I had such a great experience working with The Cary Tennis Team! They were super helpful, very fast, and incredibly friendly throughout the entire process. They always responded quickly to any questions and made everything so smooth and easy. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great, reliable team to work with!
We received outstanding service from The Cary Tennis Team. Everyone was clear, kind, and attentive throughout the entire process. We truly recommend them and will definitely choose them again for any future home-buying process. You did amazing guys! Thank you so much!
Update: The Cary Tennis Team was incredible..again! This is our second time working with Cary and Mandy. They were, again, great at guiding us through the process and explaining things every step of the way.
Cary and her whole team were so helpful! They came up with a unique strategy specific to our home to help us create a competitive offer, without going over our budget. And, they guided us first-time home buyers through the whole process so well.

Mitchell and his team make my transactions run smooth everytime. He’s is patient and informative no matter if the buyer is a first time buyer or experienced.
Mitchell and his team helped guide me and my husband through buying our first house and we couldn't be more grateful to have them. What could have been a stressful and scary experience felt breezy. Every step of the way they were willing to explain things thoroughly and not make us feel dumb for not knowing something. We loved working with Pilgrim Mortgage and definitely will be suggesting them to all our friends.
My wife and I had an incredible experience working with Mitchell Kleckley at Pilgrim mortgage. We both understand that finding both a honest and competent lender can be one of the most challenging aspects of purchasing a home. However, we both strongly feel that we lucked out by being placed in the care of a man with such integrity.
Thank you for making this first time home buying process easy!

Working with the Cary Tennis Team at Pilgrim Mortgage was wonderful! Cary and her team made the home purchasing/lending approval process incredibly easy for me and my husband, and we can't say enough wonderful things about the service and care that we received. I can't recommend them enough and am still in shock at how seamless they made this process for us!
Thank you so much for making the difficult seem easy. Mitchell helped us so much and patiently guided us through the paperwork. A great experience!

The Cary Tennis Team did an awesome job at making the property buying process easy! They walked me through the whole thing, and they were always available to answer our questions! Highly recommend them!
The Cary Tennis Team was amazing in walking us through the process of obtaining a mortgage to get our next home. Their expertise and timely communication made the process easy to navigate.
As first time home buyers we were nervous and didn't know what to expect. Mitchell was super informative and helpful and kept in contact with us throughout the whole process. He answered any questions we had and made sure we were comfortable and our needs were met.
We would definitely recommend Pilgrim or use them again!

This is likely gonna be a lengthy review, but for those that don't want to stick around for it, the TLDR version is that these folks are nothing short of fantastic, and should the need arise again, Pilgrim Mortgage will be THE FIRST (and likely only) people I call to help me. I confidently and happily rate them 9.9 out of 10...and I'll give a droll reason why it's 9.9 at the end.
Our mortgage work-up for our new home was being handled and drafted by Freedom Mortgage, but there ended up being a couple problems that arose that were not communicated to us. There was about a week of silence from them, only for my wife to get a call less than a week before our closing, saying we were turned down for the home loan. We immediately called our realtor (Kelly Rogers of the Jason Mitchell Group, who is also 9.9 out of 10) to fill her in on what happened, and she immediately provided us with two options to contact - one of whom was Cary Tennis of Pilgrim Mortgage.
Cary and her team were ON THE BALL from the very beginning. They were actively handling a couple other closings, but despite being such a relatively small team, I (and more importantly, my wife) never felt as though our situation took a backseat. They gathered information from both us and Freedom Mortgage, and after working through a couple options, they ended up coming up with a viable option that was BETTER than what was proposed by FM. And it all came together really quickly (it would've been faster, but FM seems to enjoy their red tape). On top of that, even while Pilgrim Mortgage was working their magic, at no point did they drop the ball on communication to make sure we were aware where we were at in our process. Emailing, calling, and even texting if necessary to update us daily...especially since there was such a time crunch till our closing.
If I find myself in a situation anywhere close to this again, Pilgrim Mortgage is who I'm calling. I'll also refer anyone that's looking to get home loans done and done well.
As for why I "only" rated Pilgrim Mortgage and Kelly Rogers a 9.9, that's because nothing is perfect...but frankly, this team of people had me questioning that way of thinking. They were wonderful to talk with, exchange with, collaborate with, and, to my fellow introverts, they were just pleasant to deal with.
I'd like to thank the folks at Pilgrim Mortgage again, as well as Kelly Rogers that put us in touch with Pilgrim Mortgage at a moment when my wife and I really didn't know which way to turn.

We had a great experience working with Pilgrim Mortgage! They are straightforward, transparent, and efficient. They communicate often and are always kind. We highly recommend Mitchell Kleckley and the Aggie Lender team!
Mitchell and team were great to work with! They answered all of our questions without hesitation and thoroughly explained each step of the lending process. They were readily available when needed and were fully transparent throughout the entire process. We highly recommend Mitchell and his team at Pilgrim Mortgage and will definitely work with them again in the future!
We trusted Pilgrim Mortgage with our new home purchase and we could not be happier!
Incredible customer service. Mitchell and the whole team work really hard for you and walk you through everything. Highly recommend this company.
Mitchell and his team wre great to work with. They helped get documents sent and received because we were out of state.
Cary and her team are awesome. They were friendly and treated us like family. Walked us thru every step of the way. Kept us informed of any and all developments with our application process. I even liked the weekly status emails they sent. I recommend them for anyone and everyone.
The Cary Tennis team was so great to work with! They helped us throughout the process, answered all our questions, and followed up after closing. We would highly recommend them!
Best lender in the Bryan/College Station Area! My fiancé and I moved into a beautiful home in the Bryan area, and they made the new homeowner process very easy. We plan to use them in the forseen future.
I can not express how thankful I am for Cary Tennis and her team. This was my first time to purchase a home on my own and they walked me through every step. My process was seamless. I can't say thank you enough!

We made an excellent decision to finance our home through Pilgrim Mortgage. Mitchell and staff at Pilgrim were outstanding from the start and the app was a pleasure to use. Yes you heard me it was pleasure to use! The task tracking, document uploading and status reporting superb. I’d give them six stars if I could.
The Cary Tennis Team did an exceptional job when helping us through our mortgage process. Amazing, helpful, knowledgeable are just a few of the words I would use to describe their team!
My husband and I recently bought our first home with the help of Cary Tennis and her wonderful team, and it was the best experience we could have hoped for! Being first time homebuyers, we were apprehensive, having heard the horror stories of friends and family being taken advantage of by lenders in the past. Cary's team was recommended by our realtor, and we immediately knew Pilgrim Mortgage was the best choice for us! Throughout the whole process, Cary and her team were dedicated to finding the best deal for everyone, and to educating us on every possible decision we could make. We've come away from this experience with a great appreciation for the knowledge and understanding we've gleaned. We knew that Pilgrim Mortgage's team in College Station would do whatever it took to keep us informed, and that they wouldn't take advantage of us.
The best part of our experience, however, was Cary's assertion of her faith. She let us know that she's been praying for us through the process, and made it known from the beginning that her love for Christ guides her every decision. We found her to be a thoroughly honest person, who went above and beyond - even coming in person to our closing, to make sure we were protected from financial misunderstandings and to help us get settled.
If you're thinking of working with her team at Pilgrim Mortgage, all I can say is "do it!" You will find your experience to be educational, personal, and ultimately better than anyone else around.

Wow! We were blown away with the service we got from the Pilgrim Mortgage team. If you are looking for someone to use for your first or next Mortgage Lender in Bryan/College Station, give Pilgrim a try.
Mitchell, Leah, Michelle, and Sethe were all very communicative and helped my wife and I clearly understand every step of the process. Being first-time home-buyers, we asked a lot of questions, needed a little more attention, and overall wanted somebody we could trust to lead us the right way. This team was exactly that. Additionally, they were kind and understanding throughout the whole process.
Overall, the gave us a high standard for working with Mortgage Lenders, and we would without a doubt use them again any chance we get.
