LendFriend Mortgage Avis 

My wife and I really enjoyed working with Eric and his team. He was fast, communicative, and really helped educate us on our first time home purchase.

Smooth transaction with very clear communication

Such a seamless experience, quick and efficient. Excellent communication throughout

Michael and his team were wonderful in assisting us with our first home-buying experience. Our case was very particular since I had just graduated, but they gave us the best rate in the market and provided a premium customer experience. It was very easy to get in touch with them and get our questions answered throughout a process that can be stressful. Highly recommended!

The team did a great job from start to finish. It was a pleasure working with them throughout the process.

Because I'm a small business owner in an area of Florida that suffered a prolonged financial impact from the back-to-back hurricanes in 2024, my credit score had dropped down to 619 just as I was trying to refinance my mortgage and SBA loans. I thought I was going to lose both my home and my business after spending almost a year being turned down by every type of refinancing company I could think of, because I didn't meet their minimum credit score, but when I was about to give up, I was referred to Lendfriend.
I was expecting another, "call us if your credit score increases", response when I talked to Lendfriend's President and co-founder, Eric Bernstein, but instead, after reviewing a few financial details, he told me they'd be able to help me refinance both loans into one, and save thousands on the separate monthly payments I was currently making.
Over the next month, the team at Lendfriend worked together to make each and every step as simple and as smooth as possible. With less than 10 days until closing, I requested that Lendfriend do a credit rescore because my score had increased 70 points since we'd started, and even though I'm sure it must have been very inconvenient at the last minute, they agreed without hesitation and it resulted in 0.87% off of my original estimated interest rate.
I'd almost given up on being able to keep my home and my business and I can't thank or recommend the entire Lendfriend team enough: Eric & Michael Bernstein, Kevin Roost, Morgan Cunningham, and Jen Gonczeruk. I think all small business owners looking into a loan will be happy they found Lendfriend.

The team at LendFriend Mortgage were fantastic! They helped us through every step, and I highly recommend them.

As first time homebuyers, we had many, many random questions that were always promptly answered. Additionally, we felt very supported in getting to the closing table every step of the way.

The refinance process was seamless. All my point of contacts were very specific and replies to all inquiries in a very timely manner. Pleasure doing business with LendFriend.

Great service throughout the process

I'm the worst to work with, and Eric and Morgan and the whole LendFriend team made it look (and feel) easy. Kudos to the team and thanks for the help!

Eric and his team did a great job at getting us the best deal.

Really pleased with LendFriend Mortgage. The team was friendly, knowledgeable, and quick to reply throughout the whole process. Eric and Morgan made what’s usually a stressful experience feel a lot easier. Would recommend to anyone looking for a smooth mortgage experience.

LendFriend was at the core of everything during our home buying process. They truly handled all of the hard things so we could focus on finding the right home. I will recommend them to everyone I know who is looking for a home.

Eric and his team were so great to work with. I am a business owner with a background in finance needing a non-conventional mortgage. They made my complicated situation feel easy - and that's when you know you've got the right partner. Would definitely partner with them again.

They helped make my first time buying home an easy process. They helped where they can and they were a great team to work with

They were very helpful navigating us through our home buying process right down to closing.

Overall a great experience! I initially got in contact with Michael to get pre approved. While searching for homes his team helped me look at the numbers for a few houses to see what would work best. Once I was under contract the process was nice and easy and I was able to close early!

As a first-time homebuyer, I honestly couldn't have asked for a better team to work with than LendFriend Mortgage. Buying a home can be overwhelming, especially when you don't know what you don't know. My biggest concerns were staying within my budget, asking the right questions, and making sure I didn't make any costly mistakes. From day one, Eric and his team put those worries to rest.

As our broker, Eric immediately gave us confidence that we were working with someone who genuinely cared about helping us make the right decisions—not just getting us to the closing table. He took the time to explain every step of the process, answered every question thoroughly, and made sure we understood everything before moving forward. At no point did we feel rushed or like anything was being overlooked. We always felt informed, prepared, and confident that nothing was being skipped or left out.

Working with Eric means you also get additional support from people like Morgan, Crystal, and Chelsey. Each of them played an important role throughout the process, and together they operated like a truly exceptional team. Everyone had their own responsibilities, but they worked seamlessly together, resulting in zero gaps in communication. We always knew where we stood, what came next, and who to reach out to if we had questions.

One of the things that impressed us most was their responsiveness. Emails were answered within minutes, our phone calls were always welcomed, and no question ever felt too small. They consistently went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable and supported throughout the entire process. We closed on time, and knowing Eric was fully prepared to close even earlier if we wanted to gave us even more confidence in how organized and proactive the team was.

LendFriend Mortgage made what could have been one of the most stressful experiences of our lives feel straightforward and manageable. Their professionalism, knowledge, honesty, patience, and transparency made all the difference.

I would recommend Eric and the entire LendFriend Mortgage team to anyone—whether you're buying your first home, refinancing, or simply trying to understand where to begin. If you're looking for a mortgage team that genuinely puts your best interests first, communicates every step of the way, and gives you complete confidence throughout the process, look no further.

Thank you, Eric, Morgan, Crystal, and Chelsey, for making our first home-buying experience such a positive and memorable one!

Very easy to work with on Asset depletion loans and self-employed bank statement loans. I’d recommend them to anyone!
