  Joan is the best! He was very professional, helpful, informative, stood by our side through the whole process & was there for us 100% day & night. He worked with my credit, stayed on top of paperwork we needed to turn in, and showed us as many houses as we wanted to see.

  Definetely I give them a 10/10 for being so good at what they do. I truly recommend them if you are a veteran looking for a home loan….. Clear Lending is the best. They make the process easy on you, make you feel informed, and help you get where you need to be. As a first time home buyer, I was never really nervous until it came down to signing papers because of the amazing team I had behind me. To Joan & Patricia…. Thank you so much.

  Joan:

  Thank you so much for all your hard work to make this loan a successful ending. You know this is not my first house, but my family and I are very grateful. I am not a first time home buyer, but we are very excited to be a home owner again. I thank you from the bottom of my heart once more for making this possible. Yes, I will definitely refer anyone who comes to me for the inquiry. I will never forget you Joan and Nathalie for what you have done and how hard you worked to make my dream come true. You are very efficient and professional. I am glad that you are my loan officer. Thank you very much once again.

  Sincerely,

  Jeffrey Rodriguez

  Joan Gallardo and his team are an exceptional group who are devoted to helping others realize their goal of home ownership. Compassionate and conscientious business people are a rare find. As first time home buyer and new to Texas I had no map of the territory. Joan was a reassuring presence through the entire experience and I will always remember and endorse his company for excellence.

  Thank you soooo much Joan, Patricia and Samantha for helping us purchase our first home ever. My wife and I are so thankful there are no words to express the joy we feel each time we open the door of our house. I say to my wife… wait is this our house? Then I remember that yes, we just closed few days ago…. LOL. Jokes aside everything you Joan have done for us ever since day one is beyond any words of appreciation. In our case, we truly feel you have been godsent. I still remember the day my wife and I went to Wells Fargo to be told our chances were very limited due to my taxes’ deductions and so we needed to wait 2 possibly 3 years???? My own bank Wells Fargo, Bank of America, Chase, Capital One and God knows how many places we tried. Each one gave us similar reasons but at the end the message was that we didn’t qualify and zero instructions. Well yes, the instructions were that our taxes didn’t reveal the true picture and health of my business operations. Great and now what? Nothing. And so, I stopped searching. Sometime later after talking to a client about my hopeless attempt to buy a house, he told me about a loan officer who showed up from time to time in the radio station offering home loan programs traditional banks would not offer. And so, I started googling until I found Clear Lending. I asked my colleague and bingo! This was the company. And so, I applied online, got a call back very fast, completed an application over the phone, sent income documents and then I was asked to go with my wife at their office. After one hour or so, I was given precise instructions to become a home owner with a government loan program. All I remember was… “If you follow my advice, we will make it happen”. And a year later, Joan got us the house of our dreams, negotiated best deal to cover most closing costs and closed our loan with a 4.25% interest rate when my own was offering me 4.875%???? I am so thankful I found this guy I still cannot believe the miracle he worked for us. Again, thank you Joan and your team for being a true servant and valuable tool to make possible what for me I was told bank after bank to stop searching as it was not possible. I will always refer you absolutely everyone desiring to buy a house. You are indeed the miracle man!!!!

  Thank you so much Joan for helping me get approved and close on my beautiful house after being denied by AMCAP and CORNERSTONE over silly stuff. I signed a contract with Stormi Harris from NEWMARK homes and she pretty much requested me to get approved with their preferred lenders. First, I went to AMCAP and later I was sent to CORNERSTONE. Both first approved me but after waiting and a second review or something like that denied me for not having 2-year employment history with same employer and for a couple of silly old issues on credit. At that point, I had given NEWMARK homes over $13,000 which sometimes as per all communications I felt builder I was not going to get back if I didn’t get approved. Then I after searching on google for local lenders I was lucky enough to find Clear Lending and after sending an approval request I got a call from Broker Joan Gallardo. I advised him about the urgency and after I sent him my documents requested he gave me peace of mind by telling me I had 90% chance of being able to close. Joan was so clear and precise with what to expect I felt I was on the right place. After few conditions we had to clear I got the good news I was Clear-To-Close. I am so thankful I want everyone to know this guy rocks and if you are buying a brand new house maybe you want to avoid builder lenders if you don’t have everything perfect. Loan Officers will tell you everything is ok but as I lived it I can see they had no idea what underwriting may come back with after waiting and waiting for an approval. Soo scary!!!! Thanks Clear Lending for saving me from a huge loss and helping realize my dreams. I will refer you all my friends or whoever ask me if I know a good lender!!!
