I was looking into a reverse mortgage shortly after my husbands passing. We talked about it often. We both thought it was a wonderful choice so I could stay comfortably in our home. Biggest decision I ever made was choosing someone who would stay with me through the entire process. I relied on my daughter ( who is a realtor) to find a professional and who had earned the respect in this industry. Without a doubt Michael Harrell was our choice. He made and exceed my every expectation. He walked me thru every step sometimes more than once. It is a lot to understand. You definitely have to have whole heart confidence in your choice. He has a lifetime of experience, intregrity and he truly loves his job. He carried me thru from start to closing. I will be eternally grateful for his positivity and friendship.

My grandparents used Mike Harrell for their Reverse Mortgage. He was an absolute pleasure to do business with! Mike is the best of the best. He knows this business inside and out and took time to make sure my grandparents understood the process and all that was involved. It was so nice to feel like they were being taken care of. He is trustworthy, super knowledgeable and really cares about his clients. Thanks so much for everything, Mike!

Navigating the Reverse Mortgage process for our family seemed daunting until we met Mike and his team! He is the best of the best and we wouldn’t dream of working with anyone else. Mike is an expert communicator, savvy, and wastes no time tackling the whole process…all while communicating with us through every step along the way. If you’re looking for a seamless Reverse Mortgage facilitator and team of experts , look no further. Thank you, Mike!

I have known and worked with Mike Harrell for many years in the mortgage industry. By far he is the most conscientious reverse mortgage originator I know. With his vast knowledge and experience he is able to do loans that others would walk away from. He is a straight shooter from the beginning to the end of the process.

Mike Harrell is nothing short of amazing and immensely knowledgeable in the mortgage world! When I think of who I would want to help my family with a mortgage, it is hands down Mike Harrell. He has gone above and beyond for all his clients at Michael Harrell Group. Many moons ago, he took a chance on hiring me at 19 years old and was an amazing man to work with. I will forever refer all my closest friends and family members to Mike for their reverse mortgage needs! Thank you for all you have done Mike!

Mike was recommended to us for a Reverse Mortgage, and we could not be happier with his help. It has been a few years and there have been absolutely no problems.Mike worked with us on all the forms to be filled out and made it so very easy for us to get the reverse mortgage done. He is always very easy to reach and extremely helpful with any questions or concerns (of which there have been very few).Mike is very easy to contact any very, very easy to talk to. We would not even consider contacting anyone else if there were a problem.You need not search any further than Mike Harrell for any of your Reverse Mortgage needs. Just for the record, we have not met Mike in person and have no reason to recommend him--other than his open and honest helpCarol and Bill RobisonWichita Falls, Texas.

Using Mike Harrell to help my grandparents get through the Reverse Mortgage process is one of the best decisions we have ever made! We had so many questions, and Mike always took his time, and answered each and every one of them every step of the way. He was easy to get in touch with, always answered his phone when we called, responded quickly to emails, and even called us to give updates. He was professional, knew the program like the back of his hand, and was up front and honest about the process, the pro's and cons and was candid about whether or not a Reverse was a good fit for them or not. We can't say enough about him or thank him enough for helping us all the way to the very end. We would recommend him to anyone - without question. Thank you Mike!!

Mike is hands down the best loan officer I’ve ever had. He knows the business inside and out. I’d recommended him to anyone I know who needs a mortgage and already have to my personal friends and family. Thanks, Mike!

Mike, just a little note telling you how appreciative I am of you getting my reverse mortgage loan across the goal line. I don't think I have ever had the service and expertise in any other loan application in my life. You had all the answers plus some. It seems the knowledge you have of your product line is at least a 110%. I really appreciate the hard work, time in effort. MANY THANKS, JOE RANIERI

Mike Harrell is the best. He took our reverse mortgage application and guided us weekly through the process. He made this a stress free loan and we were very anxious at first. We trust Mike explicitly and would refer him to anyone.

When I talked to several lenders investigating a reverse mortgage for my Mother, it was Mike Harrell who took the time to help me understand the complexities and how it would help our situation. He took care of everything and made sure we knew exactly what was next. My stress level disappeared and everything went exactly as he said it would. Thank you Mike.
