About Me

Be Admired.

From the start, my vision for Lendmire was simple: to create a company that truly values and admires every client and employee. Our motto, Be Admired, is more than words — it’s the heart of everything we do. Buying a home is more than a transaction; it’s about building a foundation for your dreams, growth, and memories.

As CEO, I lead a passionate team of mortgage experts dedicated to empowering you with personalized service and innovative loan solutions, whether you’re buying your first home or growing your real estate portfolio.

With over a decade of experience as Vice President and Mortgage Originator at BB&T (now Truist Bank), I built Lendmire to deliver exceptional client experiences and a culture of admiration. Let’s make your dreams a reality — reach out today and Be Admired every step of the way.

Why Work With Me

A different kind of mortgage experience.

Three things that set this process apart — from your first conversation to the day you close.

01 · My Approach

A decade at BB&T, now my own practice.

Over ten years as Vice President and Mortgage Originator at BB&T (now Truist Bank) taught me how big banks operate — including the limitations clients run into. I built Lendmire to bring that institutional rigor to a brokerage that actually shops every loan.

02 · The Lendmire Advantage

Multi-lender shopping.

Lendmire is a brokerage — we shop top wholesale lenders to find the best rate and structure for your profile. You don’t get one bank’s offer. You get the right one.

03 · Direct Access

Real human, not a call center.

You work with Brandon directly — from preapproval through closing. Same name on the email, same voice on the phone, same person at the closing table. Calls returned same-day, questions answered honestly, and a process that adapts to your timeline — not the other way around.

Client Reviews

What Brandon’s clients are saying.

Real Google reviews from real homebuyers and refinance clients — the people who trusted Brandon with one of the biggest decisions of their lives.

★★★★★

Brandon Miller has completed two mortgages for me over the years and I was very impressed with both his responsiveness and his kindness to me throughout the entire process. For most people, purchasing or refinancing a home can be stressful and it was great having Brandon take the necessary time to walk me through every step of the way and streamline the process as much as possible. I will certainly work with him again on any future lending needs, and will continue to refer my friends his way. Highly recommend!
