WHO WE ARE…

Maxwell was founded in 2015 by homebuyers who were shocked by the complexity and inefficiencies of the mortgage process for borrowers and lending teams alike. Maxwell has created a platform that has not only streamlined the process and made it more efficient but has made mortgages more accessible in the process. Our mission is clear: democratize mortgage by helping lenders work more efficiently and stay compliant while eliminating the barrier to entry and the stress for the borrower.

We are a company focused on a supportive, diverse, and inclusive culture. We live our values of Rigor, Ownership, Curiosity, Kindness, and "Straight Up" to bring equality to the mortgage process and spread financial empowerment.
