I had a fantastic experience with Locklear Lending! From start to finish, the team made the home-buying process smooth and stress-free. A special shoutout to Allison, who was incredibly helpful and patient—she answered all of my questions thoroughly and made sure I felt confident every step of the way. Ross was amazing as well—he processed my loan quickly and efficiently, which really helped everything move along without delays. I would absolutely recommend Locklear Lending to anyone looking to buy a home, especially first-time home buyers. Their support and expertise made all the difference!

Locklear Lending helped make my first home buying experience seamless. Amanda and Kelly were friendly and patient with all my questions, explained things simply and communicated quickly. The whole team are pros and I would definitely work with them again (hopefully not too soon as I love my new home!)

Garrett and the Movement Mortgage Team are a force to be reckoned with. We’ve closed two homes with them in wild markets and our realtor agrees that we could not have accomplished that in the time we did without this team. They are fast! They are thorough! They make magic happen and are calm and collected along the way, walking you through all questions you have. Choose Garrett with Movement Mortgage to be competitive and know you’ll be taken care of.

Garrett and the whole Locklear Lending team were incredibly thoughtful, communicative, and prompt with everything around my first house purchase. It can be hard buying your first house, like all your questions sound dumb or something - but they were all so thoughtful in every response and reassurance. 10/10 business!

The process of getting a home mortgage or a refinance has been mired in practices and procedures pioneered before FM radio. Movement has taken a team approach, infused it with technology, made frequent and thorough communication a value, and created a fast process that is almost fun.

This team is amazing. They were very quick to answer my questions and their online application system makes it very easy and is very user friendly. We closed in just a couple weeks on our refinance. I would recommend this company to anyone! I was actually referred from another very happy client. Hmmm, there seems to be a theme here!

Garrett Locklear and the team are absolutely one of a kind rare gems! They gave me the best news possible, and as a injured single mother it’s the best news that I've heard in a really really long time. I can’t thank them enough for their round the clock hard work for someone like me. They saw my hard work and the potentials and wen straight to work without any further questions and put together their magical thinking hats and made it happen! Thank you so much! I truly appreciate all the work you and your team has put into this. Thank you, thank you so much!❤️

Feb 4, 2021

I shopped a few different lenders and Movement Mortgage was a clear leader. Not only in bottom line rates and costs but the entire team that worked our REFI through an accurate and quick process. Highly recommend checking them out.

Knowledgeable, quick response time, extremely thorough, easy docusign all from home, would highly recommend !

Garrett and his team were incredible to work with during our home purchase as we relocated from Los Angeles to Nashville. Accessible, responsive and professional. We have already recommended the Locklear team to several friends looking to relocate from the LA area and their experience so far has been exactly the same!

Buying a home can be an incredibly stressful ordeal! Garrett and the team at Movement Mortgage not only worked diligently with us - but they did it with a whole lot of personality!!!! They’re professional, great communicators, and very positive and fun people. They made our home buying experience a very smooth one. Highly recommend!

Such a smooth experience! Felt so well taken care of & supported through each step as a first time homebuyer. Thank you!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Garrett and his team at Movement Mortgage. There is no one else that I would trust in the home buying process. We have bought two houses partnered with Movement Mortgage and the experience has been above and beyond what we could have imagined. We felt seen, heard and taken care of every step of the way. If you want the upmost peace of mind and confidence in your home buying process, this is the team you need to use!

Jun 1, 2020

I cannot say enough good things about this company! They made our first time home buying experience so smooth and easy, especially with our tight deadlines that we had to work with. We will absolutely use them again in the future for other home purchases!

Amazing - very professional and attentive.

Jun 1, 2020

I chose Garrett Locklear at the recommendation of my Nashville agent Jenilee Anthony. I’m so glad I did! The online portal and automated steps throughout the entire process were extremely helpful and easy to understand - especially for a first time home buyer! During the negotiation process of my home, questions came up regarding mortgage adjustments and calculations - the team at Garrett Locklear was quick to answer my calls or ring me back to talk me through all of my options. At first I was intimidated by the amount of paperwork that comes with buying a new home, but their organizational structure made it super straight forward. Now, I pay my monthly mortgage online and have all records, and progress of payments available to see in my account. I’m very happy with the process and have recommended GL to many friends. Buying my own home was the best decision I’ve ever made, my monthly payments are the lowest I’ve paid toward house (apartments / rent) to date! Thanks team!

Jun 1, 2020

I definitely believe Garrett’s team did a good job answering the questions I had. The process was quick and the team was very responsive, allowing for a simpler closing process. I will consider them again for future transactions

Jun 1, 2020

Garrett and his team are smart, responsive, and answered all of our questions and concerns. There process went very smoothly and made sure we closed without any surprises. Thank you!

Jun 1, 2020

Could not have had an easier and more seamless experience. Buying our first house was so easy with the Locklear team!

May 28, 2020

We couldn't have been more pleased with our experience working with Garrett Locklear and his team. They were all above and beyond helpful, willing to answer all of our questions and check back in with us over the course of the year+ since we began the pre-approval process before we closed on a home. Couldn't recommend them more!

May 26, 2020

Movement did a great job handling our refinance, quick to respond and keep us well-informed through the process.

May 25, 2020

A unique and successful experience even in spite of the nation's lock-down in March and April. The Locklear Team - Very professional and thorough.

May 23, 2020

Garrett and his team are one of a kind. They move fast, are easily reachable, and an overall upbeat team to work with on financing a home!

May 22, 2020

This team is fantastic. They are fast with communication and are very clear with expectations. I have done two big transactions with them in the last few years and have had a great experience every time. These guys are the real deal ! Could not speak more highly of everyone on the team.

May 21, 2020

The team was so helpful as we navigated first time home buying. They answered every question thoroughly. Played through different scenarios for best purchasing options. I would highly recommend them to all of my friends!

May 21, 2020

I was very impressed with the level of care and service given by Garrett and his team. Being a first time home-buyer meant I had a TON of questions, and I cannot imagine any team addressing these questions with better answers along with more empathy than this team. I simply cannot day enough good things. They built great trust with me and my wife, and we are forever grateful for their help in turning us from home-dreamers into home-owners!

May 20, 2020

Garrett Locklear and team made closing on a house very easy. The staff was very patient and explanatory with my many questions throughout the process. They worked expeditiously to ensure an on-time closing. I would definitely recommend doing business with Garrett Locklear and his team.

May 20, 2020

I have bought 4 homes in my lifetime all with different lenders and Garrett’s team was by far my best experience. You can pepper spray them with questions, they know their stuff! In Nashville’s hot market you need someone who is positioned to support you quickly through the home lending process and this is the team. Special thanks to Jonathan Rarick our upfront underwriter.

May 20, 2020

Locklear Lending Team deserves more stars. 5 is simply not enough. Garrett was the 3rd lender we had spoken to and the comparison wasn’t even close. Garrett and team are all extremely prompt and polite. Very proactive bunch that was able to have everything in line for a short closing window. Garrett even called us last minute to confirm a lower fixed rate. Never stopped working to ensure we were in best position to move forward. Everyone we talked to is so personable. We genuinely enjoyed our experience with these folks. No headaches. No uncertainties. No part of their process needs improvement. We highly recommend Locklear Lending Team to anyone, whether purchasing first or tenth home. We look forward to working with Garrett Locklear and team again in the future. Keep up the great work! From very satisfied customers, Adam & Ellen

May 20, 2020

My wife and I just recently bought our first home! Garrett and his team got us the best rate and were SO helpful and kind through the entire process! I can't recommend them enough!

May 20, 2020

Always very efficient and professional. No reason to look anywhere else.

May 20, 2020

As a first time home buyer, I couldn’t have been more comfortable and confident with Movement Mortgage and the Locklear team! It’s been 6 months since we purchased our home and I can happily say that I’ve continued to be in contact with the team about questions I’ve had and refinancing options. I would absolutely recommend this team. Thanks guys and gals!

May 20, 2020
