2 Loans Secured With Aurora Financial!
Aurora Financial is the way to go if you need a home mortgage or refinance or whatever else they offer! I can confidently say this as I’ve now completed 1 loan and 1 refinance with them. They close quicker than other lenders and they have the most competitive rates. If you’re lucky enough to get Leah as your processor just know that you’re working with the best in the business. She makes it so easy and streamlines the process, even for us self employed folks. I highly recommend Leah and Aurora Financial!

The BEST team & BEST rate!
I’m a second time home buyer and I WISH my first experience was this seamless. If you're looking for a mortgage lender with the best rates (trust me, I shopped around), you need to call Aurora Financial—and specifically ask for Dave and Leah as your partners. I especially appreciated Leah's *next-level* communication and organization. We had a pretty tight timeline to close on our home, and not all parties were easy to work with, but Leah handled everything with patience, professionalism, and grace. She kept me updated at every step, explained the details in a way that was easy to understand, and somehow made the process less stressful and more fun than I expected. We managed to close on time, even with the last-minute curveballs. Couldn’t recommend Leah and Aurora Financial more!

Aurora team is the best.
Aurora Financial team are great, Leah is the best. Leah wrapped up my refinancing process and ready to close around 2 weeks as Aurora advertised. Her friendliness and dedication have made our entire refinancing process stress-free. It’s such a pleasure to have an opportunity to work with Leah, and highly recommend Aurora.

Quick Close and Highly Professional
Leah and Aurora Financial were excellent. We needed to close within 14 days, and they were ready to close with days to spare. They were prompt, responsive, provided very clear instructions, and were highly professional throughout the entire process. They also were proactive in tracking down information from third parties for us, which was appreciated.
