paid.
James and his team have been closing loans for my clients for over 5 years now. Every single time, they get the job done no matter how big the challenge. And, if you are looking for financial advice, James is a great resource when weighing your loan options. I highly recommend Upward Home Loans to anyone serious about purchasing or refinancing their home.

I purchased my first home with James and he was with me every step of the way. He guided me through the whole process. After purchasing our home, he stays in contact to assist in any way he can. We have already started to plan the purchase of another home and James is helping again! I am very happy with the services I have received through Upward Home Loans! Definitely recommend!!!

James and his team are a 1st rate organization. Makes the home buying process a breeze. You won’t find a better team to work with. This is the 2nd home he has helped me purchase if I ever need another home loan I won’t hesitate to use him again. Truly a team that goes above and beyond all expectations.

James and staff have been excellent. They helped me with the purchase of my first home and refinance a year later since rates dropped even more. Thanks for all of your help and advise, much appreciated. Especially when you are not familiar with terms of paperwork involved. It was a smooth transaction and closing was done rapidly. Very pleased, I would recommend them to anyone looking to buy or refinance a home.

Great folks to work with and they delivered an easy to follow process, expediting our refinance. They kept me updated with everything, including making certain I understand what they needed from me, when they needed it, and why they needed it. Awesome handholding and white glove treatment. Lastly, Rick and his team made you feel important and clarified all the questions I had.

James was an outstanding individual explaining the process from start to finish with the home application process. With being a relocation out of the state of Indiana there were a number of differences with the home buying process. James patiently walked me through each step of the process. With each new question came a new hurdle that James had to overcome. His knowledge of credit reporting and the process involved was amazing to help overcome the burden of my own personal credit score. As the process neared an end, there seemed to be even more questions from myself that had to be explained maybe

James and Team were awesome! I am in Real Estate myself and know plenty of lenders. No doubt Upward Home Loans was the best choice for my loan. These guys are detailed and provide the best follow up in the industry. Never once had to call and ask where we are.....they always kept us in the loop and made us feel good about the process. Highly recommend this group.

I am so excited to be in my new home! I was referred to James with Upward Home Loans by my realtor. So glad I decided to use them vs my bank. They took time to explain the entire process, kept my in the loop at all times with what I was to expect or information they need in order to process my loan. It was a wonderful experience, staff all very nice and professional. I began and closed in less than 40 days. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to friends and family.
