Working with Ashby as our mortgage loan officer was truly an exceptional experience. He took the time to walk us through all the different home loan options we qualified for, clearly explaining the pros and cons of each one. Whenever we had questions, Ashby was always just a call, text, or email away, which gave us so much peace of mind as new homeowners. What we appreciated most was that Ashby didn’t just tell us the numbers—he provided detailed documents so we could review everything ourselves. He helped us secure a loan with the lowest interest rate possible and kept our closing costs as low as he could. His patience, transparency, and guidance made the homebuying process feel far less overwhelming. Ashby truly went above and beyond, coaching us through every step so there were no surprises along the way. He was personable, supportive, and made us feel valued—not just another client or number. We’re extremely grateful for his help and highly recommend him to anyone looking for an honest, knowledgeable, and dedicated mortgage loan officer.
Ashby was awesome to work with for the purchase of our new home. He made everything simple and easy. Was professional and available anytime we had a question. Would use him again and recommend him to others.
Highlander Mortgage, particularly Ashby, was very knowledgeable and helpful during the house buying process. As a first time home owner, Ashby's tips and advice were greatly appreciated. Whenever I had a question on a specific process, Ashby made sure to break it down to where it was easily digestible. He was also adamant about getting my wife and I the best rates he could possibly get (which won our business). Looking forward to hopefully working more with Highlander Mortgage in the future.
I’ve been using Highlander mortgage for well over 10 years. My wife and I have bought and sold a few properties and over the years refinanced a couple of times. Ashby McDonald is well informed about local markets, he is smart, capable, and makes navigating a mortgage far better. It is always a process getting all the documentation together but Ashby makes it as easy as possible. I highly recommend Highlander mortgage. I can’t think of anyone else I would rather use.
I can’t say enough great things about my experience working with Ashby as my mortgage consultant! From start to finish, he was incredibly helpful, professional, and most importantly—educational. As a first-time homebuyer, I had a lot of questions and uncertainties, but Ashby took the time to explain everything in clear, easy-to-understand terms. He never rushed me, and he genuinely cared that I felt confident and informed throughout the entire process. Ashby went above and beyond, always available to answer my questions and provide support—even outside of business hours. I felt like I had a true partner and advocate in my corner the whole time. I honestly don’t know how I would’ve navigated this journey without him. If you’re looking for someone who is not only a mortgage expert but also genuinely invested in helping you make the best decisions for your future, I highly recommend Ashby. He made all the difference in helping me purchase my home with confidence.
