One team. One plan.
Your agent and your lender working the same file.
Buyer's Rate Mortgage is the lending side of Byrne Real Estate Group. Same roof, same team, same goal... getting you into the right home on terms that hold up. Already have a loan estimate? Bring it. We'll look at it and try to beat it.

Why we built this
Most of what goes wrong in a purchase happens in the handoff.
In a normal transaction your agent works for one company and your lender works for another. Different systems, different priorities, no real reason to pick up the phone. So the buyer becomes the messenger... repeating the same numbers, chasing the same documents, finding out two days before closing that something changed.
That gap is not free. It shows up as a fee nobody caught, a seller credit nobody asked for, a rate lock that ran out, a closing date that moved. The buyer pays for it every time, in cash or in interest.
Clay Byrne - Owner
I got tired of watching buyers pay for problems they didn't create. So we brought the mortgage side in-house.

Financing that fits you
More Than One Way to Finance a Home.
Every buyer comes to the table differently. Buyer’s Rate Mortgage offers financing options for traditional purchases, self-employed borrowers, investors, veterans, and more.

Who's on your side
Twenty-nine years of watching this from both chairs.
Byrne Real Estate Group has worked the Austin market for 29 years, more than a billion dollars in closed volume, with about 1,200 five-star reviews behind it. After all of that, financing was still the one part of the deal we couldn't control. So we stopped outsourcing it.
You are never required to use us. Buyers work with whatever lender they want, and your agent treats that lender like part of the team either way. This is an option, not a condition.

What comes with it
Three things you keep whatever the market does.
Bring us the offer. We'll try to beat it.
For qualified buyers we'll review a bona fide competing loan estimate and, when we can, beat it rather than match it. If we can't, we'll tell you that plainly and you should take the other loan.
$2,500 toward the refinance that comes next.
Every Buyer's Rate client gets a $2,500 refinance credit. It never expires, and you can hand it to someone you care about.
One file, start to finish.
When your financing changes, your agent knows. When the contract changes, your lender knows. Nobody makes you the middleman.

What it looks like when it works.
You close on time, on terms you'd choose again.
You knew what your money was doing at every step. Nobody made you the middleman. You got the credits you were entitled to, the rate you qualified for, and a closing date that didn't move. And there's still $2,500 waiting for whenever a refinance makes sense.
We help you make decisions now that you'll be thankful you made years from now.

Getting Started
Three steps, and we handle everything between them.
Talk through the numbers.
Your goals, your budget, your timeline, and what financing actually fits. About thirty minutes, no application required.Get approved in writing.
A real approval you can put behind an offer, so listing agents take you seriously.Shop With Both Teams Aligned.
Your agent and loan officer stay connected as properties, terms, and offers change.

What it looks like when it works.
More ways to say yes. More ways to save.
Your agent and your lender sit on the same team, so we build the deal together from day one. Better rate, lower fees, and a plan that actually fits your life.
The standard paths... Conventional, fixed-rate, FHA, VA, USDA, Jumbo.
When your income doesn't fit a box... Bank statement and Non-QM programs for self-employed borrowers, DSCR and investment-property financing.
Ways to pay less... Seller-paid buydowns, rate buydowns, first-time buyer programs, and our Buyer's Rate Guarantee: bring us any written offer and we'll beat it. Then, when rates drop, a $2,500 credit toward your refinance with us.
However you come to the table, there's usually a way. And we'll find it.
Questions worth asking
Mortgage Questions Answered Clearly
No. You can use any lender you want, and it changes nothing about how your agent works for you. Buyer's Rate Mortgage is here for buyers who'd rather have their agent and their loan officer on one file instead of at two different companies. If you already have a lender you trust, bring them... we'll work with them the same way we work with our own team.
Yes, and you'll have that in writing before you ever fill out an application. Byrne Real Estate Group and Buyer's Rate Mortgage are affiliated companies under the same ownership, and you'll receive a written affiliated business arrangement disclosure that says so. You are never required to use us, and nothing about your agent's job changes if you don't. We'd rather tell you plainly than have you wonder about it later.
Because most of what goes sideways in a purchase happens in the space between two companies. The same numbers get repeated, the same documents get chased, and something changes on one side that the other side doesn't hear about until it's a problem.
When your financing changes, your agent already knows. When the contract changes, your lender already knows. It also gives the listing agent one person to call who can actually speak to your financing... and when your offer is up against three others, that's worth real money.
It's a promise to look, not a rate quote. Bring us a bona fide loan estimate from another lender and, for qualified buyers, we'll review it and try to beat it rather than simply match it. If we can't beat it, we'll tell you that plainly and you should take the other loan. You should never have to wonder whether somebody could have done better for you.
Yes, and that's exactly what we'd want you to do. Send us the loan estimate you already have. We'll read it line by line... rate, points, lender fees, credits... and show you what we could do with the same file. No application required to get that answer.
Every Buyer's Rate Mortgage client gets a $2,500 credit toward a future refinance. It never expires, and if you never need it you can hand it to someone you care about. Rates move. This is us deciding up front that when they move in your favor, you shouldn't have to pay full freight to take advantage of it.
Then you're starting where most buyers start. A conversation is not an application, and it doesn't put a mark on your credit. We'll look at where you actually stand, tell you honestly what's possible right now, and if the answer is "not yet," you'll leave with the specific list of what would change that. Some of the buyers we're proudest of started that exact way.
Often, yes. When you own the business, your tax returns rarely tell the whole story, and traditional guidelines can make a strong borrower look weak on paper. Bank statement and Non-QM programs exist for exactly that gap. Tell us how your income actually works and we'll tell you what you qualify for.
Conventional and fixed-rate, FHA, VA, USDA, and Jumbo. Bank statement and Non-QM for self-employed borrowers. DSCR and investment property financing. Seller-paid buydowns and first-time buyer programs for lowering what you pay each month. The list matters less than the fit, and that's what the first conversation is for.
