My wife & I went through Amanda Brune’s team for our house purchase. Amanda is incredibly responsive and easy to get along with. Working with Amanda, you can tell she is very busy and knows what she is doing. You get the small business owner vibe, which I personally value a ton.
Help when needed was easily and quickly rendered by Amanda Brune. The experience overall was well-done.
Amanda & Andrew Brune were great! They really showed how they are rockstars by
helping us get to closing within 3 weeks of our offer. They got us the best rates, as many
discounts as possible and made sure we got the best bang for our buck.

Amanda and her team were amazing to work with - knowledgable, communicative and just nice people. She did an excellent job with what could have been a complicated VA Loan. Highly recommend!
My experience with Amanda Brune and Direct Mortgage Loans was fantastic from the beginning to the end of the loan process. Even after closing, any issues that came up were immediately resolved with Amanda’s help even though the process was finished and weren’t really her responsibility. I would recommend Amanda and DML for any all home loans you need! Great service and company!
The Best! I hadn't bought a house in 30 years and didn't know where to start. They helped me every step of the way from pre-approval, credit and right to the closing. When I had a question they always answered my text or call, even on weekends to help me out. They went above and beyond. I even had issues with my taxes a few months later and they helped me solve the issue. I highly recommend them. Thank you such Brune Team!
All I can say is for over 3 years, the home search has been arduous. My experience with Direct Mortgage was personal, professional and beyond expectations. With a volatile market and a pandemic, inventory and interest rates exacerbated matters. My mortgage advisor Amanda Brune helped me to navigate through the process. Ultimately, I found a home and Direct assured me further with a very competitive mortgage. I am now enjoying my new home.
Amanda and her team are trustworthy, experts in the mortgage market and make the mortgage process very easy. I've worked with Amanda personally but also as a trusted resource for my clients.
Amanda and Andrew have assisted my wife and I on multiple home purchases and refinances over the years. They always walk us through our options and make recommendations based on our personal situation and goals. They do a great job of walking us through the process and clearly communicating milestones along the way. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, trustworthy mortgage lender, they are the team for you.
As a Realtor, I've been recommending the Brune Team for years and have worked with them on hundreds of transactions. Amanda and Andrew are smart, responsive and experts in their field. They always go above and beyond to help my clients in achieving their home ownership goals. I trust them implicitly and wholeheartedly recommend them. They have integrity, an incredible work ethic and I know they always have my clients best interests at heart. Thank you both for the service you provide, for taking such great care of our clients and for everything you do behind the scenes to make the homebuying process smooth and hassle free.
Amanda Bruin and her Team made the process as stress free as possible. Big Transaction, they processed with peace of mind, great interest rates. So Happy
Amanda is the absolute best! She’s incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and easy to talk to. She walked us through every step of the process. We would highly recommend her and her team!
We have used Amanda and Andrew Brune several times over the past 15 plus years. Extremely thorough and detail oriented - they always deliver as promised. If I could give them 10 Stars - I would.
Amanda was such a dream to work with as first time home buyers. She was consistently responsive for questions as well as cost sheets for the numerous offers we put in on homes. You can truly tell she cares about her clients as people, and wants to help get them in the best possible house for them. We trusted her whole-heartedly and are so appreciative of her guidance and help throughout the process!
Amanda is amazing!! I am buying my first house and this is my first mortgage loan. Amanda has explained everything to me so I completely understand. I 10/10 recommend getting a mortgage loan from her. She is the sweetest person, too!!!
We have used Amanda and Andrew for several mortgages and refis over the years and have always been extremely satisfied with their service. They have worked tirelessly to answer our questions and secure the best loan for our needs. Highly recommend the Brune Team.
Amanda was so helpful throughout the home buying process. I truly never felt stressed as she kept everything in check and moving along as needed.
Once we made an offer on our house, we found out the reason that put our offer over the top was our choice in Lender. DML has a great reputation and the sellers agent knew we’d close with no issues!
Wonderful experience overall!!

Andrew and Amanda were amazing! They are both professional and friendly. They handled every detail and helped smooth out any speed bumps we had in the process. We even did a refinance with them and it was seamless and we saved a considerable amount of money. #BestintheBiz
The Brune team is absolutely amazing! Amanda helped us with both obtaining our initial mortgage and later with our refinance. She explained everything clearly and concisely, guiding us every step of the way. I would definitely recommend The Brune Team!!

Amanda is a very nice lady. She helped me find a good rate for my mortgage. I would recommend them to anyone
I was a first time home buyer. Never did I ever think I would buy and one of those
reasons is the process just scared me. Amanda was AMAZING. So responsive, so
wonderful to talk to, work with, and vent to. Buying a home was actually a great experience
for me, because of her!!

My interactions with Amanda were amazing - she was available at all hours, responsive, communicative, and made the entire loan process extremely easy. This mortgage was easier and more efficient than some new car purchases I have made. I
highly recommend the Brune Team.
highly recommend the Brune Team.
As an agent, Amanda and team have been absolutely incredible every time I’ve worked with them. Knowledgeable, honest, but can get the job done (pre-approval and closings) quickly and accurately. They’re always at the top of my lender referral list!
Working with Amanda Brune and Direct Mortgage was one of the best decisions we made when buying our home. Even though there are lenders that focus on veterans, they handled our VA loan with ease. Their communication was constant, their support in the bidding process was valuable, and their advice and suggestions to ensure there were no issues at closing were appreciated. We will be using them again to refinance as well!
Amanda and the team at Direct Mortgage are wonderful! We bought our first house almost three years ago and I had so many questions. Amanda was super responsive and super helpful. Then when we wanted to refinance last year, we turned to Direct Mortgage again. Would recommend them to everyone!
