Adam Styer, Austin mortgage broker, with his family at home in Austin, Texas

About Adam

I'm originally from Ohio —Go Bucks—but I've called Austin home for over 16 years. I loved it so much that my parents, brother, uncles, and most of my family followed me here (minus one brother who landed in Nashville). I root for the Longhorns too, as long as they're not playing Ohio State.

I got into mortgage lending in 2013 and went independent in 2017, launching Mortgage Solutions LP. That decision changed everything. As an independent broker, I'm not tied to a single bank's products or rate sheet. I shop 40+ lenders to find the best terms for your specific situation —income type, credit profile, timeline, loan amount. My job is to find the right loan, not push the most profitable one.

Over 1,000 loans closed. That number matters because it means I've seen almost every scenario: the first-time buyer who can barely scrape together 3.5%, the self-employed borrower with two years of losses on paper but solid cash flow, the investor scaling a rental portfolio with DSCR loans, the VA buyer competing in a multiple-offer Austin market. I know how to structure deals that close.

I run a lean, fast operation. 24-hour pre-approvals are the standard, not the exception. When a contract is signed, we move immediately —disclosures same day, appraisal ordered, conditions cleared proactively. Most of my clients close in 21 days or fewer. In the Austin market, that speed is a competitive advantage that wins deals.

Outside of work, I'm a husband to my wife Britney Jo, and a dad to our three amazing kids. I'm over 10 years sober and actively involved in the sober community here in Austin. I stay focused on what matters most —faith, family, fitness, and helping people build real wealth through homeownership.

Who I Work With

Every buyer is different. Here's where I spend most of my time:

🏠

First-Time Buyers

Navigate the entire process from first conversation to keys in hand. Down payment assistance programs, FHA options, conventional loans with 3–5% down. We make it simple.

📈

Move-Up Buyers

Selling one home and buying another at the same time is complicated. I help you coordinate timelines, bridge financing if needed, and avoid getting stuck without a place to land.

VA Borrowers

Served our country? The VA loan is the best mortgage product in existence. Zero down, no PMI, competitive rates. I help veterans use this benefit correctly in competitive Austin offers.

💼

Self-Employed Borrowers

Business owners, contractors, freelancers. Standard W-2 underwriting doesn't always fit. Bank statement loans, P&L qualification, and conventional paths —I find what works.

🏛

Real Estate Investors

DSCR loans that qualify on rental income instead of personal income. No W-2s, no tax returns. Scale a portfolio without hitting DTI walls. LLC purchases supported.

🔄

Refinancers

Rate-and-term refinances, cash-out, debt consolidation. I compare your current loan against the market honestly —if it doesn't make financial sense, I'll tell you.

Why Work With an Independent Mortgage Broker?

Bank loan officers sell one bank's products. I shop the market for you.

🔍

Shop 40+ Lenders

I compare rates, fees, and underwriting guidelines across dozens of wholesale lenders. You get the best terms available, not the best terms one institution offers.

Work for YOU

Brokers work for clients, not corporations. No quotas. No products I'm "supposed to push." My only job is to find the right loan at the right price.

💡

Deeper Expertise

Brokers specialize in mortgages —that's it. I know every loan program, every lender's guidelines, and how to structure deals that pass underwriting the first time.

📱

Single Point of Contact

You don't get transferred around. I handle pre-approval, rate lock, conditions, closing —from first call to final signature. One person, accountable throughout.

🎯

Creative Problem Solving

Challenging credit? Unique income structure? Investment scenario? When one lender says no, I find one who says yes —because different lenders have different guidelines.

Speed That Wins Deals

24-hour pre-approvals. 21-day closings. Proactive communication before you have to ask. In Austin's competitive market, speed isn't a perk —it's how you win.

Deep Austin Market Knowledge

I don't just process loans — I know this market. That knowledge makes a difference in how deals are structured and won.

Austin's market is unlike most of the country. You're often dealing with multiple offers, TREC contracts with 21–30 day close windows, and listing agents who vet your pre-approval letter before they'll even show the home. A generic, bank-issued letter doesn't cut it here. My pre-approvals are underwriter-reviewed and carry weight.

The Austin MSA spans two counties — Travis and Williamson — and they work differently. Travis County (Austin, Pflugerville, Cedar Park in part) uses TCAD for appraisals. Williamson County (Round Rock, Georgetown, Leander, Cedar Park in part) uses WCAD. Property tax rates vary by city and MUD district. These details affect your payment calculation and should be factored in before you write an offer.

I also know the suburb markets well. Georgetown is a different buyer than Round Rock. Leander's new construction scene attracts different loan programs than Pflugerville's resale inventory. Cedar Park's price point brings jumbo loans into play more often than people expect. This market knowledge shapes how I match clients to loan products.

Austin's rental market — particularly short-term rentals during SXSW, ACL, Formula 1 at COTA, and UT events — makes it one of the stronger DSCR loan markets in the country. I've helped investors acquire rental properties in East Austin, South Congress, Buda, and Kyle using rental income to qualify instead of personal income.

How I Work

Honesty

No hidden fees. No surprises. No pressure. You'll know exactly what you're paying and why before you ever sign anything. If a loan doesn't make sense for you, I'll tell you that too.

Speed

24-hour pre-approvals. 21-day closings. Proactive updates before you have to ask. Agents trust us in competitive offers because we deliver on the timeline every time.

Education

I take time to explain your options, rates, terms, and what every decision means long-term. A Mortgage Coach presentation, a quick Loom video, a phone call —whatever helps it click.

Family First

We treat every client like family. Your goals become our goals. Your success is our success. We celebrate when you get the keys to your dream home.

Problem-Solving

Challenging credit? Unique income? Tight timeline? We've seen it. I don't give up on a file —I find the lender and the path that works. Every scenario has an answer.

Accountability

One point of contact through the entire process. My personal cell. Direct access. No getting transferred, no chasing updates. I own the file from application to close.

Community & Connections

Great lending starts with great relationships. I stay deeply connected to Austin's real estate community through networking events, mastermind groups, and industry partnerships — because the stronger my network, the better I can serve you.
