I worked with Brannon and Robert and they were both fantastic! They reached out to me at every step and made sure all of questions were answered. I highly recommend using First Choice Lending as the level of care and communication can’t be matched by nationwide lenders.
Brannon Taylor had great communication and closed our loan in 20 days! Highly recommended for all mortgage needs!
I can’t say enough about First Choice!! To say the least, they are AMAZING! Not only are they great at what they do, but they are also super nice people. I worked with Brannon and Robert to close on my new home. Their expertise made my rather unique situation very easy and I was always kept up to date. I would have an update from them without having to follow up with them first. As stressful as buying a house is, they made the process go as smoothly as possible. Highly recommend First Choice Lending!
We wanted to take a moment to express our sincerest gratitude for Brannon Taylor at First Choice Lending Services for his exceptional work in helping us close on our new home in such a short timeframe. His dedication, expertise, and prompt action truly made a difference! Brannon guided us through the mortgage process with utmost professionalism and efficiency. His knowledge and thoroughness ensured that everything was in order, allowing for a smooth and seamless closing. We are truly grateful for his prompt responses, picking up those late/early phone calls, to our inquiries, and his commitment to providing the best possible service. During the signing, all parties were truly impressed by his team’s work and being able to close on our desired date. Brannon and First Choice was definitely the right choice! Thanks to your hard work Brannon, we are now proud homeowners, a dream turned into reality in record time!
Brannon Taylor is awesome!! He helped my husband and I qualify for way more than we had ever been before. He was very helpful and informative with all of our questions, as we were first time homebuyers. I highly recommend him! -Shaelyn
Brannon is so patient and understanding, he controls and manages his properties higher than you could expect. Brannon is truly a blessing to me and my kids. -Quiyana
I had a lender previous to working with first choice lending. When i switched to first choice lending my home buying process went smooth as butter. Brannon made everything easy and worked hard! 10/10 would recommend Brannon at first choice lending! -Lyndsey
Exceptional! From our first conversation until the closing on our new home, Brannon Taylor was always professional, knowledgeable, prompt, and super friendly. He made the process of purchasing a new home stress-free and even enjoyable. Thank you so much for everything! I highly recommend Brannon if you are in the market for a new home loan! -Crissy
Brannon Taylor did an excellent job helping me with my loan process. He was extremely polite and professional and walked me step by step throughout the whole process. Thank you sir! -Tanner
Brannon did a great job helping me get preapproved for a mortgage. Easy to work with. Very responsive. Did most through email and texting, perfect for me! -John
Brannon Taylor with First Choice Lending Services is one of the best lender contacts I have the pleasure of working with. Working in the title industry, one comes across many different lenders and I have to say, I’m happy to see both his name and the name of First Choice Lending Services when I have a new refinance or purchase closing file. I would highly recommend this company to any buyer or borrower, as they are able to match a loan to their client, no matter who that client is or what their unique circumstance is! -Beth
Brannon is awesome! As a Realtor, you couldn’t ask to work with a better lender. Very responsive and always available to myself or our client. Thanks again, Brannon Taylor for what you do! -James
1st time home buyer and Brannon helped me through the entire process. Highly recommended! -Jimmy
Brannon Taylor was our agent for a recent purchase of a new home. We have worked with a fair number of finance agents over the years and without a doubt Brannon is the most on top of the processes, documents, and communication of all them. He kept us extremely well informed and provided guidance on what we needed to do. When we buy again, he will be our first contact! -Brett
First Choice Lending Services recently did the refinancing of our home and I was extremely satisfied. Brannon was very helpful throughout the process and I would highly recommend First Choice and Brannon. -Trevor
Brannon Taylor has been awesome and has answered all our questions. He has been in the fight with us since the beginning and has done a fantastic job. -Timothy
If you are anything like me, you do not know anything about all of the complexities of mortgage loans. If you want someone who takes his time to help you understand every step or when you have a million questions after hours and he actually responds to your email quick. -Shelli
Brannon Taylor was exceptionally helpful in getting our loan, but also in helping us through the process. Always had or got answers to our questions, day or night. (The dude works loooong hours!) Ultimately he got us an even better loan than I thought we could qualify for. He clearly goes all-out for his clients and earned customers for life. -Justin
Brannon Taylor did a wonderful job with my refinance. Saved me a TON of money going from a 30 yr note to a 15 yr note and put some cash in my pocket immediately. Can’t ask for more than that!!! Would definitely recommend him to anyone. -Rob
Very helpful and have closed multiple loans and have been fantastic always. I have recommended Brannon Taylor to multiple people and they have all had a fabulous experience. -Ashley
Brannon was awesome through this whole process. He walked me right through it, went above and beyond. Even helped me over memorial day weekend when he wasn’t at work. Would recommend highly 10/10. -Michael
Brannon Taylor was so helpful during my process. I was a first time buyer and he made sure to answer all of my questions very thoroughly and helped me understand everything in the easiest way possible. I would recommend him to any and everyone I know who is in need of a lender! -Tristyn
Brannon is an amazing lender to work with. He is not just Mon through 8-5 like most lenders. He is great to answer yours calls/texts, call back and explain information. Hands down the best local lender to work with!!! -Gail
Five stars !!!!!
Buying a house can be a stressful time, especially when it comes to the financial aspects of the process. Brannon Taylor made the experience a positive one. He was most efficient, and quickly processed my pre-qualification. No doubt I would employ his services in the future, and I highly recommend him to anyone who is in the market for a new home. -Missy
Could not possibly give a higher recommendation for Brannon Taylor. He went above and beyond, always answered quickly, and made things so easy. Even after I was forced to switch lenders to keep my new build house, he still went out of his way to get me documents and appraisal changes that I needed to close on my home even though he wasn’t benefiting from it at all! I hated not being able to stay with him, but if you are looking for a honest, hard working lender, Brannon is your guy! -Dana
I highly recommend Brannon. He was extremely easy to work with, communicated clearly and quickly, and went above and beyond in all aspects. Even after I was basically forced to switch lenders at the last minute to keep the new construction house, Brannon still went above and beyond to help get my paperwork and appraisal changes completed so I could close on my home, even though he was not benefiting from the close! Not only is he thorough and knows the process but he proved that there are good, honest people in the industry who aren’t only out for themselves. Would recommend Brannon to ANYONE in the market to get a loan! -Dana
Brannon is awsome. He did everything possible for us to get our house he went over and beyond. We are so thankful for his work I have probably called him 100 plus times thru this whole process it was my first time buying a house so he was very understanding and great with everything. We have lived here will be 2 years in November he is the only person I would honestly trust and go to to buy a house. We appreciate everything that you have done for us thank you so much :). -Caitlyn
Brannon was recommended to me by my realtor. He was always easy to reach for any questions I had, and was very thorough and quick with the whole process. I was a first time home buyer and he explained everything in a way that made sense. I had a frustrating experience with a previous lender, and Brannon came and saved the day. Forever thankful and I will recommend him to everyone I know! -Camille
Brannon was awesome! Throughout the whole process, he communicated with us and explained all of our lending options perfectly! I highly recommend Brannon! -Sölve
I highly recommend Brannon Taylor to anyone searching for a professional Lender.
He is knowledgeable, courteous, responds very quickly to inquiries, and tailored my loan to fit my situation perfectly. I also needed a quick closing, and he made it happen! -Mefd
Without Brannon, I would not be a homeowner today. I was a first time buyer with no clue on how the process worked. Brannon walked me through the lending process step by step explaining every little detail including how I could improve my credit score and financial situation prior to applying. He then went out of his way during my home search and negotiations to point out tips and recommendations. Too bad he couldn’t have been my realtor as well!
I highly recommend Brannon. If you’re looking for a mortgage, call him today!!! -Dylan
Brannon accomplished all of my lending needs smoothly and without delay. He walked me through all of the steps necessary to complete my application and followed through to closing without missing a beat! He answered all my questions and recommended the best ways to proceed to avoid delay with my lender and everything worked out great! -Josh
Brannon Taylor was an excellent loan officer, He was always there when I need help and had questions. I believe he went above and beyond what he needed to do to get me my loan. Very knowledgeable. I would HIGHLY recommend him and in fact have told friends and family members. -John

Would we recommended First Choice Lending? Absolutely and without hesitation! We were well pleased with every aspect of our experience with them. Amanda and Brannon worked seamlessly from start to finish, taking meticulous care of us. Each and every member of their team with whom we had contact went above and beyond.
