Over 700 closings mean one thing: a track record built on trust, precision, and performance.
Here’s what homeowners say about working with Reed and Ryan.
Reed and his team were kind and understanding who guided my fiancé and I through the maze of our first mortgage. He was constantly updating me along the process during the purchase and never was more than a phone call away. When I say he quite literally never didn't accept my phone call I mean it. He was easy to deal with and genuinely cared about our transition from renter to home owner. He was present at our signing and had a great attitude from start to finish. Since purchasing he has kept in contact with myself, treating me more like a friend than a client. I will not hesitate to work with Reed again in the future and recommend him to everyone I know regarding mortgage work in the Colorado Springs area. I can't vehemently recommend him and his team enough.

Reed and the team at Elevation Mortgage are the best lending team around hands down!!!! At soooo many points in the home buying process I felt overwhelmed and as if I was just drowning trying to keep up with what was going on but Reed and his team were SUPER SUPER SUPER patient with me and always had time to answer my questions, calm my fears and walk me through everything!! I cannot speak highly enough of the Elevation Mortgage team!!! I started out with a different lender and an absolutely horrible experience and Reed did everything he could reasonably do to help me!!! My husband and I HIGHLY recommend them for your mortgage needs, we are so blessed to have found them!!!!

DO NOT limit yourself by working with a retail mortgage lender who can only offer you limited products. Reed and his team are knowledgeable and professional. Getting approved for a mortgage is not out of reach with the knowledge, resources and experience this team brings to the table. Highly recommend this company for new loans, refinance or just getting prepared for becoming a new home owner in the future. Elevation Mortgage has earned our lifetime business!

Elevation Mortgage has been rock solid with assisting buyers that I've sent their way. As a Realtor I have high expectations for my lender partners and Elevation is outstanding. Very professional, knowledgeable, responsive and thorough! Do not hesitate to reach out to the top mortgage broker in Colorado Springs, you'll be glad you did.

I represented Buyers who got their mortgage from the Letson Group and Reed and his team were responsive, professional, and quick to problem solve as we had some last minute hoops to jump through on the Real Estate sale. They offer more diverse loan options than a standard bank and their rates are competitive. I recommend them!
