About Lane Sears & Mortgage Team
I have always been motivated to get the job done right and I am focused on the small details that matter tremendously in the long run. These traits have helped provide my clients with the best possible service & mortgage experience and ensure that when the going gets tough I deliver results.
I grew up in Pasadena Texas and moved to the Midwest for university where I played football on a scholarship. After graduation I moved to St. Louis for a few years, then moved to Chicago where I lived for 25 years and honed my skills for excellent service while managing a joint venture between a big 3 bank and a boutique, upscale real estate firm. Working side-by-side in an office with Real Estate Agents developed my communication skills for keeping all parties updated while maintaining my client's privacy with the utmost discretion. I eventually moved back "home" to Texas in December 2018, again with a big 3 bank, but felt the entrepreneurial calling to a more progressive company that compliments my strong desire for excellent service & customer experience.
In my career I've strived to service every segment of the market possible, from ultra-luxury to move-up buyers, first-time buyers, government loans and down payment assistance programs and I am proud of my track record in each category. I'm available 7 days a week (real estate deals are often made on weekends and evenings) and am extremely diligent about solving the issues that arise over the course of a transaction. With my industry experience I provide clients with a rare level of insight into negotiations and complex problem resolution/mitigation strategies and ensure that their interests are always at the forefront of my team's efforts.
The right advice could help you find the right mortgage for you. Let's work together.

This is NOT a mortgage loan approval or commitment to lend.
The actual fees, costs, and monthly payment on your specific loan transaction may
vary, and may include city, county, or other additional fees and costs. Mortgage rates
are offered exclusively through Rate, Inc. and are subject to change without
notice. The payment amount does not include homeowners' insurance, flood insurance
(if applicable), or property taxes that must be paid in addition to your loan payment.
The displayed Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is a measure of the cost to borrow money
expressed as a yearly percentage. For mortgage loans, excluding home equity lines of
credit, it includes the interest rate plus other charges or fees (such as mortgage
insurance, discount points, and origination charges). These mortgage rates are based
upon a variety of assumptions and conditions, which include a consumer credit score
that may be higher or lower than your individual credit score. Your loan's interest
rate will depend upon the specific characteristics of your loan transaction and your
credit history up to the time of closing. Refinancing may cause finance charges to be
higher over the life of the loan. Rate, Inc. has no affiliation
with the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, the US Department of Veterans
Affairs, the Nevada Department of Veterans Services, the US Department of Agriculture,
or any other government agency.
