Since 2006, I’ve worked in banking and lending, and in 2018 I found my true passion—helping people become homeowners through mortgage lending. I never planned on becoming a loan officer, but once I saw the impact it has on people’s lives, I was all in.
From my early days as a bank teller to now, I’ve built my career on listening, educating, and guiding. I especially enjoy working with first-time buyers, as well as FHA and VA borrowers. But no matter the loan type or size, every client gets the same attention and care. I want every person I work with to feel fully informed, confident, and supported from start to finish.
I was born and raised in Sparta, Tennessee and now live in Cookeville with my wife, Haley, and our son, Creed. We’re active at Stevens Street Baptist Church, where we help serve meals to hundreds of people every week. I also coach youth baseball and support causes close to our hearts, like Fellowship of Christian Athletes, YoungLife, and Park View Elementary.
Outside of work, I enjoy family time, community involvement, and friendly games of Ping Pong (I hold my own!)—and yes, I can throw a frisbee farther than most. Our dog Frank, a Catahoula Leopard, keeps life interesting too.
Whether you’re just starting your homebuying journey or ready to take the next step, I’m here to make the process clear, smooth, and stress-free.

I could have easily closed on my home within 3 weeks of being under contract. Everything with UHM came back next day it seemed, and if something was needing fixed it was done at that moment! We had a phenomenal experience, and Corey Austin is an incredible lender!

Simply amazing! Corey was in communication with us almost everyday to let us know where in the process we were and what and when he expected steps to be completed. It was beautifully streamlined process that made buying our new home a joy!
Vanessa N.
We were very satisfied with the customer service and help from Corey Austin. The process was very easy. Rates were also better from Union Home than other lenders we contacted. It was great to learn at closing that the loan wouldn't be sold off as with many companies.
