About Us

When it comes to mortgages for a home purchase or refinance, people want a process that is simplified and has their financial goals in mind, but they also want their Mortgage Banker to treat them personally with care, understanding, professionalism and empathy. Lauree Leyland, The Mortgage Lady at Volunteer Mortgage Group / USA Lending gets that.

A self admitted “people person”, Lauree has never met a stranger and loves helping her family, her community and her clients.

“I love that I can work in an industry that many people find challenging and stressful, and have made it an outlet to make a difference in people’s lives and in the lives of their family and community as well. I have always been service oriented, whether it was on the mission field in the Cumberland Mountains, in Guatemala after the earthquakes or as a university administrator working one-on-one with students for 16 years or with a few of the Tennessee Titans by helping them organize and host their individual charities and events, the most rewarding part of any job has been impacting lives for the better. My career as a mortgage professional is another extension of that premier life goal. I am passionate about doing more than just “the job”. I am passionate about what improves the well being and financial future of my clients, and I am passionate about making my clients feel that when the process is done, I am not only their loan officer, but a friend.”

Volunteer Mortgage Group / USA Lending has a relationship with over 50 lenders offering a wide variety of products and options that can be tailored to meet the individual needs of each client.

I am available to my clients when they need me.  Not everyone can make phone calls during the business day, but have questions or need to work with their lender before or after they go into their job.  I take calls early and I will take calls in the evening or on weekends when necessary.  I also... (more) I am available to my clients when they need me.  Not everyone can make phone calls during the business day, but have questions or need to work with their lender before or after they go into their job.  I take calls early and I will take calls in the evening or on weekends when necessary.  I also work with my client from the moment we take an application all the way thru the process to closing.  They know that I am the person walking thru the home buying or refinance process from start to finish, and even after we close, I am here for questions or further assistance.  The people I work with aren't just my clients.  By the time we are finished, they are my friends.  That makes a difference in how they feel about the most important purchase of their lives.
