Adam is very attentive and is always there to answer any questions you have. He is willing to walk you through any different scenario that pops into your head. He is very professional and I would definitely use him again for any new purchases or refinancing.

Adam was a huge help. The process for a renovation loan can be quite daunting, and Adam walked us through the process every step of the way. He helped us immensely both as first time home buyers and as someone renovating a fixer-upper. We can’t thank the team at Acela enough

This was the second purchase in Southern Maryland for which we used Southern Trust Mortgage. Adam and his team were very professional, responsive, and aware of the myriad needs of a military family moving across the country. Adam was very patient with all of my ridiculous questions, continually updated both my family and our team of realtors, and made things happen quickly. His team was able to work a closing in 30 days from contract acceptance. We will absolutely continue to work with Southern Trust for future purchases. They are the absolute best!

Adam was great to work with! We began working with him 6 months ago, and never had to question what was going on because he always communicated. He walked us through each step and kept us in the loop on every single detail! I'd recommend him to anyone in the market!

had the most Amazing experience with Southern Trust Mortgage. We were officially notified Feb 11, 2022 that the owner of the home we were renting wanted to sell. My realtor connected me with two mortgage companies. One company looked at my score called me once to tell me what it was never followed up. Adam and Mike looked at our scores wrote up a plan of how we can improve and we worked that plan. We were Pre Approved in April mid month. Had an offer accepted about 2 weeks later. CLOSED MAY 27th. The entire team IS GREAT!!! Amy, Karen, Adam, Mike. We definitely had the dream team on our side. We never imagined to be in a new home this year or ever. I thank them so much for being patient, and going hard in the paint to expedite our closing. I will FOREVER REFER EVERYONE I KNOW TO THIS COMPANY ❤️❤️

From our very first conversation, Adam made us feel comfortable and provided us with options and guidance. He is extremely knowledgeable and explained everything thoroughly. We had spoken with other lenders previously, but were left feeling confused and discouraged. Within just a few weeks of being connected to Adam, we had a ratified contract. Ultimately, Adam and his team made our home-buying dream a reality! Thank you Adam, Amy, and Karen for providing such a seamless process for our first time home-buying experience.

Adam went above and beyond to make the process quick and painless. I had some last-minute issues on my part, and he provided excellent guidance. He was on top of everything and able to help keep things on track. I highly recommend Adam and the Southern Trust team to anyone looking for a good mortgage company with good rates.

I was a first time home buyer, Adam and his whole team Karen, Amy and all the ones behind the scene like the underwriters made it so easy for me. They explained everything thoroughly and made sure I understood everything. I was very nervous in buying my first home but this awesome team held my hand the whole way. Very easy to deal with and they make u a priority and willing to work after hours to get you in the home you desire. I can’t thank them enough for the amount of effort they put into getting my family and I in our 1st home. Thanks, my family and I was truly bless to have a team like them behind us because it matter to them just as much as it matter to us.
