Sente Mortgage is a direct mortgage lender with an Austin branch on Burnet Road, so it lends its own products instead of shopping them across many lenders.

Reviewers include buyers, refinancers and real estate agents who send clients to its loan officers.

Joel Richardson is an individual loan officer on West Lynn Street in Austin. Google lists the profile as a mortgage broker and lender, but his site and a reviewer point to First Community Mortgage, so ask whether you would borrow from that lender directly.
