Asher Oren
"Texas Security Bank has been a joy to work with. In comparison to other banks, I have worked with, they are incredibly responsive, respectful, and professional. They made securing a loan an easy process and were continually patient with me as I had questions. I would recommend them to anyone seeking assistance with their financial needs."
Tim Ennis
"I have purchased three homes, and for each mortgage I have happily utilized the services of Texas Security Bank. Their services are seemingly flawless and have left me without worry or concern with every occasion. Their professionalism, open communication, and attention to detail have made it rather effortless in securing a new home, even as a first-time buyer. The entire staff is friendly and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend them to anyone."
Mike Bridgeman
"Denise and Libby are the best! 10 years in RE and over $800m sold, so I can say with absolute confidence that nobody beats their service and knowledge."
Harrison Polsky
"We loved working with TSB for our home Joan last year. They really understand that small business owners need a different level of attention and service sometimes. Their team was super creative for us to make it work best for OUR needs. For example, instead of scores of pages to fill out, we were asked to upload documentation, and that saved us hours of work. I'm recommending them frequently!"
Lisa Harrington
"Our family and the friends we have referred have benefited enormously from the assistance, guidance and support provided by the TSB mortgage lending team over the past 10+ years. Libby Smith and Megan Henry have always been responsive, resourceful, professional, and practical with their advice and the work they have completed on our behalf in securing mortgage loans for personal residences and investment properties. They inspire trust and confidence and always meet their commitments. They have far exceeded our expectations on every occasion and in every transaction. They are always the first call we make when engaging in a real estate transaction requiring financing."
David J. Ferre
"I have used Texas Security Bank (TSB) as my ‘lender of choice’ for my Residential Investment Business for the past 15 years. The TSB Team has assisted me in the procurement of 12 homes and has always provided exceptional service. They have been attentive to my specific requests, so I have been able to meet closing requirements quickly and with very favorable loan rates. The TSB Team communicates well, and I consider them to be an essential part of my continued success. TSB will provide prompt, professional lending services that will exceed your expectations! "
James M. Walley, Jr.
"The TSB mortgage team has done two mortgages for me and makes the process simple. Their attention to detail, communication, and speed makes the process seamless. Highly recommend TSB for any home purchase."
Levi Jobe
"_My business partner and I recently worked with Emily Sanders for financing on an investment property. The process was very smooth, and we were informed every part of the way. Emily and her team communicated on a high level and continued to “wow” us thru the process. We will use Emily

again in the future for our investment purchases!"
"We couldn't have had a better experience for our 1st construction loan. We had several obstacles with getting approved as self-employed, etc. However, Denise was so helpful educating us on the process. The customer service we received from the beginning of the load to the end was outstanding!!!"
Lezlee Kinney
"Emily and her team helped my wife and I buy our first home, and I cannot recommend Texas Security Bank enough because of how great they made this experience. Her and her team have been genuine and honest every step of the way, answered our many questions quickly and thoroughly, and have continued to be of great service even after we closed. I have told all my friends and family who are looking to buy a home to use Texas Security Bank. We hope to use TSB for the future for any of our mortgage needs!"
Arren Wells
"Denise and the TSB team did an incredible job with my home construction loan and mortgage. They were easy to work with and guided me through the process effectively and efficiently. I was able to get all of my questions answered quickly and to close on time. I particularly appreciated that Denise would always pick up the phone when I called. She helped me get all of my documents together and it was a straightforward and painless process. I would happily work with TSB again and certainly would recommend the bank to anyone looking for a mortgage or construction loan."
